Such courses must be taken for a letter grade. 3. Graduate credit cannot be earned in courses below 700- level. 4. A graduate student may petition to take graduate independent study courses (800- or 900- level) as well as undergraduate courses on a credit/fail basis. Such a petition must be approved by the end of the ADD period for the term the course is taken. Courses at 700- level approved for graduate credit cannot be taken for credit/fail. If you have any questions regarding this policy please contact our office. Charges from the previous semester must be paid before students may register for the upcoming semester.
