COVID-19 Alternative Grading Policy
West Chester University responded to the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic in Spring 2020 by shifting all courses to alternative modes of delivery, ensuring that learning could continue while protecting the health and safety of students, faculty, and staff. This transition reflected the university’s commitment to maintaining a student-centered academic environment even under unprecedented conditions.
To support student success, the university introduced a flexible grading system that allowed students to select the grading option that best suited them on a course-by-course basis after final grades for Spring 2020 were posted. This approach reduced pressure during a highly uncertain time and enabled students to stay focused on developing the knowledge and skills necessary for their personal and professional growth.
The results suggested that this flexibility had a meaningful impact. Student performance during Spring 2020 improved compared to previous spring semesters, which many attributed to a shift in focus from grade anxiety to genuine learning.
Given these outcomes, the university implemented the COVID-19 Alternative Grading Policy for the 2020–2021 academic year - encompassing Fall 2020, Winter 2020/2021, Spring 2021, and Summer 2021 semesters - to continue prioritizing student learning, adaptability, and success during an ongoing period of disruption.
