Incomplete Grade Assignment

Assigning an Incomplete

  1. Log into mySeaport, click on Faculty.
  2. Click the link for Incomplete Grades, Grade Changes & Approvals.
  3. You will be taken to the Banner Grade Change tool.
  4. Select Student Search.
  5. In Step 1 you will be prompted to select a term.
  6. In Step 2 you will be prompted to select a course and request type. You will select Assign Incomplete Grade.
  7. Click Get Students to continue.
  8. You will be presented with a list of students in the section. Click on the Submit Assign Incomplete Grade link next to the ID of the student to whom you would like to assign an incomplete.
  9. Enter the reasons for the incomplete and the specific work not completed in the comment section. You also need to specify a due date, but that must be no later than the latest allowable due date shown. If no date is entered, the latest allowable date will be used. For undergraduate courses, the deadline to convert the grade is the end of the next regular term (excluding summer terms); for graduate courses, it is one academic year. When satisfied, click Submit.
  10. The request will be forwarded to your department chair for approval. If approved, the grade will automatically be updated as an 'I'.

The student must complete the remaining coursework and the incomplete converted to the final grade by the deadline, or it will automatically lapse to an 'I/F' grade. 'I/F' counts the same as a regular 'F' grade.

When the coursework is completed, you can convert the incomplete to the final grade in mySeaport.
