GRADE, Corrections.

Grade Corrections For Temporary Grades (I And G Grades)

To correct a grade for a course in which the student received an Incomplete (I) or a G grade, the faculty member must go to the Office of the Registrar and completely fill out the Removal of Incomplete and G grade form.

Grade corrections should be processed as soon as possible to avoid complications to the student (for example, loss of financial aid or delayed inclusion on the Dean’s List). The deadline for submission of grades for courses in which a student earned an I or G grade is by the last day of class in the following semester. Failure to submit a grade for a course with an I or G will result in the grade of F.

Grade Corrections for Errors

To correct a grade, the faculty member must go to the Office of the Registrar and completely fill out the Correction of Grade form. The approval of the Associate Dean of Academic Services is required. Grade corrections are approved only in circumstances when there was an error on the part of the instructor. Computational errors are an example of this. Corrections are also approved when an academic appeal is resolved in favor of a higher grade. Students may not submit new work or missing work after the end of the semester to have a grade changed.

Grade corrections should be processed as soon as possible. The deadline for corrected grades is no later than the last day of class in the following semester.
