<p>My son now has a grade for Outdoor Action available.</p>
<p>It’s graded? Can you give some more background for the uninitiated? Thanks!</p>
<p>it’s an official 1 credit class so it’s graded (not just pass/fail). you apply for this class starting around February, continuing for any time during spring until there is no more spaces available… and then you actually register for it during Bama Bound. I think all the information should be on UA’s website about this, but if not it shortly will be in the new year.</p>
<p>Some prior threads with AA/OA info</p>

<p>Ah, I see. What are students graded on?</p>
<p>Are OA and AA both graded?</p>
<p>[Programs</a> | Honors College](<a href=“http://honors.ua.edu/programs/]Programs”>Programs – honors.ua.edu | The University of Alabama)
that is the official Honors College link. poke around. My S did AA, not OA. They were graded on active participation, discussion contributions, and some sort of paper, which he finished before classes even started. Some of the old threads on this UA forum will be helpful and give you a lot of info about students’ experiences.</p>
<p>Thanks. I’ll check it out.</p>
