Graduate School of Business Grades
All courses offered by the Graduate School of Business are graded according to the following five-level scheme:
H |
Honors. Work that is of truly superior quality. |
HP |
High Pass. A passing performance, and one that falls approximately in the upper quarter of passing grades. |
P |
Pass. A passing performance that falls in the center of the distribution of all passing grades. |
LP |
Low Pass. A passing performance that falls approximately in the lower quarter of passing grades. |
U |
Unsatisfactory. A failing performance. Work that does not satisfy the basic requirements of the course and is deficient in significant ways. |
GNR |
The notation 'GNR' appears when no grade has been reported to the Registrar. The 'GNR' notation remains on the transcript until a grade has been reported (effective Autumn Quarter 2009-10). |
GSB courses may receive grades of "+" (Pass) for courses taken on a Pass-Fail basis, with "U" denoting a failing grade, "I" for Incomplete, and "N" for a continuing grade. The grade of N is recorded in a course that spans more than a single quarter, where the grade in an earlier quarter will be determined only later, after the entire course sequence is complete..
Prior to 2009-10, an asterisk (*) notation was placed when no grade was reported.
