Reappraisal Process

Students may request a reappraisal of any unsatisfactory summative evaluation decision for graded term work or academic assessment (final course grade) within the MD Program. Students should be familiar with the policy for CSM Reappraisal of Graded Term Work and Academic Assessments. This policy outlines the procedures and appropriate rationale for requesting a reappraisal.


Appeals Process

A student may request an appeal of any reappraisal decision. Students should be familiar with the policy for CSM UME Academic Assessment and Graded Term Work Procedures. This document outlines the procedure and appropriate rationale for requesting an appeal for an unsatisfactory result. Appeals must have gone through the appropriate reappraisal process.

University Appeals Committee

Decisions of the UME Faculty Appeals Committee may be appealed to the University Appeals Committee.

Procedures for appealing a final grade reappraisal beyond the departmental level are detailed in J. Student Appeals to the University Appeals Committee and University Appeals Tribunal and are the same for a final grade as for a piece of graded term work.

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
