All courses to be counted toward the BSCE degree must be taken for letter grades. The one exception to this rule is for transfer students who are required to take PHYS 296, 297, or 298 to make up for a lack of physics laboratories. These three courses are offered only under the pass/fail option.
Electives not to be counted toward your BSCE degree may, of course, be taken under one of the alternative grading modes such as pass/fail described in the Undergraduate Bulletin of Information . Core electives do count toward your degree and must be taken for a letter grade.
Officially withdrawing from a course is an action initiated by the student. This will result in a grade of ‘W', which will not affect your GPA. If the course is required for graduation you will, of course, have to enroll in it again and complete it.
Students who, for reasons beyond their control, are unable to complete their coursework during the quarter may receive a grade of Incomplete (I). Incompletes are intended for students experiencing illness or a family emergency. You must have a passing grade at the time you are given the Incomplete. You must complete the work during the following quarter in order to have the Incomplete changed to a letter grade. Otherwise, the grade will convert to an ‘F'. Please talk to your individual course instructor if you feel that you are in this situation.
