Capella’s Academic Recognition Policy is founded solely upon achievements in grade point average, which is factored with an A-F grading system and a course’s credit value.  FlexPath is competency based, direct assessment, and self-paced, it has neither A-F grading nor fixed terms (which standardizes academic credit), therefore there is no GPA in FlexPath.  Even though FlexPath requires strong academic performance, FlexPath learners are not eligible for formal academic recognition, such as Dean’s list and graduation with honors.
