What exactly is an AF (Absent Fail) grade? (1 Viewer)

[star2468999]

Just wondering what exactly an Absent Fail grade meant, as in what would you have to do in order to get it? I was under the mandatory 80% attendance in a few of my courses, but my tutors said it was fine because of doctor's certificates... I came across this AF grade in the handbook and am getting a little worried because I may have been under 80% for one particular course and I didn't give certs to that particular tutor because she doesn't really mark the roll - ANYWAY, what are the odds of me getting one of these AFs for that course, I mean she hasn't said anything? And does anyone know how you get the other fails: UF (Unsatisfactory Fail), F (Fail)? btw, this was my first semester so I haven't any experience with the unsw grading system
