Incomplete Grade Process for Students

We understand that life events, natural disasters, and other confounding factors can get in the way of completing a course. We have a process that your instructor can undergo to give you an Incomplete final grade for that course.

When granted an Incomplete, an "I" will appear on your transcript once the course ends. Your grade will then be updated to your final letter grade after the incomplete extension timeframe has passed.
 
It is very important to communicate with your professor if you are facing an issue that will prevent you from completing a course. If you have completed 50% or more of the coursework and are currently earning an overall calculated grade of a C or higher, you may qualify for an Incomplete.


Step-by-Step: 

  1. As soon as possible during the semester, reach out to your professor if you feel you are unable to complete the course and need an extension. This does not guarantee you will qualify for or be issued an Incomplete final grade, but it starts the process.
     
  2. You and your instructor MUST digitally sign the Incomplete Request Form at least 1 week before the last day of the course.
     
  3. Your Professor must complete the form before you sign it, but you can send them the form to get the ball rolling by copying and pasting this link into your email: https://proone.proed.org/Esign/ProDocDocumentRequest/?formId=7478
     
  4. In this form, your professor will provide a date by which you must complete all outstanding coursework, and outline the assignments you have left to complete. Here is a screenshot of the information that your professor will provide when completing the Incomplete request form:

Process for Completing Coursework When Issued an Incomplete

NOTE: Your instructor must submit an updated grade to the system by the end of the next fall or spring semester after being granted the Incomplete.

  5. Your professor will grade the coursework you completed and then submit a Change of Grade form with your updated final letter grade
