Awarded to students whose work indicates performance below minimum required standards.

Failing grades may also be awarded as follows:

• when a student drops the class after the fourth week of the semester and is doing failing work
• for administrative drops
• when a grade of I is not removed within one year.

The E cannot be awarded the first four weeks of the semester.

Awarded only when a student is registered in a course under the Pass/Fail option. The criteria for awarding this grade are the same as for the grade of E; therefore, a student must maintain minimum required standards.

Awarded at the end of the term when a course has been substantially completed. The I is not awarded in place of a failing grade or when the student is to repeat the course; in such a case, a grade other than I must be assigned.
