A grade change in the Graduate School is permitted only for the following reasons:
- Clerical error
- Grade miscalculated
- Grade misreported
- Not submitted by the deadline
- Re-evaluate the class curve
- Work completed (Resolution of incomplete or progress grades)
A final grade change in the Graduate School is not permitted when:
- A student submits additional or revised work, e.g., coursework, exams, labs, papers, quizzes, etc.
- The final grades of other students in the class are posted. A decision to re-evaluate one or some students, but not all, brings consistency and fairness into question.
A final grade can be changed only as a result of clerical or computational error.
Instructors must submit grade changes via the grade roster in MyUW Faculty Center.

- Graduating students are graded before the end of the term in 790, 890, and 990 courses.
