Students should state the basis for contestation (e.g., error in calculation, missing points, etc.).The Course Director will review the student’s score or grade and report the result of the review in writing to the student and Senior Associate Dean of Basic Sciences Office before the deadline for grade finalization. If the matter remains unresolved, students may submit a written appeal to the Sr. Associate Dean of Basic Sciences Office within 24 hours of receiving the written determination from the Course Director.
