Dr. Kiran C. Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine (KPCOM)—Department of Couple and Family Therapy 2024–2025 270 • honors (final transcript only, if indicated) • withdrawal and/or leaves of absence A student is considered in good academic standing when the student is not on probation or dismissal and also has a cumulative (overall) grade point average (GPA) equal to or greater than 3.0. Students with a GPA of less than 3.0 will be placed on probation and will not be considered in good academic standing. A student who is not in good academic standing is at risk of not graduating. In Progress (IP) When the work for a particular course extends beyond the semester of registration, a grade of in progress (IP) may be assigned. The student does not reregister for that course. Time allowed to complete outstanding work will be determined by the course director. A maximum of two consecutive academic semesters may be given to complete the course, including the semester of registration. After that time, the grade of IP will be converted to the grade earned. An IP grade may be granted only if the student is maintaining a passing average on all required coursework up to the point of the request. Students, rather than faculty, must initiate a request for an IP grade. A student must discuss with the student’s instructor the need for an IP grade in the course and then make a formal, written request to the instructor for an IP grade. The program director must be notified of this request. Such requests, unless there is an unexpected medical emergency, must be approved two weeks before the last regularly scheduled class. The IP Grade Request Form must include a detailed description of the work that needs to be completed, the term, expected completion date, and any other information agreed to by the student and instructor. Signatures must be completed prior to final approval and filing the originally signed form with the program coordinator. It is the responsibility of the student to work with the instructor and submit completed work by the agreed upon date and prior to the last day of class of the following term. At the end of the following term, if the work has not been completed, the IP grade is changed to an earned grade. Students who have an outstanding I or IP grade or who have a failing average may not receive an additional IP. In the Department of Couple and Family Therapy, students have until the end of the next term to complete all courses requirements once an IP grade is posted on the transcript. If coursework is not completed by the end of next term, the student will be assigned the grade earned. No IP grades are given for practicum courses in the Department of Couple and Family Therapy. Students will not be able to proceed with practicum courses, until the IP grade in the ethics course is successfully resolved with a B- or a better grade.
