It is the responsibility of each faculty member to determine the final grade for each student according to criteria clearly defined and explained in the syllabus. Whenever a student desires to appeal a grade due to the belief that his or her rights and interests have been jeopardized by way of unfair, arbitrary or malicious exercise of faculty grading prerogatives, the following appeal procedures must be followed:
STEP 1: Conversation with the instructor.
STEP 2: Appeal to the ESL Institute.
STEP 3: Review and decision by the ESL Institute.
STEP 4: Appeal to the Executive Director for the Center for Global Education (if decision is rejected).
