Australian colleges and universities (including Wesley Institute) use the following scale:

High Distinction (HD): Performance that meets all course objectives in such an exceptional way and with such marked excellence that it deserves the highest level of recognition.

Distinction (D): Performance that clearly deserves a high level of recognition as excellent & superior achievement in the course.

Credit (C): Performance that is substantially better than would normally be expected of competent students in the course.

Pass (P): Performance that satisfies course objectives.

Fail (F): Unsatisfactory performance.
