Show Student Records processed in the Records Office, the Records Office will provide both the student and student adviser a copy of the change in grade. T Grade —A T grade is given for those classes so structured as to require grading of students to be done in a quarter subsequent to that one in which the course work begins. All such classes must be approved by the department offering the class and the Curriculum Committee. 1. Institutional Incomplete —when a class is either designed or by nature is caused to be extended beyond the normal ending date of the quarter it begins, the instructor may give the grade in blanket fashion by submitting a "Report of T Grade Form", listing the class by name and number, and indicating the termination date of the class during the following quarter. The Final Grade Report to the Registrar should be retained by the instructor who will complete the form and return it to the Registrar within 72 hours of the time stipulated for the completion of the work. The Records Office will then process the grades, therefore, changing the T grades to the grade designated on the Final Grade Report for each student registered for the class. The T grade shall not be computed in the student's grade point average while on the transcript, and the credit shall not count toward the total GPA hours completed. 2. Student Incomplete —The grade shall be used by instructors for classes designed to be completed by students on an individualized basis which may extend beyond a quarter. Those classes which require continued individualized instruction and advising by a faculty member must be registered for during the extended quarter. The T grade will remain on the transcript permanently for the course the quarter it was initiated. The final grade for the course will be recorded the quarter in which the work is completed. The T grade indicates that the course is being continued in the subsequent quarter and will not be computed in the student's grade point average, nor will the credits be counted toward total hours. Repeat Courses —A Student may repeat a course in which a low grade was received and have that grade superseded by the most recently received grade. The original grade will remain on the student's academic record, but the student's grade point average will be recalculated on the basis of the most recently received grade. Registering for a class for a second time, therefore, under the credit/no-credit policy, is not permissible. It is the responsibility of the student to notify the Office of the Director of Records upon completion of a "repeat course" in order for the grade point average to be recomputed. Changing of Grades —Grades entered with the Records Office shall be unalterable except when written explanation to the Admission, Credits and Graduation Committee is expressly made by the instructor concerned. Grade changes are permitted only when there has been an error in computing or recording of grades. Make-up Examinations —No make-up examinations are allowed except on (1) the approval of the class instructor, (2) the payment of a one- dollar fee to the Cashier, and (3) the presentation of the receipt of such payment to the instructor concerned. 50 Veterans Affairs Petition for Academic Renewal —The Academic Renewal Policy provides an opportunity for students to have their grade point averages recalculated using only those courses completed within the last ten years and those courses prior to the ten year period where a "C" or better was obtained. The Academic Renewal Policy: 1. The applicant for academic renewal must be a currently enrolled undergraduate student. 2. Academic renewal may be requested only once during a student's academic career. 3. The policy does not apply to graduate students or students pursuing a second bachelor degree. 4. All grades of "D", or less, earned ten years prior to the date of the petition, will be discounted in the computation of the grade point average. 5. Courses whose grades are discounted for grade point purposes no longer satisfy academic course requirements. 6. Hours earned in classes discounted for grade point average purposes are also discounted for use in satisfying total and upper division hour requirements. ' 7. The Academic Renewal Policy may apply to all credit granted by accredited institutions of higher education the student has attended. 8. Only the way a student's grade point average is calculated will be effected by this policy. The academic record (transcript) will not be physically altered in any way. Responsibility for the Administration of this procedure rests with the Director of Records. Petition forms may be obtained from that office.
