The grade “I” indicates that only a small part of the semester’s work remains to be done, that the student is otherwise doing satisfactory work in the course, and that an extension of time is warranted to complete the work. The grade of “I” also signifies that an agreement has been established between professor and student as to the quantity of work remaining to be done, the deadlines established for its completion, and a schedule of meeting times. This agreement must be made in writing with the professor, student and program director having a copy. All work for completion of the course requirements must be submitted by the end of exams in the next major term (Fall or Spring). One additional extension may be granted to the student using the Course Requirement Completion Extension form with signatures of approval by both the professor and the Dean of Graduate Studies. If the student does not complete the work within the prescribed time period, the “I” is changed to an “F” and the student will be withdrawn from the Graduate School and will not be allowed to reapply to his or her program or to enroll in any graduate coursework counting toward any graduate degree or graduate certificate at the College of Charleston for one calendar year.

NOTE: Graduate School students in joint programs with The Citadel who receive a grade of “I” in a course taken at The Citadel have only one semester to complete the course before the “I” becomes an “F.”
