2024-25 Graduate Catalog

L (Late Grade, Continuing Course) Policy


The grade of “L” is appropriate for cases in which the student’s work is expected to extend beyond a given semester/session. “L” grades may be used for an internship, practicum, field experience course, workshops, and independent studies that, by design, extend beyond the normal end of the grading period. Unless an exemption is obtained from the dean of the college in which the grade was given, an “L” grade unresolved at the end of one year will be converted to an “F.” If a student withdraws from the university before the year has elapsed, outstanding “L” grades will be converted to “W” grades. If, for a graduate student, the maximum number of years allotted to complete the graduate degree runs out before the year has elapsed, outstanding “L” grades will be converted to “W” grades.
