Incompletes
The complete policy on incompletes is part of the Grading and Transcripts Administrative Policy. The policy became stricter regarding deadline for when an incomplete lapses and clarified the requirements for when an incomplete can be given.
Instructors may assign the registration symbol I for Incomplete if, at the time the incomplete is requested the student has successfully completed a substantial portion of the work of the course; and due to extraordinary circumstances (as determined by the instructor), the student was prevented from completing the work of the course on time.
The assignment of an I requires a written agreement with the student specifying the time and manner in which the student will complete the course requirements. The written agreement must require the student to complete the course requirements no later than the day grades are due for the subsequent regular (fall or spring) term, except as provided for students called to active military duty (see below). Students must submit the work to resolve an incomplete as specified in the written agreement.
- For undergraduates, an 'I' will automatically lapse to an 'F' or 'N' after one year from the last day of final exams of the term in which the 'I' was awarded. With the permission of the instructor, the incomplete can be made up even after it has lapsed to an 'F' (or 'N').
- For graduate and professional students, an 'I' remains on the transcript until changed by the instructor or department.
The instructor is expected to turn in the new grade within four weeks of the date the work was submitted by the student.
With college and instructor approval, a student may be allowed to resolve an incomplete up to one year after graduation. While the degree GPA will not change, the cumulative GPA will be updated.
When students are called to active military duty, and reach agreement with their instructor(s) to take an incomplete, they will have up to one calendar year following their discharge from active duty to complete their incomplete(s).
