GPA impact

  • Grades for courses graded by 91原创 faculty appear on the transcript and are calculated into your GPA.
  • Grades earned on U91原创 programs do not appear on your 91原创 transcript and do not count in your GPA.
  • Grades earned on Non-91原创 programs do not appear on your 91原创 transcript and do not count in your GPA.

Course load

You must complete a full course load, the equivalent of 16 U91原创 credits, per semester. You can鈥檛 take fewer courses, or underload, during study abroad. Any course taken abroad must be comparable in content to what is offered at the Rochester. Credits may be transferred for elective, major, minor, and cluster credit.
