To access a final examination script, a student must make a written request to the head of the academic unit in which a course is offered. This request is subject to the following conditions:

Any such request must be made following release of examination results for the semester or session in which the course was taken and within one month of the official release of grades by the University.

The final examination script must be viewed in the presence of the course instructor or other person delegated by the head of the academic unit. Both the instructor and the student have the right to be accompanied by a registered student or a member of the faculty or staff of the University.

The final examination script must not be taken away or tampered with in any way.

All final examination scripts shall be retained by the academic unit for a minimum of one academic year.

  

6.8.4 Rereading of Final Examination Scripts
A student may apply to have a final examination script reread whether or not the student has obtained a passing grade in that course.

A student is encouraged to request to access the final examination script prior to submitting a request to have the final examination reread. For further information refer to Access to Final Examination Scripts.

A student who wishes to have a final examination script reread must make application in writing to the Office of the Registrar within one month of the official release of grades by the University. When a rereading is requested, the University will make every reasonable attempt to have the rereading conducted by a faculty member(s) other than the original marker(s). Students are advised to refer to relevant academic units for policies and procedures governing rereads of examinations.

An appropriate fee per course must be paid at the time of application. For further information refer to the Financial and Administrative Services website at www.mun.ca/finance/fees/. If the final letter grade in the course is raised after rereading or if the final numeric grade increases by at least 5%, then the fee is refunded. If the final letter grade in the course is unchanged or lowered, and if the final numeric grade increases by less than 5% or is unchanged or lowered, then the fee is forfeited.

6.9 Grading

6.9.1 Grading Systems
For each course, an academic unit may choose to use a numeric grading system, a pass/fail grading system, or both.

When a grade is to be numeric, its integer value between 0% and 100% shall be submitted to the Registrar. The corresponding letter grades, and the points awarded for each credit hour, are as follows. An explanation of each of these letter grades can be found below under Descriptions of Letter Grades Which Correspond to Numeric Grades.

80-100% (A): 4 points per credit hour
65-79% (B): 3 points per credit hour
55-64% (C): 2 points per credit hour
50-54% (D): 1 point per credit hour
0-49% (F): 0 points
When a grade is to indicate only whether a student passed or failed a course, one of the following letter grades shall be submitted to the Registrar, for which no points shall be applicable:
PAS (Pass): indicates that performance met or exceeded expectations; credit is awarded for the successful completion of the course
FAL (Fail): indicates that performance was below expectations; no credit is awarded for the successful completion of the course
In a work term course, the following letter grade may instead be submitted to the Registrar, for which no points shall be applicable:

PWD (Pass With Distinction): indicates that performance significantly exceeded expectations; credit is awarded for the successful completion of the course
The use of a grading system other than those described above, including the use of the Pass With Distinction letter grade in a course which is not a work term course, requires the approval of the University Senate.

Where circumstances warrant, and in accordance with the relevant University regulations, a student may be assigned one of the following letter grades, for which no points shall be applicable:

INC (Incomplete): grade cannot be determined until the student has completed additional course requirements; see Grading, Incomplete Grades
ABS (Absent): grade cannot be determined until the student has written a deferred final examination; see Final Examinations, Exemptions From Final Examinations and Procedures for Applying to Write Deferred Examinations
DR (Drop): student has dropped the course without academic prejudice; see Registration, Dropping Courses Without Academic Prejudice
DEX (Drop Under Exceptional Circumstances): student has been permitted to retroactively drop the course without academic prejudice; see Registration, Dropping Courses Retroactively
AEG (Aegrotat): student has been granted aegrotat status; see Grading, Aegrotat Status
The grading system to be used in a course, including the option to choose between multiple grading systems, is at the discretion of the academic unit, and cannot be appealed by a student.

When an academic unit offers a choice of grading systems where only one is numeric, students are encouraged to consult with an academic advisor before declaring their choice, as this decision may have implications for program admissions, scholarships, and other matters of an academic nature.

Should any dispute or uncertainty arise in the application of the method of evaluation to determine a student’s grade in a course, or in a student’s choice of grading system when this option has been provided, the final authority to make grading decisions rests with the Dean of the appropriate Faculty/School or the Vice-President of the Marine Institute, in consultation with the course instructor and the head of the appropriate academic unit.
6.12.5.3 Failure to Appear or Respond
If at any stage of the Procedures for Resolution of Alleged Academic Offences at the Unit Level, the accused fails to respond to a charge, without reasonable cause, within two weeks of notification of an allegation, action may be taken on the charge in the absence of the accused.

