No Credit Registration

A student may register for no credit (NC) in any course with approval of the course instructor and only where space is available. Some programs may require additional approvals. Course restrictions such as prerequisites apply to NC registration. No-credit course registrations count as full credit value in determining the total study load allowed. If adding the no-credit course creates a course overload, standard overload procedures apply.

No credit courses appear on the student’s permanent record (transcript) with a grade of No Credit (NC). No Credit grades are not calculated in a student’s GPA, and the credit hours do not apply toward a degree.

All applicable tuition and fees are charged for NC registration. No-credit registration may not be changed to credit registration after the deadline for registration has passed. Credit registration may not be changed to no-credit registration after the deadline to drop classes.

Students receiving any type of financial aid, scholarship, grants or tuition waiver should check with the Office of Financial Aid before registering for NC as financial aid or waiver may not cover courses taken for no credit.
