  Excluded from School's GPA: NS,NC

Excluded From Both LSAC and School Calculation

Passing grades from systems with fewer than three passing grades (e.g., High Pass/Pass/Fail) are not necessarily excluded from the school's GPA calculation.

Degree Requirements: EFFECTIVE FALL 1946: MINIMUM OF 180 QUARTER CREDITS; 2.00 GPA
Institution Statements: 4.0 SYSTEM. GRADES AWARDED IN ONE TENTH INCREMENTS. LOWEST PASSING GRADE IS 0.7.
Definition of Symbols: HW=HARDSHIP WITHDRAWAL; N=SATISFACTORY WITHOUT GRADE; *W=PEREMPTORY DROP; NS=NOT SATISFACTORY; I=INCOMPLETE; S=SATISFACTORY; NC=NO CREDIT; W=OFFICIAL WITHDRAWAL; CR=CREDIT; X=NO GRADE SUBMITTED; PW=PASSING WORK AT TIME OF WITHDRAWAL; RD=REGISTRAR DROP

PRIOR TO SUMMER 1976: NS=NOT SATISFACTORY; EW=FAILING WORK AT TIME OF OFFICIAL WITHDRAWAL; I=INCOMPLETE; S=SATISFACTORY; NC=NO CREDIT; W=OFFICIAL WITHDRAWAL; CR=CREDIT; X=NO GRADE SUBMITTED; PW=PASSING WORK AT TIME OF WITHDRAWAL; AUD=AUDIT
Notes: SPECIAL SYMBOLS:
A grade followed by an I indicates an incomplete was initially awarded but a final grade has been received. Prior to winter 1983, /R indicates course was repeated and only the last grade will count in grade point average and credit is allowed once. Effective winter 1983 through summer 1985, /DR for a repeated course indicates that the first grade was less than a 2.0. Both grades will count in the grade point average but credit will be allowed only once. /R indicates that the first grade was greater or equal to a 2.0 and the second grade does not count in the grade point average and credit is not allowed. Effective autumn 1985, /DR for a repeated course indicates both grades will count in the grade point average but credit will be allowed only once and X/R is used for an undergraduate indicating the student repeated a course not eligible to be repeated for grade or credit.

Effective winter 2005, /R indicates that a course is repeated. Grades for both courses are calculated in the grade point average. Grades for courses repeated more than once are not included in the grade point average. Credit is allowed only once.

Beginning autumn 1987, /R designates a foreign language course initially taken in high school and used as the language of admission. Credit is not allowed and the grade is not included in the grade point average.

Courses designated with /D indicate the grade counts in the grade point average but credit is not allowed toward degree requirements.
