GRADES All grades are issued to students over theWeb via WebAdvisor at
www.doane.edu/wa. Grade point calculation information is in the Doane College Catalog.
Grades awarded include: A +/-, B +/-, C +/-, D +/-, F
An Incomplete (I) may be given if a student is not able to complete the work by the last day of the course due to sickness or other extenuating circumstance that the student has discussed with the instructor. When awarding an incomplete, the instructor will assign an expiration date NO LATER THAN the last day of the next term. If the expiration date passes without a grade change from the instructor, the incomplete grade will automatically convert to an ―F‖. This is a final grade and will not be changed, per the grade change policy.
In order to receive an incomplete (I), a student must have completed at least 75% of the coursework required for the course. If a student wishes to receive an incomplete for a course, the student will obtain a form from the registrar that will detail the coursework required to remove the incomplete. The student must complete the form, obtain the signature of the instructor on the form, and return the form to the registrar’s office.
For courses such as practicums, senior seminars, or internships, intended to last longer than a single term, instructors will submit a grade of ―In Progress‖ (IP) at the end of the first term.
