Grade Appeals

TIME LIMIT FOR APPEALING A GRADE:
A student who wishes to question a grade received for a class should first discuss the situation with the instructor of record who issued the grade. If the issue is not resolved, the student should contact the appropriate Department Chairperson to review the concern.  If the student is not satisfied with the Department Chairperson’s decision, the student may contact the appropriate Dean of Instruction for assistance.   If necessary, the student may request a review by the Provost/Vice President of Academic Affairs after all other avenues have been exhausted.  Established departmental procedures will be utilized to resolve concerns related to grades received for a class.  

Students who believe that the final course grade is incorrect have two weeks (ten working days) after the grade is issued to appeal the grade.  Students who believe that a grade earned in a class activity is incorrect have one week (five working days) after the grade is issued to appeal the grade.  Exceptions require the approval of the Provost/Vice President of Academic Affairs.
