Before submitting a Pass/Fail request, please review the Pass/Fail Interim Policy to understand all restrictions and limitations for the Pass/Fail grade option for fall 2020. We encourage you also to talk to your instructor and advisor to see if Pass/Fail is the best action for you to take for your course.

To submit a Pass/Fail request for a fall 2020 course:

STEP 1: Log on to .

STEP 2: Click on Student Dashboard.

STEP 3: Click on Pass/Fail Grade Request.

STEP 4: Select Fall 2020 term and click Submit.

STEP 5: Select the first course you want assigned Pass/Fail and click Submit. You will see a statement above the course drop-down, letting you know how many Pass/Fail requests you have submitted and how many more you can request.

STEP 6: Next to “Grade Mode” select Pass/Fail from the drop-down and click Submit Change.

STEP 7: You should then see a message that the request was successful. If you want to select a second course, repeat step #5; otherwise, exit the screen.

STEP 7: You will receive an email confirmation to your kent.edu account that the Pass/Fail grade has been processed.
