Taking all your courses pass/fail?

<p>You might not be able to graduate if you do that...</p>

<p>I’m thinking about taking most or all of my classes pass/fail next semester. Why?</p>

<ul>
<li>It’s my last semester of senior year</li>
<li>I don’t want to go to graduate school</li>
<li>A startup company takes up most of my time</li>
</ul>

<p>Is there any downside to this?</p>

<p>Does your school have a maximum for pass/fail? Will all of these be electives? No major requirements or degree requirements?</p>

<p>If the school allows it and you’re sure you’ll put in enough effort to pass, why not?</p>

<p>My school doesn’t allow students to take any of their major courses pass/fail, just the gen-eds. Does your school have a similar requirement? Before doing this, I’d suggest talking to an advisor first to see if this is acceptable.</p>

<p>The “pass-fail” option is only available for internships that count towards graduation requirements at my school (nursing, education for instance).</p>
