16 Grade Appeal

If a student has a concern about an assignment, grade, or other academic issues, he or she should first email the instructor explaining the issue.  Include the date, time, class, and assignment or grade in question.  If the situation cannot be resolved via email, request a meeting with the instructor, and bring in any relevant paperwork or assignment.  If the situation remains unresolved, make an appointment with the respective academic Dean.  If, after meeting with the faculty member and the Dean, a student has not had the issue resolved, he or she may complete the Student Issue Concern form on the MSC website.  This form can also be used for non-academic issues. If the student is still not satisfied with the final semester grade, he or she can file a Grade Appeal.  Students are directed to the Student Handbook for information on grade appeals.
