The University of Â鶹´«Ã½ has officially adopted a Credit/No Credit option for spring 2020 grades. FAQs on the new policy, one for faculty and one for students, are available.
The university adopted the Credit/No Credit option because of the exceptional circumstances created by the COVID-19 pandemic and sudden transition to online courses. It is optional, so students can still choose to take a letter grade.
The Credit/No Credit option was created through a process that sought to incorporate the best interests of the students, the recognition of the critical role faculty play in assessing students¡¯ mastery of course material and acknowledgement of the technical constraints of our system.
