At least one midterm exam is conducted for each course. Students' success in the courses they take is evaluated in two stages: a midterm exam and a final exam. In addition to midterm exams, quizzes, projects, and other activities deemed appropriate by the instructor may be conducted. The number of these activities and their contribution to the success grade are specified in the course plan by the instructor. When determining the passing grade, the midterm exam has a 40% impact, and the final exam has a 60% impact. All exams are evaluated out of 100 points. When calculating the student's success grade, the score is converted to a letter grade in the relative system.

To be considered successful in a course, a student must receive at least a (CC) letter grade. Students with a GPA of at least 2.00 are also considered successful in courses where they receive (DC) and (DD) grades. Students who do not have any failed courses but have a GPA below 2.00 must retake their (DC) and (DD) courses to raise their GPA above 2.00 in order to graduate.
