Grade Reassessment

Calculation Errors or Omissions

Students who believe there have been errors or omissions in the calculation of their final grade for a course may request a grade reassessment. They must submit a request in writing to the chair of the department offering the course no later than the 10th class day of the succeeding semester. The request must pertain to work completed during the semester. Students must also submit relevant assignments or tests that have been returned to them.

The chair shall forward the student's request to the instructor and the instructor shall respond to the chair within five class days. The instructor has the responsibility of ensuring that the calculation and totalling of marks is accurate. The instructor must reply to the chair, in writing, giving assurance that the review is complete.

Where there is a change in the grade, the chair signs the "Grade Reassessment" form and forwards it to Undergraduate Program Services, Office of Registrarial Services. The Office of Registrarial Services will advise the student in writing of the change of grade. If there is no change to the grade, it is the chair's responsibility to inform the student in writing.
