Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory Credit

Students with junior standing or above are permitted to register for an academic course on a satisfactory/unsatisfactory (S/U) option based on the following policies:

  1. Students must have an overall 2.00 grade point average in order to qualify.
  2. The S/U option may be used for courses that do not apply to a major or minor field. The student, however, may use this option if the course is in excess of the requirements for the major or minor field of specialization.
  3. The S/U option is not available for required essential studies or professional courses.
  4. Students may not change to, or from an S/U option after the last day to add classes.
  5. Prior learning credit, CLEP, or military credits (recorded as S/U), may be used toward the major and/or minor upon approval from the respective Division chair.
  6. S/U credit will not be used in determining honor points or honor point ratio.
  7. The traditional “C” or better will be considered satisfactory “S.”

Other courses in which S/U credit may be earned are listed in each department of this catalog. These courses may be taken upon the advice of the student’s advisor.
