Application for
Review of Grade
Important Information
1.
You should complete this form if you consider that a mistake has been made in the process of
calculating or determining the grade for a paper and wish to have the grade reviewed. A review of
grade involves a re-marking of all items of assessment that contribute to the final grade, and a
re-calculation of marks (You must include all items of assessment when applying for a review of
grade). As a result of the review your grade may be left unchanged, raised or lowered.
2.
A review of grade is not the same process as special consideration. If you are seeking special
consideration for reasons such as illness, injury, bereavement or trauma there is a separate
application process for this. See: http://www.waikato.ac.nz/sasd/examinations/exams3.shtml
3.
We cannot accept application forms until your grade has been made final. Provisional grades can
be amended before they go final. Please check your final grade before completing this application.
4.
This form must be received by the Assessment Office: no later than 14 days after receiving your
final results. That is, the third Monday in March for S Semester papers, the second Monday in
August for A Semester papers, and the second Monday in December for B Semester and full year
papers.
