Abstract: Building a grading system compatible of a uniform but performing university structure of the European Community was a good time subject of analysis, competition and criticism. Far for being abandoned, the idea must recur by means of individual initiatives but also by systematic applications. The present work resumes the principles of ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) grading in the conditions when these became in Romania the subject of a law. Further the principles are analyzed, also as the practical experiments and the baleful consequences of an obtuse and profound limitative law which restricts the progress and the university initiative. The analysis manner is a comparative one, emphasizing the close but also the lasting time consequences.
