The Credit-No Credit Option may be chosen during early registration through the last day allowed for dropping a course without academic penalty.

To be valid, the Credit-No Credit Option form must be properly approved and deposited in the Office of Admissions and Records. A registered student s GPA is computed at the end of every term and reported in the semester grade report, which is made available to the student about 10 days after the final day of examinations.
Grades are also available to the student on the web.
The GPA does not include course work transferred from other universities or colleges. Traveling Scholar credit, and courses taken while registered in GC 399. A student is required by the Graduate College to maintain a minimum GPA of 2.75 in order to continue in an advanced degree program, and must have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.75 to graduate. Many departments, however, require a minimum of 3.0 or higher, and if this is the case, their minimum becomes the minimum enforced by the Graduate College. A student who completes a minimum of three units of graded course work with a GPA below the enforced minimum will receive a warning letter.
