Two important Fall 2020 academic deadlines have been extended:

Dropping a course without a grade of W:

The last day to drop a course from the current term without a grade of W has been extended to December 18. This deadline applies to full-semester courses, POT B courses, and non-standard courses with an end date after December 1, 2020. Most course drops can be made using Student-Self Service. Students who want to drop a course without a W for a Fall 2020 course that has an end date before December 1, 2020, may make a request through the Graduate College petition process.

Electing Credit/No-Credit:

The last day to elect Credit/No-Credit for a course is now January 5, 2021.

The Credit/No-Credit grading option is available for courses with standard letter grading (A-F).

As part of the emergency academic policies approved by the Academic Senate in EP.21.037: Election of Credit/No-Credit for courses this term will not count toward applicable minimums as outlined in the Student Code Section 3-105. This includes the limit on the number of credit hours that can be taken as credit/no credit during a semester. In courses in which Credit/No-Credit is elected and Credit is earned (letter grades of C- and higher), the credit is applicable toward degree requirements.
