Important Academic Update!
Today is the last day to withdraw from a course with a `W` on your transcript. Stay full-time even if you drop below 12 credits!
Also, it`s the final day to opt for Pass/Fail on a course. Remember, if you’re putting a course on P/F, you cannot use that course to fulfill a requirement such as a General Education course, a course for the major, or a related course. If you pass the course, you will still earn elective credits which will apply toward your 120 total credits necessary for graduation. Because there is no grade, passing the course will not impact your GPA. If you fail a course designated Pass/Fail, then you will NOT earn credits and the final grade will not be calculated in your GPA. Remember, only 1 course per semester, and submit requests by 11:59 pm on 11/13/23. Make informed decisions about your academic journey!
