The coursework must be completed within the designated time period agreed upon by the instructor and student, but no more than one calendar year from the end of the semester in which the course was taken. If the work is not completed within the designated time, the grade will automatically be converted to an “F”, Incomplete Failure, 0 quality points, and the grade point average and academic standing re-calculated..
