Remarks:
- Results may be displayed as a pass or fail under certain circumstances.
- Grades may be awarded after consideration of submitted reports, attendance rates and course completion in addition to exam results under certain circumstances.
- The AA grade has been awarded to students with excellent results who were admitted after 2004. Hence grade AA is included in A for students who have admitted before that.
2. The syllabus will contain subjectwise course objectives (objectives for award of grades) and details on award of results. As a rule, grades will be awarded according to the achievement level of the objectives set for each subject.
3. Lecturers in charge should retain exam scripts and reports submitted by students for up to one year from the date of the exam and one year from the date of submission, respectively, for use in grading and for use in case a student wishes to disclose their results.
However this does not apply to cases in which lecturers return exam scripts to students with a grade or comments. In the case of an exam script, it is desirable to keep the original and return a copy of the script to the student.
(For reference: standard of document storage duration of Tohoku University: Exam scripts and reports for one year)
4. Students may request for an explanation of their examination results from the lecturer in charge within 2 weeks of the date of the examination.
However, in circumstances where the student has a valid reason, they may be able to request for an explanation within the one year storage period of their results.
5. Students who have received an explanation of their results and who wish to appeal their results may report this to the head of the Academic Affairs committee.
6. If there is an appeal, a meeting will be set up with the majority of the Academic Affairs committee in attendance, in order to discuss the appeal.