If at any stage of the Procedures for Resolution of Alleged Academic Offences at the Unit Level, the accuser fails to appear at a scheduled meeting to defend an allegation, without reasonable cause, the action will be dismissed.

  

6.12.5.4 Penalties in the Case of Resolution at the Unit level
A student who has been found guilty of an academic offence will be subject to a penalty or penalties commensurate with the offence. Some cases may warrant more than one penalty for the same offence, and previous academic misconduct will be taken into account in determining the severity of penalties. The range of penalties and their determination are:
Resubmission: of work with appropriate reduction in grade: will allow a student to complete and submit the work a second time.

Reprimand: will be in the nature of a warning by the head of the academic or administrative unit to the student that the student's behaviour has been unacceptable to the University.

Reduction of grade: will apply to an examination, test, or assignment to which an offence is relevant, and will be decided by the head of the academic or administrative unit.

  

6.12.6 Procedures for Resolution of Alleged Academic Offences by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies
  

6.12.6.1 General Information
If the matter cannot be resolved following the Procedures for Resolution of Alleged Academic Offences at the Unit Level, or if, in the opinion of the head of the academic or administrative unit, the allegation involves a major breach of University regulations, or in cases involving alleged offences on final examinations, evaluative instruments worth 40% or more of the final grade, allegations of impersonation or allegations of submission of forged documents, the following Procedures for Resolution of Alleged Academic Offences by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies shall apply. In the application of these procedures, in the case of students attending Grenfell Campus, the Grenfell Campus Sub-Committee of the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies shall assume the role and authority defined below for the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies. Should there be an instance where the case cannot be heard by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies or the Grenfell Campus Sub-Committee of the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies, but is in the first instance heard by the Senate Committee on Academic Appeals, the Senate Committee on Academic Appeals shall assume the role and authority defined below for the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies.

-If you applied for your student loan at least three weeks prior to the deadline for fees payment and if your loan covers all your fees there will be no late payment charge
 
 
If I have a student loan can I pay my fees by another method?
-Yes . However, if you wish to do that you must do prior to the date that your student loan is processed.
  
 
If I pay by another method after my loan has been processed, will the amount still be deducted from my loan?
-Yes. The fees will also be deducted from your loan and you will have to wait until automatic refunds are done after the 100% drop deadline. The refund will be done back through the method of payment.
 
 
If I am paying with a tuition voucher and my fees are less than the voucher how do I get the credit for the unused portion?
-Another tuition voucher will be forwarded to you for the credit remaining.
 
 
If I have a tuition voucher or scholarship applied to my student account after my student loan has been issued can I have my loan changed to reflect the payment?
-Student Loans can not be changed after they have been issued.
 
 
What happens if I pick up a course after the deadline date for fees payment?
-Fees for charges added to the student account by the deadline for fees payment must be paid by that date to avoid the late payment penalty. If you add a course after that date you have 48 hours to pay without incurring the late payment charge.
 
 
If I have charges dropped how will my refund be done?
-Refunds are done after the 100% drop date back through the method of payment.
 
 
If I have a student loan and I drop courses or opt out of the health and dental will that amount be refunded to me?
-No. It is a requirement of student aid that these refunds be returned to the National Student Loan Service to reduce the student’s debt outstanding.
 
 
How do I opt out of the Health and/or Dental Insurance?
-Undergraduate students with alternate coverage may opt of the health and dental insurance on line at:
1. Undergraduate Student - https://munsu.ca/services/hdplan/
2. Graduate Student - http://www.gsumun.ca/health-dental-plan
3. International Student - https://www.mun.ca/international/programming/healthinsurance/

2. Graduate Student - http://www.gsumun.ca/health-dental-plan
3. International Student - https://www.mun.ca/international/programming/healthinsurance/
 
 
If I have completed the opt out for health and/or dental insurance, can I reduce my payment by that amount?
-Yes. Payment of the student account can be reduced by the amount of the insurance opt out. The amount will show as an outstanding balance until the opt outs are processed after the undergraduate 100% drop date.
 
 
Where can I get a “Confirmation of Enrollment”?
-The “Confirmation of Enrollment” is available at the Registrars Office.
 
 
How can I get a receipt for Income Tax Purposes?
