Credit-No Credit (CR-NC)
Last updated: 03/07/2023
Undergraduate Credit-No Credit Grade Reporting Option:
For spring semester 2023 only, undergraduate students have the option to choose CR-NC until the end of the semester. This means, students will be able to review their posted spring 2023 course grades beginning May 10, 2023, and will have until 11:59 p.m. (EST) May 17, 2023, to select the CR-NC grade reporting option.
The Office of the Registrar will create a form allowing students to choose the CR-NC option for all eligible classes.
Undergraduate students may use the CR-NC grade reporting option for any course, except those that are:
- being audited
- already being taken for Pass/No Grade (P/N)
- are subject to external accreditation agencies that require a numeric grade (which include Construction Management and Urban and Regional Planning)
Students should consult with their academic advisor before choosing the CR-NC option to ensure this option is beneficial to their long-term academic goals. MSU will return to the CR-NC policy listed in Academic Programs effective Summer 2023.
Graduate Credit-No Credit Grade Reporting Option:
CR-NC grade reporting options are generally available to graduate students for spring semester 2023. Courses already being taken for Pass/No Grade (P/N) are not open to the CR-NC option. Graduate students in programs with licensure and accreditation standards need to consult with their program and departments/schools about what, if any, options are available to them.
Graduate students should check with advisors and graduate program directors before choosing the CR-NC option to ensure this decision aligns with their academic goals.
