DMACC Student Handbook: Academic Information

Incomplete Coursework

Students unable to complete some portion of assigned coursework during the regular term may sign a contract, with the instructor’s approval, for an “I” (Incomplete grade). Students must complete the course by the deadline established by the instructor and specified in the“I” contract. This date may not exceed the midterm date of the following term. If there are extenuating circumstances, the instructor may complete an Extension of Time Contract, granting an extension to the end of the following term. No extensions may be granted beyond the end of the following term. “I” grades are automatically converted to “F” if the grade earned is not recorded within the specified time period.
