Audit and Pass/Fail Request

This form should be utilized by Undergraduate Students who would like to change a course from a graded basis to an audit basis, or who would like to change a course from graded basis to a pass/fail basis.

Note: Graduate Students must complete the Graduate Student Request Form within MyUNIverse to request this change.

Please see our Dates to Observe for more information.

Audit Basis: Students may change their registration to audit basis in the first three weeks of the fall or spring semester. After that, any changes would require signatures from the course instructor and the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost. Audit hours are included in the maximum credit hour load a student may take. Students may audit a course, but the fee assessment will be the same as a course taken for credit.
