P or F: Pass/Fail
 Grading system used when the course content or format does not provide an appropriate basis for the alphabetic system of student evaluation. The Department may opt to assign the P/F grade to all students in a class if it is deemed appropriate. In addition, a student may elect to receive a P or F in any elective and must obtain approval from the instructor when enrolling in the course. A student may not complete more than 6 credits with P within the first 60 credits, and no more than 12 credits within the total baccalaureate program. P/F grades are not calculated in the GPA.

The course must be repeated in the following semester. Not calculated in the GPA.
INC: Incomplete
 A temporary grade for the student who is doing reasonably good work during a semester and who for some justifiable reason has not been able to complete a particular assignment.
