On occasion, a student will ask you to review the final grade you
assigned the student. Should you agree the grade is incorrect
(typically the result of adding test scores incorrectly or misplacing
an exam or assignment), you may authorize a change to the student's
grade by following these steps.
- Pick up a Grade Change form in your departmental or school
recorder's office.
- Complete the form and return it to the recorder's office. Do not
give the form to the student to carry forward.
- The form requires the approval of the school, usually in the person
of the Associate Dean. If he or she supports the request, they will sign
the form and deliver it to the Office of the Registrar.
- We will process the form and post the student's new grade. This
typically occurs within a couple of working days, though grade
processing at the end of a term may delay it slightly. These
notifications are mailed every Monday for grades changed the previous
week, so you can tell the student they will be notified of the change in
a timely fashion.
If you do not find an error in scoring or recording of the grade and
want the student to provide more information to support the request,
please refer the student to the campus
grade change policy.
This site explains the grade appeal process and allows the student to print out
the form used by all schools on the campus.
