Students are strongly advised to avoid Incomplete grades.  Although Incompletes are not computed in grade-point averages, they do automatically become F’s if not made up the quarter immediately following the one in which the Incomplete was received.  F’s, of course, seriously damage grade-point averages, and no credit can be received for a course graded F.  While a student sometimes cannot complete all the work for a graduate course in ten weeks, taking an Incomplete grade that must be made up the following quarter causes undue pressure and subsequent incompletes.  If you find it necessary to take an Incomplete, be sure to request one from the professor before the end of the quarter and make arrangements for completing the work as soon as possible.  Upon completion of the work, please notify the Graduate Counselor who will then facilitate the Removal of Incomplete Form.  The fee is $5.00.  Teaching Assistants must remove all Incompletes accumulated through the end of the previous Winter quarter by August 31st.
