Incomplete Grade:
Students seeking an “Incomplete” grade must consult with me in person no later than the
week prior to finals. Incompletes will only be considered for unforeseeable, emergency
and justifiable reasons at the end of the term, and only upon agreement of clear conditions
for completing coursework. Incompletes are rarely granted and only if the emergency or
other justifiable reason occurs after the date for dropping the class.
Pass/No Pass Grading Option:
You have the option to choose Credit/No Credit grading for this class. If you choose this
option, you must submit a Petition for Credit/No Credit to Admissions & Records. This
option for grading is non-reversible once selected. The petition form is available online, or
from Admissions & Records. Students planning to transfer should consult with a
counselor before opting for Credit/No Credit to ensure this option is accepted by their
intended transfer institutions. Check the MiraCosta College catalog or schedule for more
detailed information.
