Credit/No Credit - Student Selected

Students have the option to include a total of up to four (4) courses (with the exception of those placed on Credit/No Credit during the Spring 2020, Fall 2020, and Spring 2021 terms) to be taken on a credit/no credit basis, in addition to University-Designated*** credit/no credit courses. 

Only one (1) student-selected credit/no credit course may be taken in any semester.

Please Note:

  • *For Students under LAC (Admitted prior to Fall 2024): Courses in the student's Major, Minor, Concentration, Foreign Language and all Tier II and Tier III requirements will no longer fulfill those requirements if placed on CR/NC.
  • **For Students under ELAC (Admitted Fall 2024 or later): Courses in the student's Major, Minor, Concentration, and Foreign Language requirements will no longer fulfill those requirements if placed on CR/NC.
  • Per the Repeat Course Policy, a repeated course cannot be placed on credit/no credit. It can only be repeated for a letter grade.
  • If the work is above passing, the course is recorded on the permanent record as Credit (CR*). If the work is below passing, the course is recorded on the permanent record as No Credit (NC*).
  • The grade for a course placed on credit/no credit does not affect the grade point average (GPA).
  • Please note the Credit/No Credit deadlines (View deadlines). Requests can be submitted anytime during the semester leading up to the deadline.
