Type of grading in which the student is given the grade of P (Pass) or NP (No Pass) rather than a letter grade of A,B,C,D, or F. A "P" grade indicated that work was completed with an A, B, or C and unit credit is given. A "NP" grade indicates that the work was completed with a D or F grade and no units are awarded. P and NP grades are not included in the calculation of the grade point average. Some classes are offered on a P/NP basis only, while others may be taken as P/NP at the student's request. For more information, see the GCC catalog.
