T and I Grades

Constantin College of Liberal Arts

I Incomplete. The letter "I" denotes an Incomplete and is given only when a valid emergency prevented the student from completing course work. For an Incomplete grade to be considered, the student must have completed a substantial part of the course requirement with a grade for that work. If the student receives an "I" he/she must perform whatever academic tasks the granting faculty member deems necessary before the Incomplete will be changed to a letter grade. An Incomplete Grade Contract must be completed by the student and the professor specifying the work required and a date for completion. The Incomplete Grade Contract must be submitted to the appropriate Dean, for final approval and a copy will remain on file in the Office of the Registrar. Upon submission of the required work, the professor assigns a grade and submits a grade change form to the Office of the Registrar. If an Incomplete is not changed by the deadline specified within the contract, the grade indicated in the contract will be assigned. "I" grades in undergraduate courses are calculated as F grades in the student’s GPA. If they are not removed within the first four weeks of the following semester, the final grade will be changed to the grade indicated on the contract, with an "I/" in front of the grade. If required work is submitted by the due date the final grade is placed after a slash next to the "I", which is not removed.


T A temporary grade assigned if an extended time period for completion of the course is a planned part of the course. If work is submitted by the due date established, the "T" grade is completely removed from the student’s record. The "T" grade may also be assigned by the Dean when an extraordinary situation prohibits the professor from providing a final grade in a timely manner. If a T grade is not changed one year after being issued in Constantin College, or five years after being issued in the Braniff School of Liberal Arts, the final grade will be changed to "F".

Braniff Graduate School

Faculty members may give a "T" (temporary) grade in a class if an extended time period for the completion of the course work (larger paper, project or thesis) is a planned part of the course as approved by the curriculum process of the university. All "T" grades for a given semester must be removed before the first day of regular registration for the next semester. A "T" grade for the Master’s thesis, Doctoral dissertation, or equivalent requirement is an exception to this rule. When work is submitted by the due date, a "T" grade is completely removed from the student’s record. If a T grade is not changed five years after being issued in the Braniff Graduate School, the final grade will be changed to "F".
