Business Coursework: Ross Business School students may NOT elect Ross Business School classes Pass/Fail unless the classes are mandatory P/F. This rule applies to all business school students and business school classes, regardless of student’s earned credits, or years in program.
Non-Business Coursework: BBA students are allowed take non-Business classes which are non-graded (P/F, CR/NC, S/U).
Note the following guidelines:
-
Non-graded courses may be included in a distribution plan. (Note: The final course in a sequence used to satisfy the Language Requirement may not be elected on a Pass/Fail basis.)
-
A change in grading pattern for a non-business course is not permitted after the drop/add deadline for that specific class. Courses elected after the registration deadline may not be elected on a non-graded basis unless the course is offered as a “mandatory non-graded” course. (Please note that short courses (e.g.,GEOSCI 101-115), which start after the beginning of the term, may have their own drop/add deadlines. This information can be found by doing a class search in Wolverine Access and reading the ‘Class Notes’ section of a particular class.)
The Ross Business School does not grant exceptions to this policy.
-
Students may count a maximum 30 non-graded credits toward the 120 credits required for a degree. Non-graded credits are earned in courses for which no letter grade (A+ through E) is recorded on the transcript. Only those non-graded credits actually earned are counted as part of the total number of non-graded credits applicable toward a degree. (Advanced Placement credits as well as transfer courses for which students earned grades at another institution do not count against the 30-credit limit.)
-
In the case of a student who has chosen to elect a (non-Business) course —Pass/Fail, the Office of the Registrar converts the letter grades according to the following policies:
-
Grades of A+ through C- are posted on a transcript as “P“ (Pass); credit toward a degree is earned; grades of D+ through E are posted on a transcript as “F” (Fail); no degree credit is earned.
-
Non-graded courses earn credit toward a degree but not honor points. Therefore, “Pass/Fail” (or Credit/No Credit, etc.) grades do not enter into the computation of the term or cumulative grade point averages.
-
All P/F course work taken prior to admission into Ross must have a C or higher grade in order to transfer into the Ross School.
-
Students planning to apply to law schools should be aware that the Law School Data Assembly Service counts “F” grades from P/F classes as F’s in computing a student’s grade-point average. All graduate schools may require that P/F grades be revealed as part of their review process.
-
The Ross Business School holds students responsible for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of their class schedule. Students are responsible for validating their correct grading basis in Wolverine Access.
