Incomplete<br />
An “I” (Incomplete) grade will be granted only in exceptional situations<br />
when requirements for a course cannot be completed in the normal time<br />
allowed. An Incomplete grade is allowed only with the written consent <strong>of</strong> the<br />
instructor and indicates that the student has presented a satisfactory reason for<br />
receiving an incomplete grade. Students must request an incomplete prior to<br />
the due date <strong>of</strong> the final requirement <strong>of</strong> the class in question.<br />
For an incomplete to be granted, students must file with the Registrar a<br />
completed Incomplete Agreement form, approved and signed by the instructor,<br />
which states what the student must do to satisfy the course requirements,<br />
including the instructor’s grading criteria and the agreed-upon completion date.<br />
The maximum time limit for finishing incomplete work is the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />
following term.<br />
Notation <strong>of</strong> an “I” grade remains on the transcript alongside the final grade<br />
following completion <strong>of</strong> the requirement. Receipt <strong>of</strong> one or more “I” grade may<br />
preclude students from enrolling in subsequent terms, may render the student<br />
ineligible for federal student aid, and may result in the student being referred<br />
to the Student Comprehensive Evaluation Committee.<br />
If the course work is not successfully completed within the time limit<br />
established by the instructor (less than one term, or within one term following<br />
the course), the grade “Incomplete” will be changed automatically to an “F”<br />
(Fail). Students who receive an “F” will be referred to the Student<br />
Comprehensive Evaluation Committee for evaluation or face immediate<br />
dismissal from their program and <strong>Adler</strong> <strong>School</strong>.<br />
Credit/No Credit<br />
A grade <strong>of</strong> “CR” (Credit) is assigned upon satisfactory completion <strong>of</strong><br />
undergraduate prerequisite classes, pr<strong>of</strong>essional development seminars,<br />
practicum seminars, practicum/internship requirements, a limited number <strong>of</strong><br />
regular courses, the qualifying examinations, master’s thesis, and the doctoral<br />
dissertation. A grade <strong>of</strong> “NC” (No Credit) is assigned upon unsatisfactory<br />
performance in practicum or a course <strong>of</strong>fered on a pass/no pass basis. Grades<br />
<strong>of</strong> “CR” are not used in calculating the grade point average; however, grades <strong>of</strong><br />
“NC” are used in calculating the grade point average and are considered failing<br />
grades for the purposes <strong>of</strong> student assessment.<br />
Audit<br />
Students registered to audit a course will receive, upon successful<br />
completion <strong>of</strong> the course, a designation <strong>of</strong> “AU” on their transcripts, which<br />
