Grade Change

A grade change may be processed up to three weeks into the following semester of receiving the grade regardless of enrollment status. A grade change may be made for the following reasons:

  • There has been a calculation error in computing the grade.
  • The wrong grade was posted to the grade roll.
  • To re-evaluate a previous grade with no additional work submitted.

The grade change process can be initiated by the student or course instructor. The grade change cards are located in the Registrar’s office and may only be given to faculty and processed by faculty. The card is then properly filled out and returned to the Registrar for approval and processing. Processing time usually takes 3– 5 days.

A previous grade can be changed to a “W” (official withdrawal) if the student had extenuating circumstances. The student should file a petition for withdrawal with the Academic Standards Committee.
