<p>If hypothetically, I were trying to transfer from a school with pass/fail grades for the first semester of my freshmen year such as jhu, how would duke treat them? The website says that it does not take any pass/fail courses for credit. That seems somewhat unreasonable in this case. Can someone explain?</p>
<p>call the admissions office</p>
<p>very unlikely anyone here knows the answer</p>
<p>kcaj: Yes, call the admissions offices, but I believe that if you are speaking of jhu, the grades get uncovered for transfer.</p>
