Note: AU, CR, I, P, NP, TC, W, and WF are used on the Academic Record but have no point values and are not computed in the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) .
"C" is the minimum grade in the General Education Program.
“C+” is the minimum passing grade in the core Nursing and Dental Hygiene Programs.
“C*” grades in core Nursing, and core Dental Hygiene courses reflect that the course has not been successfully completed.
“P” or "NP" are the grades issued for all Nursing Clinicals, Global Studies/Symposium, and Capstone courses (e.g. NURS 492 and NURS 493).

Each academic program has unique prerequisite requirements. Please see the specific program section for additional information.
