appeals


  1. A process for appealing a COE score should be in place by December 2009. 

  2. Appeals are only allowed if the COE score is within the augmentation range (see “Augmentation” to the right). 

  3. Students cannot appeal if they are augmenting a collection.  They can appeal or augment, but not both.

  4. An appealed COE will be scored during the next submission window.

  5. Appeals are only COE score appeals.  They are not intended to appeal graduation decisions.
