33 NG—No Grade Reported * The instructor has not yet reported a grade for the course. This symbol is used for the semester Report of Grades only. A course without a grade will not appear on the student's transcript. T—Temporary Grade * The course is being continued in the subsequent semester and a grade and credits will be calculated when the course is complete and a letter grade has been issued. The "T" grade is approved for specific courses only. • In the case where a student requires continued individualized instruction and advising by a faculty member, the student must register for the course again, and the original "T" will remain until a grade is submitted. UW—Unofficial Withdrawal * Indicates the student stopped attending the course without officially withdrawing. Note: UWs are calculated as E's in the student's semester and cumulative grade point averages. W— Withdrawal * The student withdrew from the course in the interval comprising the fourth to ninth week of the term. Withdrawals are not allowed after the ninth week of instruction. Changing of Grades * Grades may be changed only by the instructor who submitted the original grade. ♦ Students who feel their work has been evaluated unfairly should contact the instructor. • Students who choose to complete a course on a credit/no credit basis may petition the registrar's office to have a CR grade replaced by the earned letter grade if they subsequently change their major or minor and need the letter grade to meet graduation requirements. Repeat Courses * Students who repeat a course should notify the Records Office and complete a Repeat Form. ♦ Each course (unless specifically listed as repeatable for credit in the course description) may be used only once in cumulative hours and GPA. • A course will appear on the transcript each time it is completed, but it will be counted only once in total hours and only the most recent letter grade received will be used to calculate the GPA (CR is not considered a letter grade and will not cause a previous grade to be discounted). ♦ Once a bachelor's degree has been posted to a student's perma nent record, courses used for that degree may not be repeated to improve the GPA. Academic Renewal Academic renewal allows students the opportunity to recalculate their GPA by discounting grades of D+ or lower which were earned six or more years prior to the date of petition. • Courses completed prior to the awarding of a certificate, associate or bachelor's degree do not qualify for academic renewal. * Students must be currently enrolled or have been enrolled during the previous term. ♦ Academic renewal may be requested only once during a student's academic career. ♦ Applications for academic renewal and detailed policy informa tion are available at the Records Office.
