With a few small variations, UO Law uses the UO grading system that includes the following grades and quality points for determining grade point averages.
| Grade | Quality points | Descriptions |
|---|---|---|
| A | 4.0 | Excellent |
| B | 3.0 | Good |
| C | 2.0 | Satisfactory |
| D | 1.0 | Inferior |
| F | 0 | Unsatisfactory, no credit awarded |
| + | + 0.3 | With A, B, C, D |
| - | - 0.3 | With A, B, C (D- not awarded in graduate-level law courses) |
| N | No Pass | Unsatisfactory (calculated as F [0 points] in GPA of graduate-level law courses) |
Marks of P, I, AU, W, and X do not count in the GPA computation
| Grade | quality points | Descriptions |
|---|---|---|
| P | Pass | Satisfactory (D or above for graduate-level law) |
| I | Incomplete | |
| AU | Audit, no credit awarded | |
| W | Student has officially withdrawn | |
| X | Instructor did not report grade |
