Academic grading in the Philippines

STI College Grade Point System Other universities, such as the Ateneo de Manila University and its sister schools, use the letter grade system with varied grade equivalence range. The grading system of San Beda University is zero-based in nature which implies no transmutations are to be made. The description mentioned in the table was based on Tarlac State University (TSU) Student Handbook. In addition, the grade of "INC" is given if a student whose class standing for the semester is passing, fails to take the final examination or fails to complete other course requirements for valid reason (Chap. 8, Sec. 1, TSU Student Handbook). == Grade point scale (4.00–1.00) ==

While most courses at De La Salle University-Manila maintain the above table for a passing grade of 60%, there are some courses where the passing grade can also be 50%, 55%, 65%, or 70%, in which the grade point equivalences would vary.
