Eligibility for an Incomplete

An Incomplete (I) may be given to a student who has satisfactorily completed 75% of the course, but is unable to complete all the course requirements within the regular term due to extraordinary circumstances.

Mandatory Requirements for an Incomplete

When a student is granted an Incomplete, the following required:

• The student will not re-enroll or attend any other section of the course.

• The student must work independently on all required assignments and exams, with instructor input as appropriate when possible.

• The instructor will assess the student's work in a timely manner after their work is submitted.

• The Incomplete must be resolved prior to graduation. If there is an incomplete grade on the student's record at the end of their final term, their degree will not be posted. The Incomplete granted becomes a failing grade (F) or a No Pass grade (NP) if the work is not completed by the end of the subsequent term. The last day of the term can be found on the Registration and Records Calendar.

  Term Awarded	TERM Resolved
  Fall and January Term	End of Spring Term
  Spring and Summer Term	End of Fall Term

• If the instructor specifies an earlier deadline, the student must abide by that deadline.

Requesting an Incomplete

Students who wish to receive an Incomplete must obtain the consent of the instructor before the date on which final grades are to be submitted. The instructor should then submit an Incomplete Grade Request.

Resolving an Incomplete

To submit a final grade, instructors should fill out the Incomplete Grade Resolution request.

When a final grade is submitted it will read on the student’s transcript as I/grade received. While an “I/grade received” will not affect the configuration of a student’s GPA, it will remain permanently on their transcript to indicate additional time given to complete the class.
