Letter Grade Conversion

Other Transcript Codes
Besides standard grades (A–F), the transcript may include other codes:
| Code | Meaning |

| NC | Audit Course / No Credit |
| I | Incomplete |
| EA | Course in Progress |
| NP | Not Passed |
| P | Passed |
| T | Transfer Credit |
| D | Withdrawal before midpoint of the semester |
| DF | Withdrawal after midpoint with failure |

Key Rules
“D” (Withdrawal): Student withdrew before the semester's midpoint.

“W”: Withdrawal within the allowed period, does not affect cGPA but is considered in SAP. Excessive W’s harm completion rate.
“I” (Incomplete): Allowed via a formal request. Students have 2 weeks after the end of the course to complete pending work unless more time is formally approved.
“P”: Indicates minimum course expectations were met. Not calculated in cGPA but counts as credits earned.
“NP”: Did not meet expectations. Not included in cGPA.
“F”: Failing grade, counted in the cGPA.
NC, EX, and T: Do not affect cGPA but count as attempted and/or completed credits.
“S”: Considered in SAP analysis.

Grades are final once recorded by the Registrar. However, students may appeal following the Grade Change and Appeal Policy.
