Grade and Credit Units Note: SBS 214 is a multi-session class comprised of two parts: Part A in the Winter and Part B in the Spring. A and Part B together will run from January 8, 2027 to April 23, 2027. Students only receive a grade in SBS 214 after they have completed both Part A and Part B.
At the end of WinterSession, students will receive an “IP” (“in progress”) grade in SBS 214A. This is a non-credit-bearing placeholder grade that will remain on the student’s transcript until they receive a final grade at the end of the Spring term. When the Spring grades are posted, the student’s final grade will replace the “IP” grade on the transcript, and the transcript will reflect the full 2.5 credits the student earned from SBS 214 A + B.
