Challenging Grading Decisions

A student desiring to challenge a grading decision must first discuss the issue with the instructor issuing the grade. If the student and the instructor cannot resolve the issue, the student will contact the appropriate Program Director. Program Directors will review grading challenges for clear error. The Program Directors will support the grading decision of the instructor unless clear error is found. If a Program Director determines that clear error occurred, the Program Director will coordinate with the instructor to correct the error. The decisions of the Program Directors will be final, and additional appeals concerning grading decisions are not permitted. This provision is not applicable to appeals concerning grading decisions that involve discrimination or harassment. The College has published specific policies and procedures to address grievances and complaints involving harassment and discrimination.
