In the rare circumstances in which a student, who has successfully completed a substantial amount of the course, is passing the course at the time of the request, but has not completed requirements for a course as a result of an accident, illness, or serious extenuating circumstances, faculty may assign an incomplete(“I”) grade. “I” grades should be made up and have a grade assigned by the faculty member before the end of the next term.
The assignment of an “I” grade must be accompanied by the grade earned in the course by computing a zero to any uncompleted work (i.e. IB, IC, ID, or IF). If the “I” grades are not made up and a Change of Grade form with the new grade is not submitted before the end of the next term, the student will earn the grade that accompanied the “I” grade.
Students in nursing and health program that are granted an “I” grade will not progress in the nursing or health program until the course requirements are met and the “I” grade is converted to a passing grade. The assignment of an “I” grade may delay the anticipated program completion date. The conversion of an “I” grade to a non-passing grade (per program requirements) will be counted in the maximum 2 non-successful attempts and dismissal from the designated programs.
Specific information regarding requirements for incomplete work will be stated on the “Incomplete Grade Award, Agreement for Completion of Course Work” (IIN-8) form. “I” grades may not be awarded for audit, non-credit, and third attempt courses.
