Coding Dojo Incomplete Policy

An Incomplete (I) course status is a temporary extension which allows a Coding Dojo student two (2) calendar days from the end of a course to submit unfulfilled coursework requirements. An Incomplete (I) mark is intended to support students who experience extenuating circumstances that are outside of their control or which are otherwise unforeseeable. Incomplete (I) marks are not intended for students who have fallen behind in their coursework and request an extension past the last date of the course solely to submit coursework.

To receive an Incomplete (I) mark, the student must petition the course Instructor or Student Experience Manager in writing. The period to request an Incomplete (I) mark begins on the first day of the final week and must be submitted three days before the course end date.

A student may experience certain life events or other pressing commitments that may result in the need for an Incomplete (I) extension. In all instances, Coding Dojo encourages the student to work closely with his/her instructor to meet the course requirements while balancing professional and personal obligations.

At the time of the petition, the Instructor and Student Experience Manager must determine:

If the student experienced circumstances contributing to the need for an Incomplete (I) extension, or if there were unforeseen, extenuating, or extreme circumstance(s) experienced by the student (as stated in the student's petition).

Examples of extenuating or extreme circumstances would be, but are not limited to:

  • Loss of home
  • Medical conditions, injuries, hospital stays, and medical emergencies
  • Natural disasters
  • Loss of family members
  • Family emergencies or care for a family member
  • Military commitments

The Instructor and Student Experience Manager must approve or deny the petition in writing to the student within three business days of receiving the student's petition, but no later than the last day of class.

Students who are not part of Coding Dojo's programs should refer to CTU's Incomplete Policy.
