Impact of Incomplete Grades or Course Withdrawals for the January Term
- It is in your best interest to complete all attempted course work for the January term.
- Incomplete grades that convert to the mark of "F" will impact a student's GPA as both marks count toward attempted hours.
- The mark of "W", as an approved withdrawal from a course, does not factor into a student's GPA.
- An "F" and "W" directly affect course completion rates as required by the Federal Satisfactory Academic Program policy. For more information, please refer to the Satisfactory Academic Progress policy page.
