Wagner's grading scale applies for courses taken in other divisions of the University. Any grade lower than a "C-" (lowest grade before an "F") received for coursework in other divisions cannot be counted toward a Wagner degree.
Wagner will waive one credit for each three-credit course and one-half credit for each one and one-half credit course taken at an NYU graduate program that is on the three-credit system.
