https://catalog.uta.edu/academicregulations/grades/
Grades that may be assigned in courses at the University of Texas at Arlington (Valid Grades) for undergraduate courses consist of A, B, C, D, F, I, P, R, Q, P, Z.  Grades assigned in graduate courses are limited to A, B, C, D, F, P, I, R, W.  Instructors only assign grades listed on the MyMav grade roster for a given course. Students uncertain about the grading policy in a course should consult their instructor at the beginning of the term for information. Valid grades for independent study, conference, seminar, and readings courses vary widely among departments; therefore, a statement on valid grades and special grading policies, if any, is given at the beginning of the course descriptions for each program in this catalog.
