Incomplete Grades -- The Policy

• All professors are required to adhere to the
  Huizenga College Incomplete Grade policy which
  states,
• A student who is passing a course, has completed
  more than half of the required work, and is
  unable to finish because of exceptional
  circumstances such as medical leave, must request
  an incomplete grade contact from the instructor
  (prior to the end of the term) and receive a
  grade of I. The student will have a maximum of
  ONE term to complete the coursework. The I
  will automatically revert to a grade of IF
  should the student fails to complete the course
  requirements within one term or less as specified
  in the incomplete grade contract. An IF will
  calculate into the GPA as an F.

16
Incomplete Grade Contract

• All Incomplete Grades awarded by the professor
  must be accompanied by an Incomplete Grade
  contract. The contract (electronic version
  located on HSPortal under Academic Forms) must be
  filled in by the professor and emailed to the
  Program Manager. The student must also be given
  a copy of the completed document (either hard
  copy or via email). Allow only enough time for
  the student to complete the work, with a maximum
  of one term (in most cases a few weeks is
  appropriate.)
• Please note a student who ceases to attend class
  is not entitled to an incomplete grade. Use
  incomplete grades sparingly and only in
  exceptional circumstances.

17
Change of Grade

• Once a student has fulfilled the Incomplete Grade
  requirements, a Change of Grade form must be
  completed by the professor. The form is located
  on Huizenga Portal under Academic Forms. The
  completed contract should be emailed to
  grades_at_business.nova.edu.
