Divide the overall grade points by the units to determine the GPA for that individual<br />

semester.<br />

Overall Grade points Units = GPA<br />

40.9 14 2.92<br />

GPA is computed on an individual semester basis and on a cumulative basis that<br />

includes all work completed at <strong>Feather</strong> <strong>River</strong> <strong>College</strong>. At the time of graduation,<br />

grades received for college-level work at other institutions will be calculated and<br />

included in an overall GPA.<br />

The following designations are not included in computing grade point averages<br />

(GPA), but may be used in determining progress probation and dismissal.<br />

NP No pass<br />

I Incomplete<br />

IP In progress (class extends beyond term)<br />

RD Report delayed (instructor has not submitted grade)<br />

W Withdrawal<br />

Pass / No Pass<br />

<strong>Student</strong>s who do not wish to receive a letter grade may enroll in 3 units (or in one<br />

class exceeding 3 units) per semester on a Pass / No Pass basis.<br />

P = Credit will be awarded for work equivalent to a grade of “C” or better<br />

NP = No Credit will be given for “D” or “F” work.<br />

Courses in your major may not be taken on a P/NP basis.<br />

A maximum of 12 units of P/NP grades may be applied toward<br />

completion of the Associate Degree.<br />

Courses with P/NP grades may not be accepted by transfer institutions.<br />

P/NP grades are not computed in the GPA calculation, but a NP grade<br />

will record as units attempted in determining progress probation and<br />

dismissal.<br />

Once the P/NP change is filed, the designation may not be converted to<br />

a letter grade.<br />

You can file for P/NP through the <strong>Student</strong> Portal. Click on the “<strong>Student</strong>” tab,<br />

“Registration,” and “Change Class Options.” You must file by the deadline<br />

listed in the Academic Calendar.<br />
