Grade Appeals Policy

Faculty teaching LIBR1101 are expected to be familiar with and follow the State University of West Georgia grade appeals process. Policies and procedures related to grade appeals are included in the State University of West Georgia Faculty Handbook, Sections 208.01-208.03 and 208.05, and the State University of West Georgia Student Handbook, Appendix E. The Student Grade Appeal Form delineates each step of the process.

Any student questioning a final course grade in LIBR1101 should direct the initial inquiry to his/her LIBR1101 instructor. If the student indicates his/her intention to proceed with a formal grade appeal after discussion with the instructor, the instructor should advise the student of the appeals process as outlined in the State University of West Georgia Student Handbook, Appendix E and inform the student that an appeal must be decided no later than the semester after the appealed grade was assigned (UWG Faculty Handbook, Section 208.02). The student is responsible for initiating the formal appeal process.

Although not required by UWG policies, it is highly recommended that the faculty member, department head, and Library Director respond to the appeal in writing at the appropriate level of the appeals process.
