Can I take courses on a pass/fail basis?
Students may elect to take up to 12 credits of work in which the
announced grading system is A-F on a Pass-Fail basis according to
the following guidelines:
-
Such election cannot be taken in courses that apply to the
major, minor, or Education concentration.
-
Prorations for transfer students will be administered by the
Office of the Registrar.
-
Students electing a Pass-Fail grade must indicate this option
during the seventh and eighth weeks of classes in a thirteen-week
term and during the third and fourth week in a six-week term.
Pass-Fail forms may be picked up in the Office of the Registrar,
McGraw Hall, room 113, and must be filed with the Office of the
Registrar during the appropriate period. The advisor must sign
all Pass-Fail forms.
-
Instructors are not to be notified of the
student’s choice and will submit letter grades for
all students. The Office of the Registrar will convert the grades
for those students electing the Pass-Fail option.
-
Passing (P) grades do not affect the GPA. However, credits
are awarded towards earned credit hours. Failing (F or WF) grades
affect the GPA and no credit is granted.
