Effective Fall 2023, the period for clearing an incomplete grade is restricted to a maximum of 30 days from the end of the term in which the course was offered. For the student's protection, the precise arrangements for the clearance of an incomplete grade should be specified on the Incomplete-Grade Contract form. This form is signed by the instructor, the student, and the student's advisor. Copies of the form are kept by the student, the instructor, and uploaded to the student's advising notes. The instructor will grant the I grade at the time final grades are submitted. If the missing assignment(s) have not been submitted to the instructor within 30 days from the end of the term in which the course was offered, or the agreed upon due date, the grade entered will reflect the student's grade in the course for the work completed and the missing assignments receiving no credit toward the final grade."
