Grade Reports

Students can expect a grade report at the end of each term of study. The grade for a completed course is determined by the instructor by how successful the student fulfills the requirements of the course.

Incompletes

A student will receive a grade of Incomplete (I) if he or she has not finished the required course work in the specified time of the course. Such a mark can be made up within six weeks after the end of the term; otherwise, the grade will automatically become Not Completed (NC).

A change of grade may be requested to the administrative office by the faculty only on one of two conditions:
