Incomplete, Audit, and Grade-Change Rules
An Incomplete (I) grade denotes coursework not finished due to illness or other circumstances the instructor accepts as beyond the student's control. If not resolved to a letter grade by the end of the grace period — the eighth week of the next regular fall or spring semester, or 12 calendar months from the initial semester's start date for Aviation flight courses — an Incomplete automatically becomes an F. An Incomplete does not satisfy the prerequisite requirement for the next course level.
Audited (AU) courses carry no credit and no regular grade, and AU grades are not computed in the student's GPA. An NA grade is recorded when a student was not academically active in a course and did not academically engage.
A final grade may be changed from F to W only through a Registrar-processed request, for failure to withdraw in a timely manner or non-attendance, subject to instructor notice and appeal to the Academic Standards Policies & Procedures Committee.

Does the same grading scale apply to every course?
No. The general scale applies to most courses, but Atlantic Cape publishes separate percentage-to-grade breakpoints for Nursing (NURS) courses and Academy of Culinary Arts courses (CUBP, CULA, CULN), and specified Aviation Flight courses (AVIT) are graded Pass/Fail rather than by letter grade. Students in these programs should consult the college catalog's Grading section for the scale that applies to their courses.
