An incomplete grade
may be assigned at the discretion of the instructor as an interim grade for a
course in which the student has completed a major portion of the course with a
passing grade, been unable to complete course requirements before the end of
the term because of extenuating circumstances, and obtained agreement from the
instructor and arranged for resolution of the incomplete grade. Instructors are
not required to assign incomplete grades.
If make-up work requires classroom or laboratory attendance
in a subsequent term, students must not register for the course again. Instead, they should audit the course
and pay course fees.
If the make-up work
does not require classroom or laboratory attendance, the student and their
instructor should decide on an appropriate plan and deadline for completing the
course.
When the course is
completed, the instructor will initiate the change of grade. These procedures cannot be used to repeat a
course for a different grade. An I grade should not be assigned to a
student who never attended class; instead, instructors should assign a failing
grade.
