The midterm grade period occurs each semester between the fifth and sixth week of classes. During this time, a midterm grade will be assigned, which can be accessed in UNCGenie. This grade reflects current academic performance based on assignments to date and indicates if improvement is needed. Students with a D or F at midterm should discuss strategies and options with the instructor. More information is available on Spartan Central. Students are encouraged to contact the instructor or their academic advisor if considering withdrawal.

Work submitted late will result in one full-letter grade deduction for each day late with no points awarded after one week past the initial deadline. Several assignments require significant advance planning. Contact the instructor if extenuating circumstances impact coursework completion.
