College of Education Grade Appeal Procedures

Students may appeal undergraduate or graduate grades which they believe were the result of instructor, computational, or clerical error or contrary to procedures established in course syllabi; or were prejudicial or capricious.

Steps to follow:

  1. Informal resolution with the instructor. Students will seek informal resolution with the instructor of record or other appropriate individual. Ideally, they will be able to meet with the faculty member within the regular semester session. It is best to submit a grade appeal request to the instructor via email. The email subject should be 鈥淕rade Appeal鈥�. This process must be initiated no later than 30 calendar days immediately following the assignment of the original grade.

    In the body of the email, make sure to include the following:
    1. Your name as it is listed on the class roster
    2. The course number, including section
    3. A detailed description of why you believe you received a grade you did not deserve.

    This process may resolve the grade dispute, but if it does not, proceed to step 2.

  2. Meet with Department Chair. If an informal resolution with the instructor is not possible, students are advised to go to the Department Chair for further resolution. Please visit the College website to view academic departments at /coe/departments.

  3. Formal Grade Appeal to Associate Dean. If the matter is not resolved with the Department Chair, the student may submit a formal grade appeal, in writing, to the Associate Dean of the College within 21 calendar days after receiving the decision of the Department Chair. The student shall submit the COE Grade Appeal Request Form (page 2), including any documentation, to the COE Grade Appeals Dropbox.

The College Associate Dean will investigate the student鈥檚 claim and attempt to resolve the appeal within 21 calendar days. If the matter is not resolved in the college, the appeal will be forwarded to the Student Grade Appeals Board. The review process and procedures of the Student Grade Appeals Board are detailed in AA policy AA 2017-01; a written decision of the panel will be sent to the student appellant and all individuals involved in the appeal.
