Incomplete Grades
If a student is unable to complete the semester’s work for a course, he or she may request an Incomplete (I) grade. The Request for Incomplete form may be obtained from the Records Office or on the Richmont website. The form is to be completed by the student, who must give a legitimate reason for the request and outline the assignments that need to be completed. This form will then be sent to the professor of the course for approval to verify that the student is passing and the Incomplete is not being sought to raise the student’s grade in the course.
The completed form will be submitted to the Records Office for final approval by the last day of final exams week. The due date for Incompletes corresponds with the last day of finals for the semester of the course.
Please note: If an instructor submits an I for a student who has not submitted a Request for Incomplete form, an F will be assigned to the student until the Records Office receives the form. Students may be limited regarding the number of Incompletes they may carry at one time. Those who have an Incomplete should limit their course load in the subsequent semester until the Incomplete is resolved.
The student must complete the work within seven weeks into the subsequent term (including summer), or the grade will be changed to F. Specific dates are posted in the Academic Calendar.
