***Important summer information:
Students can choose to work on assignments during both summer sessions. Students that registered for a course summer I session can choose to receive an Incomplete grade for summer I and continue to work into the summer II session. This allows a 12-week period to complete the course work. DO NOT REGISTER FOR THE COURSE AGAIN.
Students registered Summer I session:
If you choose to work during both sessions your ITMA facilitator will submit an I (incomplete) grade to the ITMA database and Hokie Spa at the end of summer I if at least one assignment has been submitted. When you have successfully completed all assignments, a grade change will be submitted by the facilitator of the course at the end of the 12-week period. (If you do not submit at least one assignment during summer I we will assign a grade of NG. An NG grade is calculated as part of the overall GPA and is treated as a failing grade until all work is submitted and a grade change can be processed.)
You also have the option to complete the course during the summer I
Students registered Summer II session:
Students have the option to submit work starting with summer I session. Grades will not be available until August 16, 2018 even if you finish the course work early.
Both Summer I and Summer II students:
Please email your current facilitator and let them know your summer plans as far as finishing this course. Include your name, semester you registered for the course, and the semester you plan to finish this course.
