An incomplete grade may be assigned for a course if, in the opinion of the instructor, there are extenuating circumstances which prevent the student from completing the required work within the semester of enrollment for the course. The incomplete must be removed by the end of the final examination period of the following semester, exclusive of the Summer Session, for the student to receive credit for the course. If the incomplete is not removed during the allotted time period, it will revert automatically to an F. As long as the grade is carried as an incomplete it will not be used in the calculation of the students grade point average. A student should not reenroll in a course for which an incomplete grade remains on record. The Assistant Dean of the Undergraduate Program in the School of Nursing is prepared to confer with ail students who are doing unsatisfactory work, particularly at the intra-semester dates and at the end of the semester, in order to advise the student.
Conferences are available by appointment.
Students are responsible for knowing whether they are eligible to continue in the School of Nursing. An ineligible student who nevertheless registers in the School shall be dropped, and the student shall not receive special considerations on a plea of lack of knowledge of scholastic status. To be eligible for graduation, a student must have a 2.0 grade point average on the sixty eight semester hours of upper division work fulfilling the upper division requirements. Candidates must successfully complete the prescribed curriculum for which they are registered and must meet all other requirements of The University of Texas at Arlington. To receive the Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing, a student must complete in residence 30 semester hours of the nursing major at the upper division level in The University of Texas at Arlington School of Nursing.
