Final Exam (FE) Policy

• The IHLs must ensure that no students shall pass a course if they fail in their final
examination of that course unless the continuous assessment approach adopted can
 demonstrate the attainment of the depth of knowledge. (pg 16 , EAC Standard
2017)
• It was endorsed in KBM 08/2019 that for all Kulliyah of Engineering courses:
1. The students are required to obtain at least 50% of the final examination in order to pass
the course
2. Students who obtain marks lower than 50% of the final examination, will obtain grade no
better than D and will be required to repeat the course.
