The pass/fail grading system is an alternative to a letter grading system in higher education courses. Students who receive a C or higher grade typically will pass the course under this system, while those who receive a D or F will fail.Sometimes only an F means failure.he pass/fail system arguably puts less pressure on students and allows them to relax and study without obsessing about achieving a high letter grade. This also permits students to become more exploratory in the courses they choose to take.
To receive the grade of P, the student must be doing work comparable to a D or better. If a course is taken under the pass/fail option, the grade of P or F will be permanently recorded. If the course is passed, the units of credit will be applied toward graduation. Pass/fail grades are NOT included in the GPA.
