Credit/No Credit (CR/NC) Grades: Mandatory

"CR/NC" grades are mandatory for thesis and normally used in projects, field work, internships, individual studies, or directed reading. As recommended by departments and approved by the College Dean, credit/no credit grades may be used in activity and laboratory courses, workshops, and selected seminars (colloquia). Students may accumulate a maximum of 60 semester units of Credit/No Credit grades toward a baccalaureate degree. A maximum of 40 percent of the units required in a graduate degree can be credit/no credit (e.g., 12 units in a 30 unit program).
