Midterm Grades
-
In conjunction with frequent evaluations, mid-semester grades help students understand their level of progress. Faculty members submit mid-semester grades for each student to the Registrar's Office for all 15-week courses. These grades are internal and do not appear on student transcripts. These grades are also released to FERPA-authorized parents.

- Students will have until May 1, 2020, to request S/U/F grades.
- Students can request which courses they want converted to letter grades by submitting this form.
- Requested grades will be converted by the Registrar's Office (see chart below)
