“Incomplete” Grade Status

Grading Policy (CCS 4.40.01)—I (Incomplete)

“Incomplete (I) grades may be issued only to those students whose work to date is passing but not completed at the end of the quarter and a student/instructor contract is filed following college procedure.

All incompletes must be made up prior to the official end of the next quarter. “I” grades earned spring quarter must be made up prior to the official end of fall quarter.

Incompletes not made up by the date specified in the contract will default to the grade specified in the contract.”

Requesting an incomplete grade can allow you to develop a plan/contract with your instructor(s) to finish coursework from this quarter by the end of next quarter. I would recommend sending an email/Canvas message to your instructor(s) letting them know you would like to request an incomplete grade. Your instructor(s) can find the incomplete grading contract in the SCC Employee Portal and can work with you to develop a plan to spread out due dates and assignment completion.
