Grade Disputes on Examinations or Assignments

A student who wishes to question a grade on an exam or assignment must do so within three school days from the day the grade is received.  In the case of final examinations, students will have three school days from the posted date of their grade.  Requests for review of a grade must be submitted to the instructor in writing, with documentation supporting the request. The instructor is responsible for responding to the student within five school days from receipt of the complaint.  Extenuating circumstances, such as semester breaks or temporary unavailability of faculty, may necessitate a longer interval between request and resolution.  See the Institute Catalog for the process to challenge the course grade.  For classes taken outside the Program, students need to follow the procedures outlined in the Institute Catalog.
