MBA/MAcc Grade Requirements

Grade Requirements for Graduation

If a MBA or MAcc student receives 60 percent or more of his or her cumulative grades as "Low Pass" or "Fail", the student will not be eligible to graduate.

Academic Discipline

A student's academic standing is reviewed at the completion of each term enrolled in the Ross School of Business. When students are found to be below the required grade calculations, those students are notified by Academic Services and in some cases may be brought to a faculty Committee for review and possible withdrawal from the program.

  • If a Full-Time MBA or MAcc student receives 60 percent or more of his or her grades as "Low Pass" or "Fail" in any one of the first three terms, that student’s record is reviewed, and the student may be placed on Academic Review Status or may be asked to withdraw from the program.
  • For Evening MBA students, if 60 percent or more of grades in any band of 15 credits is at Low Pass or Fail, the student's record will be reviewed for Academic Review Status or required withdrawal.

In addition, ANY grade of "Fail" also shall result in review of the record for possible disciplinary action ranging from being placed on Academic Review Status through dismissal from the program. If a student earns a grade of "Fail" in a core course, the course must be repeated to meet degree requirements.

Students asked to withdraw may appeal the decision. Students who have been required to withdraw may petition to be readmitted in a subsequent term. The appeal must contain documentation as to why circumstances have changed, to allow for successful completion of the degree.
