I — a grade of “incomplete” is given to a student who for acceptable reasons has not completed the course work at the end of the semester, but who, in the estimation of the instructor, can reasonably be expected to pass the course. Completion must be accomplished within two weeks after the beginning of the next semester or the “I” will automatically be changed to an “F”. Permission for additional time to complete the course requirements must be granted by the Vice President for Academic Affairs or by the designated official.
