Conditional Grades and Other Symbols


IN (Incomplete)May be assigned at the discretion of an instructor who believes that an extension of time is warranted for a student whose work is incomplete at the end of the semester.

NG (No Grade). The NG grade is assigned by the Office of the Registrar. It is used when either the faculty member has left the grade blank or the student is credited with a blank grade because of a computer error. If a student who receives an NG grade fails to clear up the problem within the following semester, the NG grade will convert to an F, and the student's cumulative grade-point average will be recalculated accordingly.

P/NC (Pass/No Credit). Graduate programs may offer courses on a Pass/No Credit basis. A nonnumerical grade of Pass or No Credit is assigned to any student who has registered for his or her course on this basis.

S/U (Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory)Used for 700-level courses of research carrying credit or in regular courses taken not-for-credit.

Time Limits for Incompletes. Work must be completed and a change of grade submitted within 12 months after the end of the course. After a year, no change may be made, and the Incomplete will remain on the student's permanent record. If a graduate student in the Graduate School–Newark has 12 or more credits of coursework incomplete (IN), he or she will not be permitted to register for further courses unless the dean grants a waiver.

W (Withdrawal). Used when a student has withdrawn with permission of the proper authority.
