No. With the exception of Writing 37, 39A, and 39AP, the Academic Senate at UCI has ended adjustments to the existing undergraduate regulations on Pass/Not Pass grades (P/NP). For Winter 2021, grading status can only be changed through the sixth week of instruction: February 12.
How will I know if a course is being taught synchronously or asynchronously?
Faculty will provide an early indication of their delivery model on their syllabi.
I signed up for a course in a specific time slot; what will happen if my instructor wants to change the time for a synchronous class?
While instructors may change class time with the agreement of students, students have the right to access synchronous courses at the times they signed up for. If a new time doesn’t work for you, reach out to your instructor to discuss options.
Some or all instruction for all or part of Academic Year 2020-21 may be delivered remotely. Tuition and mandatory fees have been set regardless of the method of instruction and will not be refunded in the event instruction occurs remotely for any part of the Academic Year.
Graduation
I am planning to graduate in the in the Summer 2020 or Fall 2020 quarter; will any of these changes impact when I get my degree?
Probably not. All UCI’s departments, schools, and programs are working hard to accommodate graduating students so there will be no delay in awarding of degrees. Contact your academic advisor if you plan to graduate in Summer or Fall and have questions about completing your degree. Due to volume, allow your academic advisor between five and seven days to respond.
I think I will earn Latin honors; will these changes impact me?
