Policy on Removing a Grade of Incomplete
Students will not be allowed to take courses offered by the Department of Mathematical Sciences until after they have removed all INCOMPLETE grades in the prerequisite courses. To remove a grade of INCOMPLETE, one of the following options applies:
1. Grade of INC received as a result of not taking the Final Examination:
Note that students who do not take the Final Examination for a valid documented reason may be given a grade of INCOMPLETE only if they are otherwise passing the course.
