How long do teachers have to grade a final paper? (TESC)

[dcan]

Dcan,

I was told the general rule was Mentors had until the 4th of the month following semester to post final grades to the school. My experience was some posted final/course grade right away others closer to the time they were posting the grade to the school. I think it depends on the mentors workload - remember some not only mentor at TESC but actually teach at other colleges. Some have multiple courses with a full class, while some may have only one class each semester with 1-5 students.

You can always email about a week later to request your grade but I have found it's best to just be patient. And more important to not look at TESC as a traditional college, there is a lot more flexibility or frankly we would have chosen a different school.

The listed 4.0 GPA is obviously just a software placeholder since you do not have an actual grade yet. The software does seem to be a bit hinky lately, if you need definitive answers call advising or the registrars office.

Dang, I literally just hit "send" on an e-mail to her right before I checked in here. Oh well, worst case is she can tell me to wait, and I told her that is fine, I just wasn't aware of the policy for final grades. I'm more than willing to wait as long as I know what the rule is. If it's in the student guide somewhere then that is bad on me for not reading it thoroughly enough.
