The form to be used for this extension is the Petition for Waiver of College Regulations. The petition must be approved by the instructor and the department chair and forwarded to the Registrar's Office. The SP symbol is used in connection with courses that extend beyond one academic term. It indicates that work is in progress and has been evaluated and found to be satisfactory to date, but that assignment of a precise grade must await completion of additional work. Cumulative enrollment in units attempted may not exceed the total number applicable to the student's educational objective.
Work is to be completed within a stipulated time period.
No other grading symbol, including F, I, AU, SP, RD, CR, NC, carries grade point credit. Summer session and extension units are evaluated on a basis of hours to units equal to those above, but adapted to the special schedules of these programs. CEUs may neither be applied to nor substituted for graduation requirements. One CEU is earned for 10 hours of instruction. San Francisco State University policy requires an evaluation of student learning for all courses which award CEUs.
