IP (In Progress) is given only in certain developmental courses. The student must reenroll to receive credit. COM (Completed) is given in non-credit and continuing
education courses.
FINAL GRADE OF FX: Students who stop attending class and do not withdraw
themselves prior to the withdrawal deadline may either be dropped by their professor for
excessive absences or be assigned the final grade of "FX" at the end of the semester.
Students who stop attending classes will receive a grade of "FX", compared to an earned
grade of "F" which is due to poor performance. Please note that HCC will not disperse
financial aid funding for students who have never attended class.
Students who receive financial aid but fail to attend class will be reported to the
Department of Education and may have to pay back their aid. A grade of "FX" is treated
exactly the same as a grade of "F" in terms of GPA, probation, suspension, and
satisfactory academic progress.
To compute grade point average (GPA), divide the total grade points by the total number
of semester hours attempted. The grades "IP," "COM" and "I" do not affect GPA.

EGLS3 -Evaluation for Greater Learning Student Survey System
At Houston Community College, professors believe that thoughtful student feedback is necessary
to improve teaching and learning. During a designated time near the end of the term, you will be
asked to answer a short online survey of research-based questions related to instruction. The
anonymous results of the survey will be made available to your professors and department chairs
for continual improvement of instruction. Look for the survey as part of the Houston Community
College Student System online near the end of the term.
