Grade Review Policy

Grading is to be done in an objective and impartial manner. However, if a student wishes to have a grade reviewed, s/he should follow the following procedure:

  1. Request the concerned course teacher for the grade to be recalculated. The request must be made in writing within seven days after the publication of results.
  2. If the outcome of the above is not satisfactory, apply to the respective Head of the Department, who will review the grade based on student submissions. The student will be informed about the decision in writing.
  3. If the outcome is still not satisfactory, submit a formal application in the prescribed form to the Controller of Exams to review the grade. At this stage, students will be required to deposit the required fee for grade review. The fee will be refunded to the respective student account in case the original grade is improved. This review process will be as follows:
    1. Upon receipt of the complete application, the Controller of Exams will forward the relevant documents to the respective Dean.
    2. The concerned Dean will form a grade review committee comprising one of the Professors/Associate Professors from the department, Controller of Examinations, and another faculty member who usually teaches the course or is adequately prepared to teach/familiar with the course contents.
    3. The committee will review the application with all the relevant course materials and documents as applicable and inform the final decision in writing to the Dean within fifteen days.
    4. The Controller’s Office will communicate the final decision in writing to the student and file/upgrade the record accordingly.
