I have an S grade — what does that mean? 🔹 What does an “S” mean on my transcript? 🔹 Why do I have an S instead of a grade? 🔹 How do I complete a course with an S grade?

An S grade means your course is incomplete due to unavoidable circumstances, such as:

  • 🏥 Illness
  • 🕊️ Death in the family
  • ⚠️ Other serious issues

Here’s what to do:

  • 📞 Contact your instructor to arrange how and when to complete the course
  • 📅 You usually have until the end of the month after exams (January or May) to finish

📌 Important: If the grade isn’t updated by the deadline, it will become an F, and your academic status will be affected.
