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 Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress for details. 3. Repeating a Course/Improving a Grade Students who wish to improve a previously earned grade, students may repeat a course within the Maricopa Community Colleges up to three times after the initial attempt to improve a grade. (A "W" or "Y" 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, students must submit a repeated course petition and an electronic official transcript(s), from that college to the Admissions and Records Office/Office of Student Enrollment Services at the college where the repeated course is to be excluded. 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. All enrollments in a course will appear on the transcript. Check individual courses and programs for exceptions. 4. Credit/No Credit Courses (P/Z) A. Some courses may be taken under a credit/no credit grading system. These courses carry grades of P (credit, equivalent to a grade of C or higher) or Z (no credit) and are not computed in the student's grade point average. Credits earned with a grade of P may be counted toward graduation with the exception of AGEC (Arizona General Education Curriculum).
