COVID-19 SPRING 2020 & SUMMER 2020 QUARTERS - PASS/NO PASS INFORMATION FOR SCHOOL OF EDUCATION

The Academic Senate at UCI, which governs academic regulations at UC Irvine, has authorized adjustments to existing undergraduate regulations on Pass/No Pass grades (P/NP) for the Spring 2020 and Summer 2020 quarter only as follows:
​

• All undergraduate courses will offer P/NP grading as an option. It is the student's choice as to whether they wish to take the course for letter grade or P/NP.  
• Academic deans and departments are encouraged, but not required, to allow courses taken P/NP to fulfill school and major requirements.
• Students will be able to change their grade options, both letter grade to P/NP and P/NP to letter grade through the end of the 10th week (before 5PM)
• Courses taken P/NP will not count toward the 12-unit overall graduation cap on these courses.
• Students on academic probation may enroll in courses with the P/NP option in the Spring 2020 and Summer 2020 term. 
• Courses to complete General Education Category I: Writing must be completed with a grade of "C" or better ("P" for pass, if taking it for P/NP)  
• Please note: The Senate recently extended these adjustments to allow students to take certain Writing courses—Writing 37, 39A, and 39AP—on a P/NP basis.

The UCI Registrar’s Office has put together pertinent information related to this topic here: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
​
PLEASE NOTE: For SPRING QUARTER 2020 and SUMMER 2020 ONLY, the School of Education will allow courses taken for a "P" (Pass) to count towards Major Requirements that normally need to be taken for a letter grade. It is important when making the decision to take a course P/NP or for a letter grade that you keep in mind the following:

• To receive a "P" (Pass) and to get credit/units, you must earn a grade of "C" or better. However, if a course is taken for a letter grade, the minimum grade needed for credit would be at least a "D-" in most courses. This is especially important to note for graduating students who are trying to fulfill their last requirements to graduate. You will need to weigh the risk of taking a course P/NP and not receiving any credit if your earn the equivalent to a C- grade or lower.
• Writing courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or better (or a "P" if taking the course for P/NP).
• If you are retaking a course that was originally for a LETTER GRADE, you must retake the course for a LETTER GRADE ONLY - there are no exceptions.
• P/NP courses will not affect your GPA, including your major GPA. If your UCI and/or major GPA are below a 2.0, getting a P will not raise your GPA.
• We recommend that you see how you are doing in the courses throughout the quarter. You have until Friday of Week 10 (before 5PM) to change the grade option of a course.  (No grade option changes can be made after that time.)
• Graduate/Professional school programs make their own determination as to how they assess courses taken as P/NP for their admissions purposes. You will need to check with those programs directly.
• If you have any questions about this policy for spring or summer, please email educadvising@uci.edu. ​
