Pass/No Pass Grading Option for Spring 2021

For the spring quarter, undergraduate and graduate quarter students in participating colleges and schools may opt into the Pass/No Pass (P/NP) grading option for any full-term courses beginning on April 19, 2021 and continue to make adjustments until 11:59 PM EDT on June 12, 2021.

There are many factors for students to consider before choosing the Pass/No Pass option for any of their courses, including potential consequences related to Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for financial aid, financial scholarship requirements, overall financial aid, time to degree and academic standing, and postgraduate study requirements and opportunities.

Please review the Pass/No Pass FAQ on the Provost's website for additional details.
