NEW: Pass/No Pass + Excused Withdrawals
The deadlines for requesting Pass/No Pass or an Excused Withdrawal have been extended, in consideration of the disruptions caused by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
- Pass/No Pass: You can request Pass/No Pass for classes taken in the 2021 spring quarter or retroactively for classes taken in winter 2021 or winter, spring, summer or fall of 2020.
- Excused Withdrawals: You can request an Excused Withdrawal for classes taken in the 2021 spring quarter up to the last day of the quarter, which is June 25. (Requests for excused withdrawals for past quarters will not be considered without documentation of extenuating circumstances.)
Before choosing Pass/No Pass, you should know that some transfer universities may not accept Pass grades for certain requirements. To learn more about these important considerations and how to submit a request, visit our Special Rules for Pass/No Pass and Excused Withdrawals webpage. (Updated April 12, 2021)
While you won't be able to visit us in person during the 2021 spring quarter, you can still access many of our services online.
