Incomplete grades are deficient grades. Requests for an incomplete are considered for extenuating circumstances only (documented illness, family emergencies, etc.). Instructors do not have to grant a student's request for an incomplete grade. Students who request an “N” grade must have completed the majority of their work and must confer with faculty to determine: 1) if and how course goals can be met, and a timeline for completing outstanding requirements. Incomplete grades might have an impact on a student’s financial aid, so students should consult with their financial aid counselor as needed. Undergraduate students who have two or more incomplete grades at the end of a semester will be reviewed by the Academic Standing Committee. Students who have multiple incomplete grades over the course of an academic year may be placed on academic probation for failure to make satisfactory academic progress.
The Handbook shows requirements for FIRST-YEAR students. Non-first-year students should see sidebar archive to view the requirements for their class.
