Courses Taken on a Pass/Fail Basis

Orientation and Developmental Courses
Orientation and developmental community college courses may be offered on a pass-fail basis and shall be for non-degree credit. These courses are not used in calculating grade-point standing.

Student Choice
Students with at least 30 credit hours are not on academic probation may select a maximum of two elective courses, subject to certain restrictions, to be taken on a Pass-Fail basis. Credit hours successfully completed under this option will count toward graduation but will not be used in calculating grade point standing. Courses taken on a Pass-Fail basis shall be limited to those considered as elective in the student's program and such other courses which have been specifically approved for offering only on a Pass-Fail basis.

Students who select to enroll in these courses will be expected to participate fully in the courses and take all examinations. Students may enroll in Pass-Fail courses without satisfying course prerequisites.

Students may not change from a Pass-Fail basis, nor from a regular basis to a Pass-Fail basis, after the last date for entering an organized class.

Courses offered only on a Pass-Fail basis, remedial or developmental, or taken by special examination shall not be included in the maximum number of elective courses which a student may take under these provisions.
