Grades for graduate courses are indicated as follows:
| Grade | Quality Value Per Credit |
|---|---|
| A | 4.0 grade points |
| A- | 3.7 grade points |
| B+ | 3.3 grade points |
| B | 3.0 grade points |
| B- | 2.7 grade points |
| C+ | 2.3 grade points |
| C | 2.0 grade points |
| C- | 1.7 grade points |
| F | 0.0 grade points |
The grade of F is computed in the GPA. A failed course must be repeated if it is a required course in the student’s program. Students who repeat a failed course and earn a grade of B- or better may petition to drop the grade of F from the computation of the grade point average; the grade of F will remain on the transcript. Only one F grade may be dropped from the calculation of the grade point average. Request may be submitted to the Registrar's Office.
*Grades of D and D+ are not assigned to graduate courses.
| W | Withdrew without penalty within a specified period (see the Baruch College Academic Calendar). |
| WA | Administrative withdrawal (no academic penalty). Given to new students who fail to comply with New York Public Health Law 2165 within the announced grace period. Also assigned for failure to comply with CUNY's COVID-19 immunization policy. Non-punitive. |
| WN | Never attended. |
| AUD | No credit. |
| INC | Student must be doing passing work to obtain instructor’s permission for this grade. The grade must be resolved by the end of the final examination period of the subsequent semester, or it becomes a grade of FIN, the equivalent of F. |
| NC | No credit. Used for courses taken under the pass/ no credit option. Also used to indicate the student received a course grade below C-. The course must be repeated in order to receive credit. Not included in the GPA. |
| P | Passing. Valid grade for courses taken under the pass/no credit option. Grades of P are not calculated in the GPA, but credits earned are counted toward the degree. |
| PEN | Grade pending (used when a grade is under review for possible infraction of academic integrity standards). |
No change of final grade for a completed course will be made without the approval of the instructor’s dean. Application for change of grade may be made at any time within one (1) year from the end of the semester in which the course was taken. Deans will consider the grade change upon the receipt of the instructor’s written explanation. Grades cannot be changed once a student's degree has been conferred. Extra work may not be submitted for a higher grade.

- The grade of P or NC is not computed in the grade point average.
- If a grade of NC is received in a core or required course, the student must repeat the course. The course may be repeated only once and for a P/NC grade only.
- If a grade of NC is received in an elective course, the student may either repeat the course or select another course; in both cases, a conventional grade will be assigned.
- The P/NC option is applied by the Registrar’s Office; the instructor is not informed of the student’s decision.
- The P/NC option applies as follows to students in the Marxe School of Public and International Affairs: MPA, MIA, and MSEd in Higher Education Administration students may use the P/NC option for one elective course only. The option does not apply to the Capstone Seminar Courses (PAF 9190 and PAF 9390). MSEd in Educational Leadership students are allowed to use the P/NC option for any one (1) course in their degree program.
- The P/NC option applies as follows to students in the Weissman School of Arts and Sciences: MS in Industrial and Organizational Psychology students may use the P/NC option for any course two courses in addition to thesis courses. Thesis courses are graded only on a P/NC basis. MA students may elect to use the P/NC option for electives or required courses within the degree program.
- The P/NC option applies as follows to students in the Zicklin School of Business: MBA students are not permitted to use the P/NC option for core, major, foundational, or functional skills courses, but they may use the option for one elective course. Students following the 57-credit MBA who use the P/NC option and then change their major or pursue a second major cannot apply a course previously graded P/NC toward their new major or petition to withdraw the option. Students cannot apply a P/NC to a graded course in accountancy or taxation used toward CPA requirements. MS students may not use the P/NC option.
