Pass/Fail

Effective Fall of 2007, Undergraduate Business students who are in good academic standing may take only one (1) course as pass/fail per semester including the summer session.

A maximum of twelve (12) total credits may be completed as pass/fail to count towards completion of the 120 degree credits required for the BBA.

The pass/fail privilege is for a Non-Business elective course. The following courses cannot be taken pass/fail:

• all business courses including those designated as "meets with," "cross-listed," and those taken during study abroad programs
• any requirement for the Business major or degree, including, but not limited to, pre-business and liberal studies requirements

A School of Business JUNIOR or SENIOR who is not on probation may elect a total of 12 pass/fail credits during the junior and senior years. The pass/fail grade will not be included when computing your GPA, but the pass/fail credits with S (Satisfactory) grades will apply toward graduation; S is the grade for A to C; U is the grade for D and F.

Students must complete a minimum of 12 graded credits in order to be eligible for the Dean's List.

The student must complete and submit the pass/fail privilege form to the Undergraduate Academic Services Office in 2020 Grainger Hall.  Please submit the completed pass/fail forms by the deadlines outlined below.
