INCOMPLETE (I) NOTATION. Students should have completed at least 75% of the course work to qualify for consideration for an Incomplete. The student should be passing the course in order to be granted an Incomplete.
Determination of eligibility for an Incomplete is at the discretion of the faculty. Meeting the qualifications does not guarantee that an Incomplete will be granted. Students who meet the qualifications may request an Incomplete from the faculty member who is teaching the course. The decision to grant an Incomplete is up to faculty and department discretion. If an Incomplete is granted, the student and instructor must fill out and sign an Incomplete Agreement form in order to clarify what the student needs to do to complete the course.
The faculty member and student must complete and sign an Incomplete Agreement for each Incomplete grade and/or clarify the Incomplete Agreement via email within a reasonable time after the Incomplete is assigned as a grade. Part-time faculty must get the chair’s approval and signature on the Incomplete Agreement. A copy of the signed Agreement should be kept on file in the main department office. The Incomplete Agreement is available from your academic department office.
The Incomplete (I) notation may be assigned by the faculty of the class when a student, who has attended the majority of the class sessions, was unable to take the final examination and/or did not complete all class assignments due to unusual circumstances such as hospitalization. Incomplete work denoted by the "I" notation must be completed within one calendar year, or earlier at the discretion of the faculty member. If the incomplete work is not completed within one year, the “I" notation will convert to an "F." Graduating seniors may not graduate with an "I" on their MSCD academic record. The "I” notation may not be given for a self-paced course. Students must NOT re-enroll for the class in which they receive an “I”. The “I” is not a substitute for a “NC” or an “F”.
