Important Departmental &聽University Policies

This page contains聽policies for courses and programs offered by the Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology.聽 Review this information carefully and speak with your course instructor, the ACB Undergraduate Program Advisor or your Science advisor at SOUSA聽if you have any questions.

Departmental Grading Policy

The Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology will NOT revise/upgrade marks except on sound academic grounds. Once computed, the marks in a course will NOT be altered/increased arbitrarily. Decimal points will be 鈥渞ounded off鈥� as follows: if the final aggregate mark is computed to be 79.5%, the mark will be reported as 80% (an A-); a final aggregate mark of 79.4% will be reported as 79% (a B+). These marks are FINAL and non-negotiable.
Departmental Midterm Exam/In-Course Assessment Deferral Policy

A midterm exam or other in-course assessment (i.e. quiz, assignment, paper, etc.) in a course administered by the Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology聽may only be deferred in the case of a justified absence due to serious illness or significant extenuating circumstances AND when valid documentation1 is received by the Course Coordinator within FIVE working days of the original midterm exam or due date.

If the deferral request is accepted by the Course Coordinator, students may be offered one or both of the accommodations below, depending on the grading structure of the course:

a) Add the weight of the midterm exam/in-course assessment to the final exam or another course component
b) Write a deferred midterm exam/submit a deferred assessment which will be scheduled/due within 10 days of the original midterm exam/due date2

1. Valid documentation includes:

  • A medical note, dated and signed by a licensed healthcare professional clearly indicating: the name of the student, the date that the student was seen, the date(s) that they were unable to attend school/complete a midterm exam/submit an in-course assessment due to illness which must include the original midterm exam or due date.
  • Documentation regarding serious extenuating circumstances such as an obituary or other relevant notice/letter
  • A fully completed and signed PDF icon Student Self-Declaration Form聽(to be used only when no other supporting documentation is available and only for courses administered by the Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology)

2. This option is only required in cases where adding the weight of the midterm/assessment to the final exam would make the final written exam worth more than 75% (Article 7.6, Policy on Assessment of Student Learning)

Please note:

  • Students who have already written a midterm or submitted an in-course assessment may NOT request a deferral (Article聽7.3, Policy on聽Assessment of Student Learning)
  • In cases of incidental illness (e.g., a cold, headache, nausea, etc.) which affects a student鈥檚 study time but where the student was recovered on the day of the assessment, a deferral will NOT be granted.
Departmental Policy on Deferred Final Lab Exams聽(Applies to ANAT 214, ANAT 261, ANAT 314, ANAT 315, ANAT 316 and ANAT 514)

Requests to defer a final LAB exam for an ANAT course scheduled during the final exam period must be made directly to the Course Coordinator using the request form found on the departmental website: .

Important note:聽Requests to defer a final WRITTEN exam must be made using the deferred exam application in Minerva: .

Students registered with Student Accessibility & Achievement (formerly OSD) may request to complete a deferred lab exam with Student Accessibility & Achievement in accordance with the deadlines and procedures set out by that office, as per the Departmental policy on accommodations for anatomy lab exams.

  • All deferred anatomy lab exams will be delivered in the same format as the original lab exam.
  • Timing of deferred final lab exams:
    • Fall semester classes: Date to be set within the Winter Add/Drop period, in consultation with students.
    • Winter semester classes: Date to be set during the first week of May, in consultation with students.
Departmental Policy on Requests for Substitute Biologically-Oriented Courses (Effective Fall 2020)
  • All Biologically-Oriented Course (BOC) substitutions must be approved in advance. Retroactive requests聽will NOT聽be considered.
  • A maximum of 6 credits of program courses can come from approved course substitutions.
  • Requests will only be considered for 400 and 500-level courses which are biologically-oriented, offered by the Faculty of Science,聽and related to the Anatomy & Cell Biology program.
  • Requests must include the reason why the student thinks the course is an appropriate substitute and an explanation of how this course will fit within the student鈥檚 program/career goals (i.e. related to their ANAT 432 project, related to course X and Y which they are also taking, prerequisite for a graduate/professional program, allows the student to learn a specific skill or topic not available within the BOCs, etc.).
  • Send requests by email to undergradadvisor.acb [at] mcgill.ca, include the most recent syllabus for the requested course,聽and allow at least a week for the request to be reviewed and answered (i.e. don鈥檛 wait until the last day of the Add/Drop period to make a request, as it may not be possible to review it in time).

Please note:

  • No substitute course requests are accepted for Advanced Anatomy Courses (AAC), only those courses on the approved AAC list聽will count towards the Anatomy & Cell Biology program requirements.
  • Students in the ACB Liberal program can count any of the courses on the BOC (and AAC) lists for the ACB Major and Honours programs without needing special approval.

University Policy on Reassessments and Rereads

Final Examinations: Reassessments and Rereads

In accordance with the Charter of Students鈥� Rights, and subject to its stated conditions, students have the right to consult any assessment task, including oral assessment tasks that are recorded, for which a grade has been received and the right to discuss the submission with the Examiner. Students should refer to the Policy on Assessment of Student Learning (PASL) for details.

Rereads

Rereads of examinations involves an impartial review by a qualified third party. Reviewers assess the appropriateness of the original grade based, for example, on the application of the grading key to the student鈥檚 work. If a third-party reviewer deems the original grade to be inappropriate, the grade will be revised up or down accordingly. The reviewer鈥檚 grade overrides the original grade.

Taken from Programs, Courses and University Regulations 2024-2025 (last updated Aug. 21, 2024).

Reassessments and Rereads: Faculties of Arts and Science (including B.A .& Sc.)

There are two recognized types of impartial reviews: reassessments and rereads:

  • reassessment of coursework completed during the term (term papers, mid-terms, assignments, quizzes, etc.)
  • reread of a final exam

In both cases, rather than correct and grade the work again, reviewers assess the appropriateness of the original grade based, for example, on the application of the grading key to the student's work. If a grade is deemed unfair, it is changed, whether the new grade is higher or lower than the original, i.e., the reviewer's grade takes precedence over the original grade.

Reassessment of Coursework

These reassessments are administered and conducted solely by the units involved according to procedures specified by the units and made available to staff and students. Requests for such reassessments must be made within 10 working days after the graded material(s) has been made available for students to view. Reassessments should normally be completed within 20 working days of the request.

Rereads of Final Examinations

Deadlines to request final exam rereads:

  • March 31 for courses in the Fall term
  • September 30 for courses in the Winter and Summer terms

Exam reread fees apply; refer to the Student Accounts website for fee amounts and information.

For students pursuing a Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, or Bachelor of Arts & Science:

  • Requests for a final exam reread must be made via Service Point;
  • It is strongly recommended, but not required, that you consult with the instructor of the course before requesting a reread of a final exam.

Students from outsside the Faculties of Arts or Science taking a course administered by them must submit final exam reread requests directly to the Student Affairs Office of their Faculty for Approval.

Reassessments and rereads in courses not in the Faculties of Arts and Science are subject to the deadlines, rules, and regulations of their relevant faculties.

University Student Assessment Policy

University Student Assessment Policy

The University Student Assessment Policy includes all disparate policies with regard to all types of student assessments. This policy is meant to protect students from excessive workloads, and to ensure that all students are treated equally.

This policy applies to undergraduate and graduate courses offered by the University that are evaluated by any form of assessment. Except where otherwise indicated, this policy applies to all faculties, including those which administer their own examinations.

You can consult the policy on the Secretariat website.
