An exception for the need to be released from courses may arise if the call to active duty occurs near the 学期结束, when the student has completed all or most course requirements. In such situations, students should consult with their instructors to negotiate a grade. At that time an instructor can opt to give the student a grade on the work that has been completed thus far or an "I" (incomplete) so the student can complete the coursework at a later time. It is up to each course instructor to assign a letter grade or an "I".

注:如果一个“I”被分配, both the student and the instructor should clearly discuss the conditions for completing the course. Again, it will the discretion of the instructor to opt to give a letter grade or assign an "I".

Students will be responsible for all tuition and fees for any course(s) in which they receive an "I" or a final grade.
