U of T Engineering Undergraduates
U of T Engineering students enrolled in engineering courses or courses offered by other faculties are not permitted to select the Credit/No Credit option that may be available to students in other faculties. Instead, U of T Engineering students may choose to designate a course as an extra credit (“EXT”) or submit a request for late withdrawal from the course (“LWD”).
Students from Faculties Outside of U of T Engineering
Students from other U of T faculties taking U of T Engineering courses may not use the CR/NCR option for courses taken within the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering.
2020 Winter Term Exception
For the 2020 Winter Term only, due to the sudden and unexpected onset of remote learning in response to the COVID-19 pandemic:
- U of T Engineering undergraduates had the option of choosing how their grades were recorded on their transcripts: percentage (%) grades (per normal) or selecting the Credit/No Credit (CR/NCR) option after seeing their final grades. There was no limit on the total number of courses (both core and non-core courses, including courses taken in other faculties) a student could select the Credit/No Credit option for.
- Students from other faculties whose programs offered the CR/NCR option, and who were enrolled in U of T Engineering courses in 2020 Winter Term, also had the option of selecting the CR/NCR option subject to their own division’s timelines.
The Faculty came to this decision after extensive consultation with chairs and directors, vice-deans undergraduate and first year, and the Undergraduate Assessment Committee, which included representation from the Engineering Society.
