The following grades for courses have quality point value and figure in the computation of the grade point average.
- A = 4.0 quality points
- A- = 3.7 quality points
- B+ = 3.3 quality points
- B = 3.0 quality points
- B- = 2.7 quality points
- C+ = 2.3 quality points
- C = 2.0 quality points
- D = 1.0 quality points
- (Note: There are no grades of C+ or D for graduate (500-899) courses. However, a C+ or D are possible grades for graduate students enrolled in courses numbered 100-499).
- F = 0.0 quality points
The following grades for undergraduate courses do not figure in the computation of the grade point average:
-
NC - No Credit. (Audit)
- S - Satisfactory includes SA, SB, SC grades. Equivalent to a C or better.
- T - Temporary. A designation given at the end of the term when a course is scheduled to be continued beyond one term.
- U - Unsatisfactory includes UD, UF grades. Equivalent to a D or F.
- W - Authorized Withdrawal.
- X and I Grades. The grade of "X" can be assigned by the instructor when an attending/participating student has stopped attending/participating without notification and has not completed all assignments for reasons that cannot be determined by the end of the grading period. An "X" automatically becomes an F if not resolved by the last day of instruction of the following semester.
The grade of Incomplete (I) is given when the work in a course has been generally passing, but when some specifically required task has not been completed through no fault of the student. An "I" grade can be assigned by the instructor when all three of the following conditions are met:
- Student is regularly attending/participating in the class and has the potential to pass the course;
- Student has not completed all assignments and has stopped attending/participating for reasons deemed justified by the instructor;
- The student has notified the instructor prior to the end of the grading period.
The date assigned by the faculty member for completion of the work for undergraduate courses cannot be later than the last day of classes of the next term following the term in which the Incomplete grade was received. (The time limit may extend up to four weeks into the fall semester for Incomplete grades received during the spring semester.) For all cases, the time limit applies whether the student is enrolled or not. If a grade change is not submitted by the end of the time limit, the Incomplete becomes an F.
As of Spring 2005 the following grades are no longer available for grading.
- ** - No Recorded Grade.
- NA - Never Attended Grade.
