Pass/Fail Regulations applicable to Chemical Engineering undergraduate students.

1. Chemical engineering students may take courses on the pass/fail basis subject to the limitations in (2) and (3) below.

2. Students in good standing may count toward an undergraduate degree two pass/fail courses. These courses must be liberal or free electives. (See paragraph 13, College of Engineering regulations regarding enrollment, scholarship and graduation for undergraduates, April 1985).

3. Only one "introductory" course taken on a pass/fail basis can be counted toward degree requirements. An introductory course is defined as one which requires only freshman or sophomore standing and no other college level course as a prerequisite.

4. The Dean's office will provide forms* for indicating selection of the pass/fail privilege. Students must obtain adviser approval and return the forms to the Dean's office before the end of the fourth week of classes. The pass/fail election may be withdrawn anytime before the end of the fourth week of classes.

5. A grade of "C" shall be the minimum acceptable for "Pass". Pass/fail grades are not included in the calculation of the grade point average or the point credit ratio.

6. All students are free at any time to take courses in excess of degree requirements on a pass/fail basis.
