Withdrawal, Audit, and Incomplete Grades

A grade of W (Authorized Withdrawal) indicates a student withdrew from a class during the first 25 days of classes, before any basis for evaluation was established. WP (Authorized Withdrawal, Passing) and WF (Authorized Withdrawal, Failing) indicate withdrawal from the University after the first 25 days but before the last 10 days of a semester or summer session, depending on whether the student was making satisfactory progress at the time. AU (Audit) indicates a student registered on an audit basis, earning no letter grade or credit hours. An I (Incomplete) grade must be resolved by the last day of classes of the next semester (excluding summer term); if unresolved, it automatically defaults to the alternative grade specified by the instructor, or to F if none was indicated.
