15. Submitting Incomplete Grades June 201315 When issuing an incomplete grade, instructors will assign the grade the student would have earned by assessing scores on all graded requirements, preceded by an "I" (for example, "IC-", "ID+"). Enter an Expire Date (MM/DD/YY) – reflecting the deadline for the incomplete. The maximum deadline for removal of an Incomplete is one year from the first day of the term in which the Incomplete was recorded, unless a shorter period of time is specified by the instructor. If the agreed upon remaining coursework is not completed in the period allotted, the letter grade issued with the "I" will become the final grade. If the instructor determines that the student would receive an "F" grade if the coursework is not completed, then an "I" (without a letter grade) with an expire date, is submitted for the final grade. To review the complete grading policy, see the University Catalog at: www.chapman.edu/academics/catalogs Incomplete grade of “IB” will become the final grade at the expire date.
