A grade of I must be made up within one calendar year immediately following the end of the term in which it was assigned. An instructor may specify a time limitation of less than one year. This limitation prevails whether or not the student maintains continuous enrollment. The grade of SP is used in connection with courses that extend beyond one academic term. It indicates that work is in progress and has been evaluated and found to be satisfactory to date, but that assignment of a grade must await completion of additional work.
Work is to be completed within a stipulated time period.
The SP symbol shall be replaced with the appropriate final grade within one year except for graduate degree theses for which the time may be up to three years, but may not exceed the overall time limit for completion of all master's degree requirements. Failure to complete the assigned work will result in an SP being converted to a F for grade point average computation. Any extension of time limit must receive prior authorization by the dean of the school in which the student is a degree candidate. All remaining SP grade symbols will be changed to F or NC at the time the student's degree is awarded. A grade of U indicates that a student enrolled for a course, did not withdraw from the course and failed to complete course requirements.
