Incomplete Grades in Chemistry Courses
While UC Davis as a whole has their own general incomplete policy, this webpage will highlight how incomplete grades are approached within the Chemistry Department specifically.
Incomplete grades are issued at the discretion of the professor of a given chemistry course when a student's existing grade is of passing quality, but they are unable to complete all course assignments due to extenuating circumstances. Incompletes are only considered when the majority of coursework has already been completed.
- I received an incomplete in a chemistry course. What's next?
- Please work directly with the instructor you originally took the class with. In collaboration with your instructor, identify what options are available to resolve your incomplete coursework. Because not all chemistry courses are offered every term, we recommend aiming to resolve your incomplete as soon as possible.
- How will an incomplete grade impact my progress in a chemistry series?
- Due to the nature of chemistry series and how they can impact time to degree, we do allow students who have received an incomplete grade to continue on in their chemistry coursework. It is still up to the student to resolve their incomplete grade in a timeline manner to prevent it from reverting to an F grade.
- Can I resolve my incomplete grade with a different instructor?
- This is at the discretion of the instructor who originally assigned you the incomplete grade.
