There's just no such thing as D. A grade that "would be a D" is an NC. It's not really that hard to think about though-- professors usually don't fail students unless you're a statistical outlier in my experience, though some classes that's far more tightly controlled by a grade cutoff. Above that mark you get a C, above some other mark you get a B, above some other mark you get an A. It's pretty straightforward. Those marks, and how they're determined is solely to the discretion of the professor.

All NCs do not appear on external transcripts but do appear on internal ones.
