FALL
2008
PASS-FAIL OPTION
Undergraduate
students may elect to take certain courses on a pass-fail basis. The
purpose of this option is to provide an opportunity for the exploration
of a broader range of coursework than is normally included in specific
and distributive degree requirements. Students considering this option
should be aware that some institutions of higher education do not accept
transfer credit taken on a pass-fail basis. In addition, most graduate
and professional schools prefer that pass-fail credit be kept to a minimum.
Students wishing to take coursework on a pass-fail basis should
follow these procedures:
- Login to FlashLine from www.kent.edu and
click on the Student Tools tab to access FlashFAST to register for the
course.
- After registering for the course, click
on the selected course's Grade Mode. You will make the grade option
change to the selected course on the Change Class Options page.
- The last day to select the pass-fail
grading option is Sept. 7, 2008.
NOTE:
If
class beginning and/or ending dates are other than the regular session
dates for fall 2008, pass-fail deadlines may be different than noted above.
For these flexibly scheduled classes, you may determine the pass-fail
deadlines by calling the Office of the University Registrar at 330-672-3131
or by accessing Processing Dates
for Classes link.
Students
should contact their college, school, or Regional
Campus office for clarification of the pass-fail option and for application
of that option to their particular program. Conditions governing
the acceptability of coursework that pertains to all students may be found
in the Pass-Fail Policy within the Grading Policies and Procedures in
the General Requirements and Regulations section listed under University
Organization in the Undergraduate
Catalog.
