Students have the right to appeal a grade when they believe that the grade was based on factors other than the student's academic performance in the course. The process for filing a grade appeal is as follows:
- The student must present written proof or justification to his/her Instructor that he/she deserves a grade change. If the request for a change of grade is denied then the student can submit her appeal to the academic program coordinator.
- The second level involves a meeting with the Academic Program Coordinator. The student must submit a written report of his/her meeting with the instructor to the Coordinator. If the Program Coordinator feels that there is sufficient cause to appeal a grade, then the Program Coordinator will initiate the appeal and forward the appeal to the Chairperson. If the department denies the appeal, then the student can submit his/her appeal to the academic department chairperson.
- The third level involves a meeting with the Academic Department Chairperson, In this case, the Chairperson will review the appeal and all pertinent documents available – grade rosters, copies of papers and exams- and determine whether the appeal can be granted or not. Once a ruling has been made, the case should be considered closed. If the department denies the appeal, then the student can submit his/her appeal to the Academic Standard Committee.
