Giving of Incomplete (INC) grade is highly discouraged because it results to additional

tasks that the faculty member, the Registrar and other concerned personnel has to
perform. Nevertheless, in case it is inevitable that INC grade will be given, the Faculty
Member needs to observe the following rules:

5.5.3.1 An INC Grade is not allowed to be given for a student who failed to take any
major examination except the final examination. In that case, the faculty
member giving special examination shall require from the concerned student (1)
Special Examination Permit, and (2) Regular Examination Permit.

5.5.3.2 An INC Grade is not allowed to be given to a student who failed to join an activity
or submit a project. The Course Outline of the subject must indicate the
equivalent grades of the activity or the project and the same shall be approved
by the VP for Academics.
 Student’s failure to submit a project or join an activity within the prescribed
period shall result to a grade of sixty five (65) for the said project or activity and
therefore no INC grade shall be given as a result of such deficiency. A faculty
member requiring a project from a student however, may extend the period of
submission provided that such allowance for the late submission shall not
extend beyond the required period of submission of grades.

If there is no approved grade composition indicating the percentage in grade for

a particular project or activity, the student may not comply with the said
requirement and his/her grade shall not be affected in any manner by the
deficiency in project requirement.

5.5.3.3 A student desiring to secure special examination shall secure permit from the
cashier’s office which can only be released if the Regular Permit also has been
issued. If the student failed to take the special examination within the schedule
provided by the concerned faculty member, said student shall be graded in
accordance with Rule A (2) hereof and no refund of special examination fee shall
be made.

5.5.3.4 In case an incomplete grade is given, the same shall be completed within the
semester immediately following the semester the student received the INC
grade. Completion of INC shall be filed at the Office to the TechVoc Department
for endorsement to Instructor concerned. Failure to submit a duly processed
Completion of Grade Form within the required period shall automatically
transform the INC grade to FAILED.

5.5.3.5 A faculty member giving an INC grade shall indicate (in remarks of the grade
sheet) at all time the reason why the INC grade is given. In case the faculty
member who gave the incomplete grade is not connected with St. Benilde during
the time that the student is submitting his/her completion to the requirements,
the Techvoc Department Head shall facilitate the completion of grade in
accordance to relative record of the student concerned. A student who wants to
process the completion of his/her INC grade shall secure Completion of Grade
Form to the Office of the Techvoc Department upon consultation and verification
of INC grade.

5.5.3.6 Transferring students who has not completed the requirement of the INC grade
shall be marked with FAILED grade in his/her Transcript of Records event though
the period for completion has not yet expired.

5.5.4 Submission of Grades

Faculty members shall submit grades in accordance to the prescribed schedule and shall
submit the grades to the TechVoc Department Head/Coordinator for review and
approval. Approved grades shall be forwarded to the Registrar’s Office for recoding.
Grades to be submitted should not include any decimal points. Grade must be properly
rounded off in accordance with the universal rules of rounding off.

For INC grades, remarks stating the reason for such incomplete grade is required at all
times.

altered except upon the approval of the College President upon satisfactory proof that a
clerical error has been committed.
