I

The grade of incomplete is used only when a student has done passing work, D- or better, and because of circumstances beyond his or her control has failed to complete the required work for the course. It is not used to give a failing student an opportunity to redo unsatisfactory work or to allow more time to complete the work when the reasons for the delay have been within the student's control. The work must be completed and submitted to the instructor by the last day to add a full semester course of the subsequent fall or spring semester or the I is replaced by a failing grade. An instructor may recommend to the registrar an extension of this deadline in cases of special hardship. An incomplete grade cannot be given for the senior project.
