Student Rights and Responsibilities
Academic Resolution
Purpose
Academic Resolution provides students an opportunity to seek redress of academic concerns to ensure their instructional experience represents a fair and consistent evaluation of student performance.
Academic Resolution Process
If a student has a concern about an instructor or their course and/or would like to formally request a revised letter grade, the student should first attempt to resolve their concerns with their instructor. If the student and instructor are not able to resolve the matter, the student may utilize the Academic Resolution process.
Students utilizing the Academic Resolution process are responsible for:
- Providing details and documentation that supports their request;
- Outlining their desired outcome;
- Engaging with a Student Affairs representative.
Grading is subjective and at the discretion of the instructor. A request for a revised letter grade may be submitted if the following conditions exist:
- An error was made in the calculation of the course grade;
- The instructor was incorrect with respect to an objective fact within the discipline, and this error affected the student’s final grade.
