The Late P/F Grading Petition is used to request a change from letter grading to pass/fail grading after the mid-semester date.
If you wish to appeal for the late pass/fail grading option after the withdrawal date, you can only do so if you have significant and well documented extenuating circumstances for your Academic Dean to consider approval or denial.
All required major, minor and general education courses must be taken for a letter grade in order to fulfill graduation requirements.
