NEW INFORMATION: Pass/No Pass Grading Option for Students

The California State University (CSU) and University of California (UC) systems have just sent new information about Community College students who opt for a Pass/No Pass grade option. During the spring and summer 2020 semester only and due to the COVID-19 crisis, both CSU and UC are accepting Pass (P) grades. 

The CAUTION is that the CSU and UC Office of Admissions guidance’s include details and particular information about the impact of the P grade on different majors.  It is strongly recommended that students discuss this grade option with a Counselor before making a final decision. In addition, if you are thinking about transferring to a university that is not a UC or CSU (out-of-state, HBCU or private) the P grade may not be accepted at all. 

The P grade will not calculate into a student’s grade point average. Students seeking this option will need to request it directly to their instructor.
