2023-2024 Catalog

 

Incomplete Courses

All course work is expected to be completed by the end of the semester in which the course is attempted. If medical or other extenuating circumstances arise that prevent a student from completing all course work in that semester, a professor may, at his or her discretion, award a grade of "I" (incomplete). 

Criteria for awarding an incomplete grade: 

  •  Incapacitating illness which prevents a student from attending classes for a minimum period of two weeks 
  • A death in the immediate family 
  • Change in work schedule as required by employer 
  • Judicial obligations 
  • Other emergencies deemed appropriate by the instructor 

Students may be asked to supply documentation of the problem. 

No more than 1/3 of the course work may be left to complete and the student must be passing the class at the time the incomplete grade is awarded. Any incomplete extended beyond the end of the next term must be approved by the Dean of the governing school. Once an incomplete grade has been awarded, the student cannot withdraw from the class. Students may not register for new courses for subsequent semesters if more than 12 hours of undergraduate or 6 hours of graduate incompletes remain on a transcript. Students who have an incomplete on file are not eligible to participate in graduation ceremonies. The entire incomplete policy is available at https://myiwu.indwes.edu/RAS/Forms.
