New policy language: Credit and Grade Point Requirements for an Undergraduate (Baccalaureate) Degree

The new policy language reflects that D grades cannot count in fulfilling certificate requirements (this is for Twin Cities and Rochester only). The policy states:

“[Twin Cities and Rochester only] D grades are not permitted in major, minor, or certificate courses. Required courses for the major, minor, or undergraduate certificate in which a student receives a D grade (with or without plus or minus) do not count toward satisfying the major, minor, or certificate requirements (including transfer courses). All other courses, including courses in the major or minor field that are not required to complete the major or minor, will count toward a degree if the student earns a D or better.”
