Incomplete Grades
If a student is unable to complete required coursework by the end of a semester, the instructor may assign a temporary Incomplete (X). To avoid the grade becoming permanent, the remaining work must be finished before the last class day of the next long semester. If the work is not completed by the deadline, the X will automatically convert to a permanent Incomplete (I).
Students on academic employment (e.g. TA, GRA, AI) may not hold more than two total grades of X, I, NC, D, or F in any combination.
