Courses Taken Pass/Fail
Prerequisite courses taken as “pass/fail” or “credit/no credit” during the Spring 2020, Summer 2020, or Fall 2020 terms can be accepted as long as the course is passed and credit is earned. Classes taken this way will not be included in the cumulative or prerequisite GPA. Failed courses will not be accepted, but will be included in GPA calculation.
Unofficial Transcript Evaluations - Currently Unavailable
The Office of Admissions is not preparing unofficial transcript evaluations for prospective students at this time.

- Full name of school

- Link to the catalog you used for the course description
