Syllabus and Late Policy
Syllabus: Important UMGC policies are included in the Syllabus >>Content >>Syllabus.
Please review the Syllabus information yourself and refer students to the Syllabus for their review.
Please closely review the UMGC policies for “Incomplete” grades.
Late Policy: Please review the Late Policy posted in the classroom by >>Content>>Late Policy. There have been changes to the Late Policy.
Please refer students to the Late Policy for their review.
The class syllabus includes important information for the student as well as the assigned faculty instructor. It is located under the CONTENT tab in a specific module labeled Syllabus. Assigned faculty instructors are reminded to review the Syllabus at the onset of each class as some content may have changed. Instructors should also remind their students of the Syllabus as a resource to answer many of the questions they may have about the class, assignments, UMGC policies, etc. The syllabus also included a generic class schedule. Instructors are encouraged to amend this schedule with actual assignment due dates.
Among the UMGC policies reflected in the Syllabus is 170.71 Policy of Grade of Incomplete. The Incomplete (I) grade is entered when circumstances beyond the student’s control make it impossible for the student to complete the required workload (e.g., class assignments) within the scheduled class period. The eligibility for an Incomplete course grade is included in this policy statement.
The Syllabus also includes a separate statement on the Late Policy. Note that in many classes the Late Policy has 1) been lifted from the Syllabus and is presented as a separate Module in CONTENTS or 2) is replicated in CONTENTS. In any case their should be no significant difference between any iteration of the class Late Policy. The Late Policy is very important to students as it can have a direct impact on the grade assessment for their class assignments. Assigned instructors should direct their students to review the Late Policy.
