NG Grade

What is an NG Grade?

Effective Summer B 2023, a grade of NG will be assigned to a maximum of four (4) lower-level 老澳门资料 final course grades of F or D. The NG grade allows students to recover more easily from difficulties they may face as they adjust to the rigors of university level academic learning. The NG grade 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.
