Data Entry Error If you make a mistake when entering a student’s grade, you may re-enter WebSTAR and change the grade but only the same day you originally entered the grade (before midnight.) After midnight a grade change must be completed manually by the Program Office. Completed a Grade Change Form, found in the HSPortal under Academic Forms and Grade changes take approximately 5-8 business days to complete and become viewable to the student on WebSTAR.

Incomplete Grades -- The Policy All professors are required to adhere to the Huizenga School Incomplete Grade policy which states, A student who is passing a course, has completed more than half of the required work, and is unable to finish because of exceptional circumstances such as medical leave, must request an incomplete grade contact from the instructor (prior to the end of the term) and receive a grade of “I”. The student will have a maximum of ONE term to complete the coursework. The “I” will automatically revert to a grade of “IF” should the student fails to complete the course requirements within one term or less as specified in the incomplete grade contract. An “IF” will calculate into the GPA as an “F”.

Incomplete Grade Contract All Incomplete Grades awarded by the professor must be accompanied by an Incomplete Grade contract. The contract (electronic version located on HSPortal under Academic Forms) must be filled in by the professor and ed to the Program Manager. The student must also be given a copy of the completed document (either hard copy or via ). Allow only enough time for the student to complete the work, with a maximum of one term (in most cases a few weeks is appropriate.) Please note: a student who ceases to attend class is not entitled to an incomplete grade. Use incomplete grades sparingly and only in exceptional circumstances.

Change of Grade Once a student has fulfilled the Incomplete Grade requirements, a Change of Grade form must be completed by the professor. The form is located on HSPortal under Academic Forms. The completed contract should be ed to HSnet located at
