Incomplete Grade A. Students who are doing acceptable work may request an incomplete grade "I" if they are unable to complete the course requirements by the end of the term because of illness or other extenuating circumstances. If the request is approved by the instructor, he or she shall define, in a written/electronic contract, how the course will be completed. B. Students must complete the requirements within the time period agreed to — maximum time allowed is seven (7) months from the last date of class in which the grade of incomplete was assigned. Students who do not complete the requirements within the approved time period will have their grade recorded in accordance with the written contract. Students should NOT reregister for the course to complete the contract. C. A student's eligibility for financial aid may be jeopardized by an incomplete grade. Refer to the Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress for details. 3. Repeating a Course/Improving a Grade Students who wish to improve their GPA may repeat a course within the Maricopa Community Colleges up to three times after the initial attempt. (A "W" is not considered an attempt.) Students planning to repeat a course should seek advisement prior to enrolling. The lower grade(s) and credit for repeated courses taken at the same college will automatically be excluded from the grade point calculation. However, if the course(s) were taken at a different Maricopa Community College, the student must submit a request for the lower-graded course to be excluded from the GPA. The request can be submitted to the Admissions and Records Office at any of the Maricopa Community Colleges that the student attended. Students receiving federal financial assistance and/or benefits should follow up with the Office of Financial Aid and/ or Veterans' Services regarding their policies for repeated courses. An official student transcript is a permanent academic record issued by the college registrar. It displays all courses taken for credit within the Maricopa Community Colleges District and includes all grades received. Unlike an unofficial transcript, it is signed and dated by the college registrar and displays the college seal of the Maricopa College issuing the official transcript. Check individual courses and programs for exceptions.
