In courses with over 25 J.D. students and 25% or more Graduate Legal Studies (GLS) students, the curve will be applied to the J.D. students only.

Any deviations from the curve in courses with an enrollment of 25 or more students require a written explanation to the Associate Academic Dean prior to the time grades are submitted. Grades should not be entered until approval is received.
