Limited Pass/Fail Option
Pass/Fail (P/F) Option
Undergraduate students may take up to one course per semester and a total of four courses for P/F credit during their college career. Courses passed earn a P, which counts toward graduation credits but not GPA. Failing grades will be recorded as F and will count in GPA. Approval by your faculty mentor or advisor is required, and submission of the form must occur within the allowed period as noted in the Academic Calendar.
