Conflict Management with Instructors
Ans:
Course Forgiveness
Ans: If students repeat a course, the last grade awarded (excluding a grade of

average. When a course is repeated more than once, all grades for the course,
excluding the first grade, are used to computer the cumulative grade point
average. Transcripts will indicate all classes attempted, and implementation of
course forgiveness does not guarantee that other institutions will approve such
action. Course Forgiveness will be implemented automatically after the
course(s) have been repeated.

Incomplete Grades
Ans: An incomplete grade in a course (grade of I) indicates that students have
not completed all assigned coursework or have not taken all class
examinations. Students who receive a grade of I must complete the required
work for removing incomplete grades no later than mid-term of the following
term. Exceptions must be approved by the Dean of Instructional Affairs. Failure
to clear an incomplete grade results in assignment of a grade of F for the
course. The grade of I is calculated as an F until it is removed. A grade of I
cannot be removed by repeating the course because it must be counted against
hours attempted in the original term
