Incomplete Contract
It is important to understand the impact of an Incomplete (I) grade. See the Grading Policy outlining the requirements and restrictions related to Incomplete (I) grades prior to submitting an Incomplete Contract.
After a discussion with the instructor, a student may initiate a request for an Incomplete Contract because of a failure to meet an important requirement of the course but has in other respects done passing work for the semester. Assignment of the Incomplete (I) grade is at the discretion of the instructor.
- A student completing an incomplete should not re-register for the same class. Incomplete grades are not intended to allow students to attend a course during a future semester without re-enrolling.
- However, the instructor may require the student to attend the same course in a subsequent term in order to complete the "important requirements of the course that need to be completed to determine the final assigned grade."
- Incomplete work must be completed by the date indicated in the contract. If the remaining work is not completed by the due date or the end of the next term, the incomplete (I) grade will revert to the grade of "F" or "NC."
