1. When submitted to the Department
of Registration and Records, end of course grades are final and not subject
to change by reason of a revision of the teacher's judgment; nor are submitted
grades to be revised on the basis of a second trial (e.g., a new examination
or additional work undertaken or completed). Changes may only be made within
one calendar year after the date final grades were submitted in order to correct
an error in computation or transcribing, or where part of the student's work
has been unintentionally overlooked.
2. A Grade Change Report form requires the teacher's signed statement as to the
reason for the change, the approval of the department head, and the approval
of the dean of the college in which the course is taught. Such approval is not
necessary when changing an IN or LA.
