The degree conferral date (the date that will be listed on the diploma and the transcript) is always the last day of the given quarter. The Office of the Registrar establishes these dates and lists them on the Enrollment and Registration Calendar. Please note: in cases where the quarter end-date is on a Saturday, the GEPA deadline to turn in all graduation-related final forms is the day before (Friday, the last working day of the week). |

An instructor may file an I (Incomplete) only if the student has completed the majority of the coursework at a passing level and only for documented reasons beyond the student’s control (illness, housing insecurity, and family emergency, for example). An instructor may not grant a request for an Incomplete except as described above. The deadline for filing a request for an Incomplete shall be no later than the first working day after final examination week. The instructor shall make arrangements with the student for completion of the work required at the earliest possible date, but no later than the last day of the finals week in the following quarter. If not replaced by this date, the I grade will lapse into a failing grade. The instructor may neither agree nor require that the student wait until the next time the course is offered in order to make up incomplete work or equivalent. If the instructor assigns an Incomplete grade, without the student having requested it, the instructor must notify the student before the first working day after final examination week of the quarter the I grade is to be assigned. For the full Senate Regulation, please see Senate Regulation 500 here. |

To request a return from suspension (for 1 or more quarter/s), please submit a General Petition for readmission in DocuSign. Submission of the petition alerts the appropriate GEPA advisor to reactivate the student to enable registration. The suspension hold will remain in place until the end of the suspension term, which will prevent registration for the subsequent quarter until the hold expires. |
