Administration

Medical Documentation

• As noted in the Course Outline, if you are unable to complete an assignment due to major illness or other circumstances completely outside of your control, have your doctor complete an official UTSC Medical Certificate and submit it to your instructor as soon as possible.
• It is very important that you notify your instructor as soon as possible, if you find yourself in such a situation. It is always easier to resolve situations earlier, rather than later.

Assignment Re-Mark Request

• If you feel that there has been a mistake in the marking of one of your assignments, you MUST complete an assignment re-mark request form.
• When completing this form, you must be very clear and concise; if we can't understand what you are asking for, we won't be able to re-mark your assignment.
• Attach your completed form to a printout of your assignment, and to your TA's marking sheet. Give all of these things to your TA.
• Your TA will return the form to you either with a revised mark or with an explanation as to why the original mark stands. Keep in mind that the new mark may be higher or lower than the original mark, depending on the outcome of a complete re-mark of your assignment.
• If you are not satisfied with your teaching assistant's re-mark, please give the assigment re-mark request form, with your printout and TA's marking sheet still attached, to your instructor. Once your instructor has examined the assignment, she may change your mark, or she may hold a meeting with you and your TA to resolve the dispute.

Notes:

• If an assignment re-mark form has not been completed, we reserve the right to not re-mark your assignment.
• If your request was more than 2 weeks after the assignment was returned, it will be rejected.
• Assignment re-marks will not be discussed via email.
