Auditing

GRADING: All SWELL classes are graded on CREDIT RECEIVED (CR)/NO CREDIT RECEIVED (NC). Students must meet the following criteria to receive credit:

1. Attendance: Must attend and participate in 80% of all classes; effective the day after the add/drop date.
2. Written Exam: must score a 75% or better.

NOTE: Students who do not meet these criteria will receive an “NC” grade indicating no credit was received. This will NOT impact their GPA.

Since participation is the primary component of SWELL classes, attendance is mandatory. Students must attend and participate in 80% of all class session (beginning the day after the add/drop date) to pass the course.

When travel for a BYU-related activity will result in missing classes, students should provide faculty with notification of the absence and take responsibility to stay current with course requirements.

Each class will be given a written examination that must be taken prior to the last day of class to pass.

By enrolling in a SWELL class, students acknowledge and agree to assume the inherent risks of the activities associated with the class as described in the course outline.

Any injury occurring during scheduled class time must be immediately reported to the SWELL instructor.

Department policy does not permit the auditing of any SWELL class.
