Incompletes are issued only for illness or compelling circumstances. An incomplete is granted by the student's Commons dean in consultation with the faculty member involved. The incomplete request form, available from the Commons Office, must be signed by the faculty member, student, and dean. The dean, in consultation with the faculty member, will specify a date no later than the end of the succeeding fall or spring term by which the work of the course must be completed.
Incomplete Form
It is the student's responsibility to ensure that all work is completed by the established deadline. If the course is not completed by the deadline, the grade will be computed based on the work that has been completed and will be recorded by the Registrar's Office within four weeks of the deadline, unless an exception is allowed by the Administration Committee. In cases where an incomplete cannot be resolved, the registrar may resolve the grade as an F. In this case, the student will be notified that a grade has been recorded for that course.
Resolving Incompletes --To send a final grade for an Incomplete the professor may send an email to the Registrar's Office that includes the student's name, the course code, title and term it was offered, and the final grade for the course. Professors must print out the email, sign it and send the printed copy to the Registrar's Office in Forest Hall for our documentation. The same information may be sent by a signed letter to the Registrar's Office.
