Incomplete Policy for the Graduate Division of Education

The grade of “I” is applied in a course when the candidate has not completed all course requirements. It is a substitute grade given only with the approval of the instructor and Graduate Program Director at the specific request of the candidate prior to the end of the course. Requests for an incomplete need to be made in writing and demonstrate need other than incomplete coursework. Approval is granted only when the student demonstrates circumstances beyond his/her control which temporarily prevents completion of the coursework. All "Incompletes" must be resolved by the dates indicated in the Academic Calendar for each semester. Any extension beyond the published dates of the Academic Calendar requires written approval of both the instructor, the Graduate Program Director and the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs. Any grade of “I” which is not converted to a letter grade within the time allotted, automatically becomes an “F”.
