Pass/Fail Option

Students should consult their school bulletins to determine eligibility and restrictions on the pass/fail options. The responsibility for approval of the pass/fail requests, as well as special regulations affecting the option, will rest with the deans of the students' schools or divisions, under procedures established by the schools or divisions.

Students interested in taking classes under the pass/fail option should obtain pass/fail option forms from the deans of their schools. Undergraduate students in the College of Arts and Sciences should obtain the forms from their advisers in their major departments. Kelley School of Business students may obtain pass/fail option forms and instructions at the Information Window, Second Floor. University Division students should first obtain University Division pass/fail option forms from their academic advisers and return the completed forms to Maxwell Hall 030 in order to have the pass/fail option forms processed. Students in the School of Continuing Studies should obtain the form from the counselor in Owen Hall 202. All students should fill out the pass/fail option forms in full, obtain the appropriate signatures, and return them to the office of the deans of their schools by the published date (see the Official Calendar for the specific semester).

Instructors will not be notified by the Office of the Registrar about those students registering for the option. A grade of P is not counted in grade averages; a grade of F is included. A grade of P cannot be changed subsequently to a grade of A, B, C, or D.
