Appeal a grade

From your Aurora home page, locate and select the Final Grade Appeal card.

The fee is refunded for a grade that is raised as a result of appeal. Be sure to keep your receipt.

After your appeal is submitted

Your appeal package will be forwarded to the department offering the course. There will be a second review of your final exam by the professor and a third party (either another professor or an appeal committee).

30 days after the grade appeal deadline, the department/academic unit must submit their decision to the Registrar’s Office. You will receive an email from the Registrar’s Office with the decision of your Grade appeal after the 30 days have passed.

A final grade cannot be lowered as a result of an appeal.
 

Term work returned or made available to students before the last day of classes is subject to the policies and procedures established by the academic unit. As outlined in the final grade procedure document, your first recourse is to speak to your instructor if you disagree with a grade. Ideally you can resolve your disagreement without a formal appeal.

If you've spoken to the instructor and still wish to formally appeal your grade, you must do so within 10 days of receiving your grade.

The fee of $50, per appealed term work grade, will be refunded for any grade that is changed as a result of the appeal. Full instructions are found on the appeal form. You must fill out the Term work appeal form and initiate it through your departmental office.
