Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (S/U) Option
 
 

The University has adopted a new policy in which a Course may be graded as Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory (S or U) instead of the normal letter-grade. Several important SPMS rules that students need to keep in mind:

  1. Maximum 12 AUs are allowed for S/U
  2. Minimum 77 AUs of graded Courses must be fulfilled in order to be awarded a degree
  3. modules available for S/U Option are all first year Courses (and taken within first year of matriculation) and all GER at any level (except GER-Core). The list of first year core Courses for MATH students would be as follows:

    1. MAS110 Introduction to Scientific Programming
    2. MAS111 Foundations of Mathematics
    3. MAS112 Calculus I
    4. MAS113 Calculus II
    5. MAS114 Linear Algebra I
    6. MAS214 Basic Discrete Mathematics and Number Theory

  4. Students are to declare their chosen Courses online even if one does not wish to exercise the option at all
  5. S/U Option that has been exercised for a subject(s) is irrevocable once the deadline for declaration has lapsed
  6. S/U Option does not apply to Courses which are tied to Minor and Second Major programmes
