Temporary Grades and Graduation
Students may not graduate with a temporary grade (I, K, M, or N) on their record. An Incomplete (I) grade is temporary; if the missing work is not completed by the end of the following semester, or an earlier date set by the instructor, the I automatically converts to an F and the grade point average is recalculated, unless the instructor submits another I grade.

Transfer Credit and GPA
Transfer credit grades earned elsewhere do not impact a student's Wright State grade point average. Wright State does not transfer in grades, only credits.
