agree  Lydianette Soza
42 mins
  -> Thank you, Lydianette.
neutral  Charles Davis: I'm not so sure, Dariusz; I think "complete" may not be enough. You find things like this sometimes (from Texas State): "F (Failing) – awarded to student who completed the course but failed to achieve the course objectives"
57 mins
  -> I think your example is a rare exception, Charles. Generally, "(successful) completion" implies "meeting all course objectives and passing the course." Here we also deal with all courses, so "completed" will be understood as "passed".
agree  Yvonne Gallagher: Has successfully completed all courses=meets all requirements prescribed

  -> Precisely. Thank you, Yvonne.
