to enroll for CR/NC grading must be made prior to the end of the fourth week of instruction and the decision must be
recorded by the student by using the Web registration system.
2. Undergraduate Students. A student may not elect CR/NC graded coursework to satisfy requirements for the major
unless the courses have been designated CR/NC only. A maximum of 24 semester units at California State University,
Fresno of CR/NC evaluated credit, including all coursework taken CR/NC only, may be applied toward the degree.
3. Graduate Students. Credit for coursework earned through CR/NC in fall 1978 and in subsequent semesters may not be
applied toward the master's degree unless the course has been designated as available for CR/NC only by the Graduate
Committee. A maximum of 6 units of CR/NC only credit may be applied to a 30-unit master's degree program and a
maximum of 12 units of CR/NC only credit may be applied to a 60-unit program.
See the current Class Schedule for further information.
1. Master's degree candidates are reminded that a B (3.0) average is required in the master's degree program and for all
courses (related and unrelated; lower division, upper division, and graduate) taken concurrent with the master's degree
program.
2. Undergraduate students are reminded that a C (2.0) average is required for all college coursework completed, all courses
taken at California State University, Fresno, and all courses in the major in order to graduate with a baccalaureate degree.
Some majors are subject to more stringent grading requirements.
3. Master's degree candidates are remindedthat a D is not accepted toward any master's degree program.
4. A WU is assigned only for courses graded A through F. The course can be repeated and the new grade may be
substituted for the WU by petition, except for master's degree students. (See Repeating Courses.)
Incomplete (I). Incomplete (I). The symbol I (Incomplete Authorized) indicates that a portion of required coursework has
not been completed and evaluated in the prescribed time period due to unforeseen - but fully justified - reasons, and that there
is still a possibility of earning credit. Such reasons must meet the criteria of serious and compelling and occur late in the
semester. The grade of I is only appropriate when the student requesting it has completed a minimum of two-thirds of the work
for the course with a passing grade. The instructor of record retains the right to decide whether or not an I grade is appropriate.
It is the responsibility of the student to bring pertinent information to the attention of the instructor and to determine from the
instructor the remaining course requirements that must be satisfied to remove the incomplete. The faculty member should
complete the online incomplete contract detailing the work that needs to be completed. A final grade is assigned when the
work agreed upon has been completed and evaluated. Students may not enroll in a course for which they have an I grade.
Normally it is expected that the student will make up an I grade during the next semester; however, it must be made up within
one calendar year immediately following the last day of the semester/session during which it was assigned. This limitation
prevails whether or not the student maintains continuous enrollment.
Failure to complete the assigned work will result in the I being counted as an IC, or failing grade for grade point average
computation. An I grade not made up within one calendar year after the grade has been recorded is changed to an IC (or an NC
if CR/NC grading was approved).
Incomplete grades must be cleared before a degree is awarded. In the absence of the instructor who has assigned the
incomplete, a student seeking to make up this grade should consult the department chair.
A short-term extension of time may be granted with justification by contacting the Office of the Registrar prior to the last day
of the second semester/session.
Report in Progress (RP). The RP symbol is used in connection with courses that extend beyond one academic term. It
indicates that work in progress has been evaluated as satisfactory to date but that assignment of a final grade must await
completion of additional work. The RP may be used only in courses designated on the approved RP grade course list published
by the Office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. Cumulative enrollment in units attempted may not
exceed the total number applicable to the student's educational objective.
While completing work on an RP or an I, graduate students are required to be continuously enrolled at California State
University, Fresno, every semester until the awarding of the degree. Graduate students enrolled in Project (298) or Thesis
(299) receive RP grades at the end of the first semester of enrollment and are advised to complete work on the culminating
experience during four additional semesters, subject to the five-year overall time limit for completion of all master's degree
requirements. In addition, if an RP in 298 or 299 is not replaced by a final grade within two years as recommended, the
student's major department may require him or her to reregister for the course. (Search Graduate Studies.)
Withdrawal Unauthorized (WU). The symbol WU indicates that an enrolled student did not complete course requirements
and did not properly withdraw from the course. It is used when, in the opinion of the instructor, completed assignments or
