What is the deadline for deferred grades? Can extensions be obtained?
In the 2002-3 semester the regulations concerning deferred grades for graduate courses changed. Under the current regulations a grade may be deferred only to the last day of the first month of the semester following the semester in which the course was taken. For example, if a course was taken in the fall semester, the deferred grade should be changed to a final grade no later than 31 st January. There may be occasional cases in which it is reasonable to extend a deferred grade past the deadline. In such cases, a request for an extended deferral should be documented by the graduate program chair and brought to the Dean of Graduate Studies for approval before the end of the first month of the semester following that in which the course was taken.
