Classification Status
A student is classified based on the number of semester hours successfully completed as follows:
Credits Classification 0-30 Freshman 31-60 Sophomore 61-90 Junior 91+ Senior
Grading System
Grades at Mesa State College are as follows:
A = Excellent to superior B = Good to excellent C
= Satisfactory D = Passing but not satisfactory F = Fail I = Incomplete IP = In Progress W = Withdraw NC = No credit P = Pass
Incomplete ("I") grades are temporary
grades given to a student only in an
emergency case and at the discretion of
the instructor.
At the end of the semester following the one in which an "I" is given, the "I" becomes the grade that is submitted by the instructor to the Registrar's Office. If the instructor does not submit a grade by the deadline for that semester, the grade becomes an "F." A grade of "I" given spring semester must be addressed by the end of the following fall term.
Extension of the time to complete
work may be made in exceptional
circumstances at the discretion of the
instructor. A student with an "I" grade,
however, may not change the "I" by enrolling in the same course another
semester.
