Incomplete Coursework

University Policy

If for reasons acceptable to the instructor a student fails to take the final examination or to complete any other required work within a course, he or she receives the I grade. Within the time limit set by the individual school or college, the student must complete the course requirements. If the student does complete the course requirements, the I grade is replaced with the appropriate letter grade.

College of Communication Policy

If, after instructor and student have conferred, the student has presented a sufficient reason why coursework cannot be completed on schedule and the instructor has assigned a date within the succeeding twelve months by which time all course requirements must be completed, the student receives an I grade. In the event that coursework remains incomplete on the assigned date or twelve months after the I grade has been awarded, whichever comes first, the I grade will be changed automatically and permanently to an F grade. A contract for completion must be completed and signed by both the professor and the student.
