Policy Statement
Grades of "N", or "No Pass" will remain permanently on the transcript.
Reason for Policy
Grades of "N", or “No Pass” will remain permanently on the transcript.
The designation "I", or "Incomplete" will not be used for a student whose performance has been unsatisfactory. The "I" will be used only in extraordinary circumstances. Before a grade of "I" is issued, there must be a written agreement between the student and course director that indicates how and by what time the "I" must be made up. Failure of the student to comply with the terms of the agreement will result in a failing grade.
Students who take a course for the second time will be registered for the course again. Thus, the transcript will list the course twice.
Students who are not required to repeat a failed course because they have successfully remediated the course by re-examination will have this action noted on the transcript.
Students who are required to retake a course because of failure may receive the grade they achieve for their performance. No course that has been successfully completed may be repeated for a higher grade.
Procedures
Before a grade of "I" is issued, there must be a written agreement between the student and course director that indicates how and by what time the "I" must be made up. Failure of the student to comply with the terms of the agreement will result in a failing grade.
