Appeals

Academic Appeals

Instructors can make a grade change within one semester after the final grade deadline. Disputes regarding course grades and class policies should be discussed with the appropriate instructor. If the instructor does not resolve the matter, the student should discuss the problem with the first level of academic administration (Department Chair or Director). If the matter is still unresolved, the student should discuss the problem with the next level(s) of academic administration (Director and/or Dean). If the matter still remains unresolved, the student may submit the Academic Appeal form on my.RochesterU.edu within one semester of the incident or grade report. The appeal should include all supporting documentation. The decision of the Academic Appeals Committee is final and decisions will be communicated via institutional email within five to seven days. 

Disputes regarding institutional academic policies such as attendance and withdrawals should be submitted through the Academic Appeal form on my.RochesterU.edu within one semester of the incident or grade report. The appeal should include all supporting documentation. The decision of the Academic Appeals Committee is final and decisions will be communicated via institutional email within five to seven days.
