JUST IN: The second semester of AY 2019-2020 has been shortened and will end on May 8. In a recently-released memo, the Office of the Vice President explained that eligible non-graduating students will receive a passing (P) mark instead of letter grades. (1/4)
Eligible non-graduating students will not have their yearly QPIs computed for AY 2019-2020, and are automatically promoted to the next school year, meaning that retention requirements are also waived for both major and minor programs this year. (2/4)
Graduating students will also receive P marks, but have the option to request letter grades. They will also be cleared for graduation provided that they satisfy certain conditions. The memo also provided three scenarios for the graduation ceremonies. (3/4)
