Taking a Course Pass/Fail

Students may petition to take a course for pass/fail grading. Petitions must be approved by the instructor, the relevant Field Chair for core courses, and the Dean of Faculty.

Approved petitions must be submitted to Seminary Academic Services no later than the last day of the fourth week of classes (or by 4:00 pm on the fourth day of an intensive class.) No more than one-third of a student’s course work may be graded pass/fail. Spiritual formation and biblical language courses are not included in the computation.
