| A Pass/No Credit grading option is available to students in good academic standing in respect of elective courses. An individual faculty member may at his/her discretion exclude any or all of his/her courses from this option. Although a student receiving a grade of "P" will receive full credit for the course, this grade is not counted in calculating the student's grade point average. A grade of "NC" is entered for a grade of C or less, indicating no credit earned. The instructor will report grades in the usual manner, and the Registrar's Office will convert the grade to Pass/No credit.
A student may elect to take no more than two (2) courses, for no more than eight (8) credits, on a Pass/No credit basis during his/her academic career. No more than one course may be taken on a Pass/No credit basis during any academic year, consisting of fall, spring and summer semesters. In the fall and spring semesters, a student must make the Pass/No credit election within one month after the first class meeting. he deadline for exercising the option in the summer semester is two (2) weeks after the first class meeting.
The Pass/No credit option, once elected, may not be revoked, whether before or after the grade has been turned in. Students who elect the Pass/No credit option must comply with the attendance requirement and satisfy all other course requirements, including sitting for the final examination.
