It is included in attempted credits but not in the grade point index)

Grade Reports

Grades are available online through MyCCRI and may be mailed to students at the end of each semester provided all financial obligations to CCRI are met. Students enrolled in modular courses may view their grades online through MyCCRI and may receive a grade report at the conclusion of the course(s). In addition, mid-term warning letters are sent to students (enrolled in 15-week courses) who may be in academic difficulty. Students are responsible for discussing with the instructor how the grade was determined.
