Credit/No Credit
Grade Option
This grading option is open only to undergraduate and non-degree students
enrolling in non-major courses.
To receive a CR (credit), the student must earn at least a grade of C. Students
who do not satisfactorily complete a course under CR/NC grading will receive NC
(no credit).
Students may change from a traditional grade option to a CR/NC option through
the fourth week of classes. A change from CR/NC to a traditional grading system
may also be made prior to the end of the fourth week of classes. No changes may
be made after the fourth week of classes (second week during summer session).
A maximum of 24 credit hours graded CR/NC will be allowed toward a baccalaureate
degree and 12 credit hours graded CR/NC will be allowed toward an associate
degree. No courses in the core areas of degree programs may be taken for CR/NC.
It is highly recommended that students check with a UNM-LA advisor because
different colleges within UNM accept different number of credit hours in courses
taken for CR/NC specific for the degree offered.
Hours earned for courses in which grading is specifically approved for CR/NC are
not included in the 24-hour maximum allowed toward degree requirements under the
CR/NC grade option.
Audit
A student may register in a course in "audit" status, provided permission of the
instructor is obtained and space is available. An auditor who fails to attend
class may be dropped at the instructor’s request. The fee for audited courses is
the same as for credit courses. Audit enrollment receives no credit and is not
included in the student’s total course load for purposes of enrollment
certification.
Instructor permission will be required before registering in a course for audit
through the first two weeks of classes. No permission from the instructor is
required to change to audit status during the third and fourth week of classes.
No changes in audit status may be made after the fourth week of classes (second
week during summer session).
Courses taken for audit may be repeated for credit.
