Knowing the tough grading policy, how will my child be able to compete with other students who graduate with higher grade point averages?
Saint Anselm has a made a serious effort to cap grade inflation. This philosophy reflects our belief in a rigorous academic program based on fairness, equality, and ethics. We actively promote and market our high standards to employers and graduate schools. While there are organizations that use grade point averages as a screening tool, most feel they are only one factor to consider when evaluating the qualifications of a potential candidate. It is important that students develop themselves beyond their academic program through practical and leadership experiences. Students possessing a diverse background of academics and practical accomplishments are highly marketable and actively recruited.
