Student Rights AdvisorBased on KU academic regulations
My professor deducted marks but didn't explain why. What can I do?
You have the right to request a grade review. Under KU academic regulations, you can formally ask your professor for written feedback within 7 days of receiving your grade. If you're not satisfied, you can escalate to the department head. I can walk you through each step.
I missed an exam due to illness. Can I sit a makeup?
Yes - you can apply for a makeup exam. You'll need a medical certificate from a recognized clinic, submitted to academic affairs within 3 working days of the missed exam. Would you like help drafting your request?
