Summer Term Examination Rules and Regulations

SUMMER TERM shall be offered with effect from Academic year 2023-24 after the completion of EVEN semester exams, with a provision for classes and exams of both ODD and EVEN semesters. Concerned students shall be required to register for the Summer Term within the stipulated dates and pay the Summer Term fee as specified by University authorities. A student will be eligible to apply for Summer term if he/she has registered in the regular semester and paid all requisite dues. Furthermore, the minimum 40 % attendance in a subject during regular semester must be obtained by the student to be eligible to attend Summer Term classes in that subject.

The students having shortage of attendance during the regular End semester exams shall be required to undergo Summer term classes in that subject (subject to its availability), and appear in the Summer Term exams after the end of Summer Term to clear their backlog. However, students who have already fulfilled the attendance criterion but obtained backlog in the regular semester can appear only in the Summer End-term exams.
For students appearing in Summer End-term exam after attending Summer term classes in order to make up their shortage of attendance, one grade lower shall be awarded as compared to the grading scheme of a regular semester, as below:

Grade based upon Summer Term Marks	Actual Grade awarded
EX	A
A	B
B	C
D	P
P	P

Note: Pass Grade “P” will not be lowered in Summer Term result

For students appearing only in Summer End-term exams to clear their backlog, the grading scheme as of a regular semester shall be used.

Maximum ten subjects will be permitted for registration in a Summer term.
Subjects to be offered during Summer Term shall be identified by respective Departments depending upon the number of backlogs in concerned subjects and the availability of faculty member during the Summer Term.
Right to offer any subject in Summer Term shall rest with the concerned Department.
Only theory subjects shall be offered during the Summer Term. In extraordinary circumstances, concerned Departments may propose practical exams for the Summer Term. The decision of Vice Chancellor shall be final and binding in such cases.

Grading System for JIS University Programmes

Academic performance of a student shall be based on the “Absolute Grading System”, wherein the percentage of marks obtained by the student in a course shall be converted to a Letter Grade.
JIS University shall adopt Absolute Grading system for its various academic programmes, as below:

For batches admitted in AY 2023-24 and before
The existing Grading Table for all regular and backlog exams of above batches shall be used:

Range of Marks	Letter Grade	Grade Point	Performance
90 ≤ Marks ≤ 100	EX	10	Excellent
80 ≤ Marks < 90	A	9	Very Good
70 ≤ Marks < 80	B	8	Good
60 ≤ Marks < 70	C	7	Fair
50 ≤ Marks < 60	D	6	Average
40 ≤ Marks < 50	P	5	Pass (Theory)
45 ≤ Marks < 50	P	5	Pass (Practical & Sessional)
Marks < 40, Absent	F	0	Fail (Theory)
Marks < 45, Absent	F	0	Fail (Practical & Sessional)
---	W	---	Withheld

For 2024-25 admission batch and onwards
The following Grading Table shall be adopted for batches admitted in AY 2024-25 and onwards.

Range of Marks	Letter Grade	Grade Point	Performance
90 ≤ Marks ≤ 100	O	10	Outstanding
80 ≤ Marks < 90	A	9	Very Good
70 ≤ Marks < 80	B	8	Good
60 ≤ Marks < 70	C	7	Fair
50 ≤ Marks < 60	D	6	Average
40 ≤ Marks < 50	P	5	Pass (Theory)
45 ≤ Marks < 50	P	5	Pass (Practical & Sessional)
Marks < 40, Absent	F	0	Fail (Theory)
Marks < 45, Absent	F	0	Fail (Practical & Sessional)
---	W	---	Withheld

The Letter Grade and its Grade Point shall indicate the overall performance in all assessment components of a course.
After converting actual marks obtained in various subjects into corresponding Grades and Grade Points, the academic performance shall only be represented in terms of Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA), except in academic programmes regulated by Statutory Bodies. In CGPA based evaluation system, actual marks shall not be indicated on Grade Cards and other such documents issued to the students.
For calculating Equivalent percentage from the CGPA, students shall be required to use the Multiplying Factor as specified by the University.
In case of Laboratory-only/Seminar/Project courses, student must earn a minimum overall 45% marks (including all components of Laboratory-only course), subject to obtaining minimum 30 % marks in the End-semester practical component.
For non-credit courses, “Satisfactory” (S) or “Unsatisfactory” (U) Grade shall be awarded, which shall not be counted for the computation of SGPA/CGPA. Student must score minimum overall 40 % marks for getting “Satisfactory” Grade in a non-credit course.
For PhD Course work examination, the PhD scholar must score minimum overall 50 % marks (including both Comprehensive Internal Assessment and End-semester component), subject to obtaining minimum 30 % marks in the End-semester exam.

For academic programmes regulated by Statutory bodies such as PCI, NCTE, ICAR, NMC etc., their respective guidelines shall prevail as minimum guiding parameters.
