Explanation:
Pass/No credit
The purpose of the Pass/No Credit option is to allow you to take courses outside of your normal curriculum or minor program which you might otherwise not consider taking because of grade considerations.

The credits earned on a Pass/No Credit basis count toward the credits required for graduation but are not included in the calculation of the cumulative grade-point average.

Example sentence(s):
  • Undergraduate students may elect to take courses on a Pass or No Credit basis, for which the grade is either “P” (Pass) or “NC” (Fail).
