Article 36
A student has the right to appeal the final grade of a course within
a period not exceeding 15 days from the date of the approval of the
final result. The rules of implementation of these by-laws specify the
mechanism and procedures for appealing the final result.
The Rule of Implementation for Article 36
1. A Student may appeal the final examination score of a course by
completing a form for re-grading the final exam. The form should
be submitted to the Deanship of Student Affairs, provided the
following conditions are met:
A. The application for re-grading must be submitted within a period
not exceeding 15 days from the date from the approval of the final
result according to the specified form.
B. The student must not have previously submitted two requests for
re-grading final exams for courses they had previously studied at
the university, where it was determined that the initial grading
was correct or resulted in no change of grades.
2. If the student fulfills these conditions, the Deanship of Student
Affairs (within two working days) transfers the application to the
College Dean responsible for teaching the course, who will then
transfer it to the Chair of the relevant department, according to the
following rules:
A. The Department Chair must ensure the grading is precise and that
grades are accurately recorded. If it is determined that the grades
were recorded inaccurately, the grade must be modified, and it
will not be counted towards the number of re-grading requests.
B. If the grades are recorded correctly, and the student is still
dissatisfied with the grade, the Department Chair will ask the
course instructor for the student’s final exam sheet and the
answer sheet. Then, the Department Chair will present them to
the student for comparison. If the student is convinced of the
