In the Pre-Clinical Program, incomplete grades are given when course requirements have not been completed, due to serious mitigating circumstances, such as illness or family emergencies.

The Director of the Pre-Clinical Program, must approve the reason supporting the receipt of an “I” grade. This “I” grade remains on the transcript until another grade is given upon completion. Students with “I” grades on their transcript must complete the required coursework/ examination prior to registration for the next term. The grade must be submitted prior to the start of the next term that the course is offered.

If the grade is not received within 30 days of the start of the next term. , the Office of the University  Registrar (OUR), automatically changes the Incomplete (“I”) to an “F.”

Incompletes are interim grades. A student with an “I” grade does not repeat the course. A student who is absent from a final examination, due to illness must sit the Completion Examination. He/ she is not allowed to retake the course prior to sitting and receiving a grade for the Completion examination.
