Pass/Fail grading and the COVID-19 pandemicDuring the 2020 winter term, Queen’s University classes and exams were disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The final weeks of in-person courses and final exams were replaced by alternate methods of delivery. Some students received final grades based on Pass/Fail grading rather than a letter or numeric grade.
Pass/Fail is an approved grading scale at Queen’s University and P/F grades are not factored into the calculation of the GPA.
Transcripts that include grading for the 2020 Winter term will bear the notation "Term disrupted by COVID-19: http://www.queensu.ca/registrar/transcripts/legends"
