When and where to see grades
Your grades should be available 4 business days after the end of the term. If your grades are not available online by then, check with your instructor or academic advisor.
You can view your grades on the Grades tab in MyU: Academics. You may also give access to a parent or guest to allow them to view your grades.
For the University's complete policy related to grading see the University's Grading and Transcripts policy.
GPA
Both your cumulative and per-term grade point average (GPA) can be found on your unofficial transcript in MyU.

S/N grade definitions
S/N means "satisfactory" or "non-satisfactory." This is the University's scale for classes you take "pass/fail."
| Grade | Grade points | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| S | Not calculated | Achievement that is satisfactory, which is equivalent to a C- or better for undergraduate students. Graduate and professional programs may establish higher standards for earning a grade of S. |
| N | Not calculated | Same as "F" in A-F: Represents failure (or no credit) and signifies that the work was either (1) completed but at a level of achievement that is not worthy of credit or (2) was not completed and there was no agreement between the instructor and the student that the student would be awarded an I (see also I) |
Other grading symbols
Depending on your circumstances, you may also receive grading symbols other than what is listed above. Some professional programs have additional grade notations. See the transcript key to learn out what the symbols mean.
