Incomplete Grades
Eligibility
To receive a grade of "I", work must be of passing quality, and there must be good reason for not being able to complete the course (illness, for example).
Steps
- Submit your Request for an Incomplete Grade form to the instructor prior to the day before final exams
- The form must be approved by your instructor who must forward it with the final grade roster to the academic department
- If approved by the Registrar, an "I" grade will be replaced with the assigned grade upon completion of the required work. The required work must be done before the last day of Fall quarter finals week following Summer Session.
- If not replaced by this date, the "I" grade will lapse into an "F", "NP", or "U" grade, depending on your student status.
Transferring Credits
All courses offered during Summer Session are University of California (UC) academic credit courses. All Summer Session courses are approved for credit by the UC San Diego Committee on Educational Policy and can generally be equated to corresponding courses at other universities. However, all Visiting UC and Visiting Students should consult with their own institutions prior to enrolling in Summer Session to confirm that the courses they plan to enroll in will be accepted for credit.
Grading Options
Students may elect a Pass/Not Pass option (undergraduates) or a Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (graduates) for a course by checking the appropriate box on the enrollment form, add/drop card or through WebReg. A grade of Pass is recorded for work that otherwise would receive a grade of C- or better for undergraduate students. Graduate students must earn a grade of B- or above for a Satisfactory.
