Grade and Standing Appeals - Policy 168

This policy outlines the grounds and process by which students may appeal when they believe the academic consideration provided is not appropriate or when they have been unable to resolve course-related issues with their instructors.

The University is responsible for dealing with student appeals fairly and must adhere to the timelines established in this policy. Students should refer to Undergraduate significant dates for appeal timelines and refer to the Senate website Appeals tab for detailed information and procedures for submitting a grade and/or standing appeal. Complete submissions must include the necessary supporting documents (such as appeal forms, health/medical documentation, etc).   

Students are responsible for reviewing all pertinent information prior to the submission of a formal academic appeal. Incomplete appeals will not be accepted. Students are responsible for ensuring that a formal appeal is submitted via the Senate online appeals portal, by the deadline dates published in the calendar, and must adhere to the timelines established in these policies.
