F Grades. When giving a student an F grade, please select the F and number that best correspond with the student’s “last week of participation” (e.g., an F0 for “never attended” and an F8 for “stopped attending at midterm”). Collecting this information is important for our compliance with federal financial aid requirements.
Incompletes. Like many institutions, UWM has seen an increase in incompletes in recent semesters. Please limit incompletes to situations in which a student has nearly completed the coursework (per our incomplete policy: https://uwm.edu/registrar/students/your-student-record/grades/) and ensure that you and the student have agreed on a plan and timeline for the student to complete the work. If an incomplete is not appropriate given the situation, please refer students to their advisors to discuss other options (such as a course repeat or a potential withdrawal appeal).
