Within one academic year of completing all required courses, certificate candidates undergo a Final Portfolio Review. See the Certificate Programs Handbook for further details. This grade is given only at the request of the student and at the discretion of the instructor. The time allowed for completion of work is set by the instructor, but may not exceed four weeks after the end of the semester in which the course was taken. However, written evaluations and grades are only mailed to certificate candidates and to students enrolled in courses for credit.
Evaluations arrive approximately six weeks after the semester ends.
Grades and transcripts are not available by phone. To request an academic grade review, you must first ask the instructor for a verbal explanation of the grade or evaluation. The instructor will then send you a written response and will forward a copy to the CE Registrar. Grades are subject to revision by the instructor, with the approval of the CE Registrar, for one semester after the course was taken. After one semester all grades become a permanent part of the academic record and cannot be changed.
