The University has adopted a policy known as the Flexible Grading Option (FGO) which allows a student to convert the grades of eligible courses to Pass or No Record grades, which are excluded from the student’s cumulative GPA (CGPA).
With effect from AY2024/25, the FGO aims to empower NTU students with greater autonomy and flexibility to shape their academic journey. The new FGO supersedes the previous Satisfactory / Unsatisfactory (S/U) Option.
Several important rules that REP students need to keep in mind:
- FGO Option is available for a maximum of 12 AUs.
- FGO Option is not available for Core courses, Major PE and ICC.
- Courses available for FGO Option are under the BDE category and Major Prescribed Electives courses offered with an BDE option (MPE-BDE). For the latter, please approach REP Office to seek clarification.
The FGO Option declaration period for AY2023-2024 Special Term with the dates in the table below.
