Incompletes

It is within the discretion of the instructor, upon request from the student for acceptable reasons, to extend the final due date for course work by three school days. The student may receive a further extension and a grade of "incomplete" only when the admissions and standards committee, prior to the examination period, has approved a contract signed by the student, the vice president for academic affairs, and the instructor. A contract must include the reasons for the extension and the new due date. Acceptable reasons are limited to unusual considerations such as illness, hardship, or emergency. Verification may be required. Failure to fulfill a contract will ordinarily result in a grade of "F."
