A student may register for a course on a non-credit basis, for which he or she pays full tuition.<br />

To have a grade of "NC" recorded, he or she must fulfill all course requirements.<br />

All requests for audit courses must be approved in writing by the instructor and Provost. Only<br />

lecture courses may be audited. No new first-year student may audit any course during the first<br />

semester of residence at <strong>LaGrange</strong> <strong>College</strong>.<br />

An "I" is a temporary grade, assigned by an instructor within the last three weeks of the term to<br />

students who are doing satisfactory work and who cannot complete the course due to<br />

circumstances beyond their control. Should conditions prohibiting completion of a course arise<br />

within the first eight weeks, students should withdraw.<br />

An ―I‖ is to be removed by the date indicated on the Academic Calendar. Failure to remove an<br />

"I" by the date set initiates the following action: The Registrar will write a letter to the student,<br />

using the address on file. The letter indicates that the student has two weeks to respond.<br />

Otherwise the "I" grade will be converted to an "F."<br />

Grades are assigned and recorded for each course at the end of each term. Grades are available to<br />

students on the Web. Transcripts are withheld for any student who is under financial obligation<br />

to the <strong>College</strong>.<br />
