Hi Virginia,
This is what UM does:
ACTV 189 - Varsity Athletics. 1 Credit.
(R-4) Offered every term. Students may include up to but not more than 4 credits earned in ACT/ACTV/HHP 100-299 or MART 100/189 activity courses in the total number of credits required for graduation. Students graded Credit/No Credit based on participation and a strict attendance policy. For a complete list of all classes offered go to the HHP Activity Program website.
I don’t know what the rationale is for that choice, but it is consistent with all of our other activity courses (ACT/HHP).
I hope that helps!

Subject: Varsity Sports
I am looking for some feedback on grading and grading policy for varsity sports.
- Do you use pass/fail or a standard grading scale?
- What is the rationale for the grading choice?
- Are students allowed to use the varsity sport in the total number of credits needed for a degree? For example, an associate's degree requires 60 credits. Can four (4) of the credits be varsity sport? These credits generally do not transfer and now the student is 4 credits short of being a junior at the transfer college.
Thank you for your feedback,
Virginia Boysun
