Regrade request
We encourage you to submit a regrade request when you find an issue with the evaluation of your coursework. Here are some tips to expedite the process and improve the experience:
- Make sure to submit the request before its deadline.
- Please be calm and respectful at all times.
- Please be brief and to the point.
When you submit a regrade request, the TA who evaluated your submission will be notified and read your request. Suppose the issue is a simple oversight or misunderstanding on the TA's end. In that case, they will address it right away. On the other hand, suppose the problem relates to a subjective interpretation of a rubric specification (very few of those are on our rubrics). In that case, the TA will ask another teaching staff member and the head-TA to review the regrade request. These TAs will collectively decide on your regrade request. If you are not content with their decision, you can bring the issue to the instructor's attention.
Please do not argue with the teaching assistants who evaluated your work (or your regrade requests).
When an issue is brought to the attention of the instructor, he will carefully consider it. He may speak with the teaching staff who graded you. Moreover, he may invite you to a meeting to understand the source of discontent better. The instructor will then make a decision, and that decision is final. Of course, it is perfectly okay if you disagree with the final decision, but please respect it.
