In addition to the general grade average standard discussed in the preceding section, standards may be established for satisfactory progress in individual courses or sequences. At present the only such policy applies to the Public Health Biostatistics sequence PUBHBIO 6210-6211:                            

Biostatistics Sequence Grade Policy:

A grade of B- or higher is required in Public Health (PUBHLTH) 6001 or Public Health Biostatistics (PUBHBIO) 6210 in order to enroll in Public Health Biostatistics (PUBHBIO) 6211. A grade of B- or higher is required in Public Health Biostatistics (PUBHBIO) 6211 in order to enroll in Public Health Biostatistics (PUBHBIO) 7220 or PUBHBIO 7255. Any student who does not meet this standard is expected to repeat the course in which the grade was too low. Instructors have the option of permitting enrollment by persons who have not met this expectation, but this will be done only if the student has provided evidence to satisfy the instructor that the student is ready to make satisfactory progress in the next course.
