* Redeemable failure in some faculties 

The Common Law Section of the Faculty of Law does not use the letter grade E, but an F with a satisfactory CGPA is considered a redeemable failure. 

Passing grades 

At the undergraduate level, the passing grade is usually D. 

At the graduate level, the minimum passing grade is C+. Some programs may require a higher grade. 

Note: The passing grades required in a course including students at more than one level are determined by each student’s level and not by the course level. 

At the Faculty of Education, the passing grade is C. 

The passing grade for all NSG and NUT courses is C+. 

The passing grade for all courses in the undergraduate medical education program (MED and CLI) is C.
