You must refer to the graduate academic calendar grade appeals process. If you have exhausted all possibilities under that section, an appeal may be submitted to the Graduate Students Appeals Committee (GSAC).
Under the calendar provisions, each department, faculty or school may have individualized processes for formal grade reassessment, but the process typically involves having at least one other instructor who has taught the course in question or who is familiar with the content of the course reassess an unmarked copy of the assignment(s), examination(s), or other course requirement(s) in question.
In order to ensure fairness, each program is required to establish program guidelines for grade re-assessment. These guidelines must indicate the steps for reassessment at the program level that are undertaken in any case of requests from graduate students. While individual instructors in programs reserve the ability to determine which opportunities within the program-wide grade reassessment process will be applied (e.g. opportunity or not to rewrite a paper and/or a final exam), it is understood that you may submit to GSAC a petition contesting this reassessment process.
GSAC will hear the case only where the departmental level reassessment process has already been undertaken and concluded.
This type of appeal will require the following supporting documents (as applicable):
