The University Management believes that the S/U option is part of broader efforts to nurture a holistic learning environment that puts less emphasis on grades and focuses more on learning and exploring courses beyond their core disciplinary studies. The University Management believes that the current S/U declaration period up to two working days after the last exam paper of the semester gives students sufficient time to weigh their choices of either opting for grade or S/U notation, rather than as a means to pull up their GPA. By maintaining S/U at status quo, and coupled with other academic initiatives aimed at shifting emphasis away from examination as the only major component of academic performance, the University can continue to nurture a holistic learning environment that ultimately aims to produce well-rounded graduates. NTUSU is constantly engaging both students and the management on this matter.
