No Progress A grade of “NC” (No Credit) is given to students enrolled in Master’s Thesis, Dissertation Proposal or Dissertation whose work does not indicate that they are making required progress on completion of their Thesis, Dissertation Proposal, or Dissertation. The “NC” will be removed from the transcript when the final grade for Master’s Thesis, Doctoral Dissertation Proposal, or Doctoral Dissertation has been posted. Incomplete An “I” (Incomplete) grade will be granted only in exceptional situations when requirements for a course cannot be completed in the time allowed. An Incomplete grade is allowed only with the written consent of the instructor and indicates that the student has presented a satisfactory reason for receiving an incomplete grade. Students must request an incomplete grade prior to the due date of the final requirement of the class in question. For an Incomplete grade to be granted, students must file a completed Incomplete Agreement form with the Registrar that has been approved and signed by the instructor. The form states specifically what the student must do to satisfy the course requirements, including the instructor’s grading criteria and the agreed-upon completion date.
