Credit/No Credit Grading Option
Most CSM courses are graded on the basis of the standard letter
grades (A, B, C, D, F). Some courses are graded on a Credit
(CR) or No Credit (NC) basis, and are so designated in the
schedule of classes. Still other courses offer the student
the choice between letter and Credit/No Credit grading; students
electing the Credit/No Credit option in such courses must
submit the appropriate form to the Office of Admissions and
Records within the first 30% of the duration of the course.
Changes are not permitted thereafter.
Incomplete Grades
A final grading symbol of I (Incomplete) may be assigned in case of incomplete academic work due to unforeseeable, emergency and justifiable reasons. Conditions for removal are set forth by the instructor in a written record which also indicates the grade to be assigned if the student fails to meet the stated conditions. The student receives a copy of this record, and a copy is filed in the Office of Admissions and Records. A final grade is assigned by the instructor when the stipulated work has been completed and evaluated. If the work is not completed within the prescribed time period, the grade previously determined by the instructor is entered in the permanent record.
An I (Incomplete) must be made up no later than one year following the end of the term in which it was assigned. The student does not re-enroll in the course in order to do the make-up work. |
