Spring 2020 Special Grading Option
At the end of the Spring 2020 term, from May 9-May 22, students may choose to convert their letter grade in any course to one of two new grades that have been created: SD (Satisfactory-Disruption) or UD (Unsatisfactory-Disruption).
Please know that health professions programs understand there will be a variety of assessments (i.e. grades) to reflect a student’s work while also recognizing the challenges both students and faculty face in the sudden adjustment to virtual classrooms. Schools are deciding how they will evaluate satisfactory/unsatisfactory grades when these are offered. Our conservative advice is to take pre-requisite courses for a grade when you have the option to do so.
