Credit Prefixes


The number of credits appearing on course records and registration cards may be preceded by a letter prefix as follows:

E.  Course excluded from credit toward a degree; all course requirements must be completed and a regular grade is assigned. These courses are not included when calculating a student's GPA.

G.  A 300- or 400-level undergraduate course for which credit toward the graduate degree sought has been approved. This option is not available to nondegree students.

J.  Course counts toward a degree but has no GPA points.

 

K.  Course counts in the GPA but is excluded from credit toward a degree.

N.  Course taken "not-for-credit." The final examination is not required. A final grade of S (satisfactory) or U (unsatisfactory) is assigned.

Graduate students registering for undergraduate courses are subject to the credit prefix rules of the undergraduate division offering the course.
