Incomplete Grades

Issue / Question
An Incomplete Final Grade is entered for students who were passing at midterm but who cannot complete the remaining coursework for a semester before grades are due.  As part of submitting Incomplete grade, you will need to also enter a deadline that you have negotiated with the student to complete the missing coursework.  After that deadline, the grade will automatically change to whatever grade the student will get if the missing work is NOT completed, unless the student completes the work.
