Grading Definitions and GPA Rules

Grades of P (credit) and Z (no credit) are not computed in the GPA; a P is treated as equivalent to a grade of C or higher, and credit earned with a P may count toward graduation. Students may request standard letter grading (A, B, C, D, F) in place of credit/no-credit within the first 14 days of the term, subject to instructor approval and notice to Admissions and Records.

An incomplete (I) may be assigned when a student cannot finish required coursework because of illness or other extenuating circumstances; the student and instructor agree on a written contract, with a maximum of seven months from the end of the term to complete the work.

Students may repeat a course up to three times after the initial attempt to improve a grade. A W or Y grade does not count as an attempt. All enrollments appear on the transcript and are included in the GPA calculation, unless the student submits a written request to the Admissions and Records office to exclude the lower grade(s).

Auditing (N) carries no credit, grades, or graded coursework; a student may switch between audit and credit status within the first one to five weeks of the term, subject to published deadlines.

Transferring Credit/No Credit Coursework

It is the student's responsibility to verify the transferability of credit/no-credit (P/Z) coursework; some institutions limit how many credit/no-credit courses they will accept in transfer. Some institutions outside the Maricopa Community Colleges may treat a Z grade as a failing grade.
