Dear Mia:
We have received the results of your petition request #13770 to review an instructor’s decision on grading related to your Group Assignment #1 in ENIN 301 (F25).
As per Arts and Science Academic Calendar, Academic Petitions and Appeals Regulation 1.7.1.10, To Facilitate a Formal Review of Instructors’ Decisions on Grading of Term Work and/or Final Examinations, a student may petition for a formal review of a grade assigned in a course subject to the marking scheme set out by the course instructor.
Your petition letter was sent to the Dan School of Drama and Music Chair of Undergraduate Studies so that they could understand the reasons for your request before they facilitated this review. As part of formal review process, two subject matter experts (selected by the Chair) were provided with your Group Assignment #1 as well as the relevant instructions for this component.
This review did not result in an increase in your Group Assignment #1 grade. Your final course grade in ENIN 301 (F25) will remain unchanged.
Please know that according to Academic Petition and Appeal regulation 1.7.1.10. at https://www.queensu.ca/academic-calendar/arts-science/appeal-regulations/#text the reconsidered grade, which may be higher than or remain unchanged from the original grade, may not be appealed.
If you are concerned with the impact that your grade in ENIN 301 has on your GPA, you may want to consider repeating this course in a future term. When repeating the exact same course code, both attempts will appear on your transcript, however only the higher grade will be included within your GPA.
Sincerely,
Academic Petitions Team
