Change of Grade

A change of grade is authorized only:

  1. If there is an error in the original grade due to a miscalculation, transcription error, spreadsheet error, reevaluation of student work or inadvertent exclusion of student work that was completed during the term of the course;
  2. If coursework has been submitted and graded to remove an approved incomplete (IN) based on an established timeline and expectations the instructor outlined on the Request for Incomplete Grade Form;
  3. As a replacement of an “academic integrity grade” (M) indicator; or
  4. As a replacement of a “no grade” (NG) indicator.

A change of grade requires a faculty signature on a grade change form. Upon receipt of the grade change, the original grade, incomplete (IN), academic integrity (M) or no grade (NG) indicator will be replaced by the final grade and calculated in the student’s term and cumulative grade point average. Petitions for exceptions to this policy must be made in writing to the registrar. Supporting documentation must be included.
