An Incomplete (I) is assigned when an approved or extenuating personal circumstances prevents a student who is passing a course for completion of final assignments and other course requirements by the end of the trimester. Circumstances may include, but are not limited to illness, the death of a family member, a family emergency, program remediation, or extension/interruption to clinical schedule. Students must request an incomplete grade in writing from the course instructor prior to the end of the course. The instructor determines whether an Incomplete grade is appropriate, and submits the completed Request for Incomplete Grade Form to the Office of the Registrar with approval from the department chair.

To change an Incomplete, a student must submit all completed work established by the department. If required work is not completed by the established deadline, the Incomplete will automatically be changed to the grade noted on the Request for Incomplete Grade Form. A student who cannot complete course requirements by the specified deadline may request an extension from the instructor and department chair.

Students are assessed a charge for the processing of an Incomplete grade. Refer to Fee Schedule in this Academic Bulletin.
