Senate Bill 273: Indeterminate Academic Status Policy

Whereas, undergraduate students are occasionally assigned grades of I or X; and

Whereas, these grades must be remedied no later than the end of classes during the next semester of enrollment, or 1 year from the date of grade, whichever is earlier; and

Whereas, current UAH policy treats grades of I or X as a grade of F when computing GPA; and

Whereas, this policy penalizes students for courses that they have not, but must, complete;

Therefore, be it resolved that:
grades of I and X will not be counted in computing an undergraduate student's GPA. The credit hours for courses in which an I or X is assigned will not be included in computing the GPA or academic classification until the grade is remedied or converted to an F through the student's failure to remedy the I or X grade.
