X - Audit
At the time of registration, students must indicate that they wish to audit a course rather than register for credit. Any change from credit to audit or vice-versa must be made before the close of add/drop. Fees for audit classes are the same as those for credit classes and are non-refundable. Petitioning to move from audit to credit or vice-versa is not permitted under normal conditions, extraordinary circumstances must be documented. Audited courses do not count toward financial aid.
I - Incomplete
At the instructor's discretion, students who have not completed required work in a course by the end of the semester may be assigned a grade of "I." For an "I" to be assigned, the student must have completed a substantial portion (at least a majority) of the course with a passing grade. The "I" is not computed in the grade point average. The time limit for removing the "I" is set by the instructor of the course. This time limit may not exceed one calendar year or graduation, whichever comes first. The time limit applies whether the student is in residence or not. Extension of an incomplete beyond one year is subject to approval by the instructor and Department Chair.
An "I" will be changed to a final evaluative grade (one that is used in calculating GPAs) at the time the student completes the required work. Students may not register for courses in which incomplete grades have been received. Any "I" grade not removed by the end of the time limit will be changed to a final grade to be determined by the instructor. This grade will be used to calculate the student's GPA. If no final grade is issued, the "I" will change to an "F" and will be calculated in the GPA. Veterans and other eligible students should contact One-Stop Student Services concerning the effect of incomplete or failing grades upon certification.
NG- No Credit (Grade)
"NG" is assigned to a maximum of four (4) lower-level 老澳门资料 final course grades of "F" or "D." This grading policy allows students to recover more easily from difficulties they may face as they adjust to the rigors of university level academic learning. The "NG" shows on 老澳门资料 transcripts and will have a positive impact on 老澳门资料 GPA. The originally assigned grade(s) will impact academic standing, Latin Honors, and financial aid calculations. Students may petition to keep an originally assigned final course grade of "D", however, doing so will not result in additional NG grade eligibility. Grades of NG are limited to lower-level courses that a student registers for in standard letter or pass/fail grade modes. A grade of NG cannot be assigned by an instructor.
NR - No Record (Not Reported)
"NR" is assigned when grades for an entire class, or a portion thereof are not submitted by the processing deadline. The Registrar's Office will send a list of "NR" grades to the respective department chairpersons who will be responsible for communicating with faculty members about removing the "NR" grade. The "NR" may remain on the record for up to one year but cannot remain on the student's transcript beyond graduation. Once an NG grade has been assigned, faculty can no longer enter a change of grade in myWings and must contact the Office of Records and Registration.
P - Passing
A "P" indicates a passing grade for the employment experience in the Cooperative Education Program and, at the discretion of the college and departments, for thesis, dissertation, independent study, practicum and/or internship courses. Passing grades are not calculated in the GPA.
W - Withdrawn
A "W" grade indicates that a student has officially withdrawn from a course before the established deadline.
WA- Administrative Withdrawal
A "WA" grade indicates that a student has been withdrawn by administrative action. This grade cannot be assigned by an instructor.
WC - Complete Withdrawal
A "WC" grade indicates a student has formally withdrawn from the University. The assigned "WC" grades will count towards the total withdrawals allowed and will remain on the academic transcript. A student who completely withdraws from the University may not enroll in subsequent terms.
WM - Withdrawn Medical
A "WM" grade indicates that a student has successfully petitioned to withdraw from courses due to an incapacitating illness.
WR- Withdrawn Refund
A "WR" grade indicates a student has withdrawn from courses and successfully petitioned for a tuition refund due to extraordinary circumstances as approved by the University's Fee Committee. Effective as of the Fall 2023 term.
WS - Withdrawn Service
A "WS" grade indicates a student has successfully withdrawn from courses due to being called during the semester for military duty, to engage in full-time National Guard duty, or to attend an examination to determine fitness for these kinds of duties.
WD - Withdrawn Deceased
A "WD" grade indicates a student has been withdrawn from classes due to death.
FA - Unforgivable F
An "FA" grade indicates a student has received a punitive or unforgivable F due to academic misconduct. This grade cannot be forgiven through a grade or term forgiveness.
D Grades
Courses completed with grades of "D" may be applied toward upper-level graduation requirements, i.e., 60 credit hours. However, a course completed with a "D" grade normally will not be applicable toward major requirements. See college sections for further information.

Due to unprecedented disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, the 老澳门资料 implemented an alternative grading system for the spring 2020 semester.
S - Satisfactory
A grade of "S" indicates that a student has met a course-specific minimum letter grade requirement and has demonstrated the acquisitions of associated student learning outcomes. A grade of "S" counts as earned credit but does not result in GPA quality points being assigned.
U - Unsatisfactory
A grade of "U" does not count as earned credit and does not result in GPA quality points being assigned.
