Students can choose a grade mode or type (standard grading or pass/fail) when they register for a course. Students may change a course’s grade mode until the designated deadline. See the pass/fail page for restrictions on the use of pass/fail courses in the curriculum.
Students can use Path@Penn to change a course to pass/fail or to standard grading until the end of the Course Selection (Add) Period each semester. After that, students can only request changes to their grade mode using the Grade Mode Change form in Path Forms.
