The South Carolina Uniform Grading Scale is a huge factor in out-of-state student acceptance. Grade point averages are an integral feature of acceptance or denial to college. S.C. uses a 7 point scale compared to out-of-state 10 point scales. Our state has set our students up for failure. An 80 in S.C. is a C on a 7 point scale or a B on a 10 point scale. How are our students to compete when we have unfairly set them up to be non-competitive. This is industry corruption at its finest. Colleges are business industries and will protect the bottom line and their national profiles by manipulating secondary policies. It's all about the money!
