Removal of Incomplete Grades

Instructors may assign an incomplete (I) when extenuating circumstances justify additional time for a student to complete a course. The student must be in good academic standing with a “C” average or higher in the course at the time of the request. When an incomplete is granted, the course requirements must be completed by the date specified by the instructor, which cannot exceed 6 months from the end of the term for which the incomplete was assigned. At that time, an incomplete will be changed to the appropriate letter grade by the instructor of record or, when necessary, by the faculty member’s department chair.  Incompletes (I) not satisfied by the specified date will convert to an “F.”

If the course receiving the “I” grade is a prerequisite course needed to progress to the next course, the student must satisfactorily complete all outstanding coursework prior to beginning the subsequent course.

Students receiving financial aid or veteran benefits should speak to a financial aid or VA representative to determine if an incomplete will impact their financial assistance.
