Pass, D, F Grading Option
A letter grade for every student will be entered by the faculty member. Subject to the limitations described below, a student may choose to be graded on a Pass, D, F system whereby a grade of A, B, or C (including pluses and minuses) is entered on the student`s transcript as a Pass. A grade of D or F is in all cases recorded as such. The Pass, D, F option is available each term and must be exercised separately for each course for which the student does not wish to have a letter grade entered. The limitations on the Pass, D, F system are as follows: (1) required courses and clinics may not be taken on a Pass, D, F system; (2) a student may opt for Pass, D, F only once each term; and (3) no more than 12 credits in which the student opted for a Pass, D, F designation (not including credits for which grading on that basis is mandatory, such as journal participation credits) can be applied to the degree. To be eligible to graduate with honors, a student must have 68 law school credits of letter grades. Therefore, graduating students who have 16 or more credits of Pass may not be eligible to graduate with honors.
