Grades and Transcripts

Grades

The grading system of the institution offering a course will be used and the same academic standards that apply to courses taught in residence will apply to the courses in this catalog. The following grading system is currently in effect: A, B, C, D, F. Pluses (+) and minuses (-) are used at ASU, NCSU, UNC-Chapel Hill, and WCU. However, UNC-Chapel Hill does not use A+ or D- and ASU does not use A+.

Grades for credit courses are recorded at the records office of the institution offering the course. Records for courses not taken for credit, including records of those awarding Continuing Education Units, are maintained at the Friday Center for Continuing Education at UNC-Chapel Hill.

Transcripts

If you need a transcript, you should request it from the registrar of the UNC institution offering the course. Most institutions charge a small transcript fee. We will provide you with a transcript request form when we mail your final grade report. If you need a transcript on a particular date, arrange your work so that you can take the final exam at least two weeks in advance of your deadline. If you are taking an exam at a location other than the Friday Center, you may want to arrange to have your exam sent via express mail to your exam supervisor and back to the Friday Center (you will be responsible for special mailing costs).
