Incomplete grades are the only means to receive an extension to submit coursework following the close of the semester.

 

SOS can provide advocacy to faculty on behalf of students regarding requests for incomplete grades when a student experiences an extreme, short-term, extenuating circumstance that is supported by documentation or relevant campus partner (such as the Title IX Coordinator, or Campus Safety).

 

Examples include: a death in the family, a physical or mental health crisis or event, or being the victim of a crime.

 

While SOS advocacy supports the legitimacy of a request for an incomplete grade and maintains students' privacy, the final decision to grant an incomplete grade is made at the discretion of the individual faculty.

  1. The student and faculty member must complete an incomplete contract
  2. The contract must be signed by the department chair
  3. The signed contract must be submitted to the Office of Enrollment Services by close of business on the last day of the semester.

If an incomplete grade is not a viable option for a student they should consider requesting a?Medical Withdrawal?from their course.
