Full-time and part-time students in good academic standing who have earned a minimum of 30 credits (including transfer work) may elect to take one course each semester under Credit/No Record. The option is limited to a total of 6 undergraduate courses or 18 credit hours (excluding cooperative education and internship credits) which are not requirements in the student's major (or minor).

Letter grades are not reported for courses taken credit/no record and therefore the student's semester and cumulative quality point averages are not affected. Credit (CR) is awarded whenever a grade of "C" or better is earned. Credit is not awarded and the course does not appear on the student's grade report or transcript whenever a grade is earned lower than a "C".

The procedures for electing the Credit/No Record Option are as follows:

1. A Credit/No Record Form must be secured at the Office of the Registrar, 122 Carrier during the period of Credit No Record
2. The form must be completed by the student and include the signature of his/her assigned academic advisor.
3. The completed form must then be returned to the Office of the Registrar BEFORE  the end of the Credit No Record period. 
4. Students attending Venango Campus may initiate and complete the Credit/No Record Option at the Administrative Office, Frame Hall.

**Once the Credit/No Record Option has been elected, it cannot be rescinded under any circumstances.
Credit/No Record is not available to graduate students or student teachers.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Before completing a Credit/No Record form, students are advised to check on what impact the transaction may have on financial aid, athletic eligibility, health insurance benefits, degree requirements, veterans benefits, scholarships, or other areas.
