Correction and Review of Grades, and Change of Examiner

You can request a correction or review of a grade you have received that you consider to be incorrect based on the grading criteria and expected study results. If you receive a grade of Fail, you can request that another examiner grade the next examination.

Correction and Review of Grades

If you want to request a correction or review of a grade, please use this e-form:

Correction and Review of Grades (blankett.du.se)

Submit the form and a copy of the exam or assignment that you wish to have corrected or reviewed. In the form, clearly explain why the grade is incorrect based on the grading criteria and expected study results.

Decisions to change a grade can only be made by the course examiner. The correction and review of grades are matters regulated by Dalarna University’s policy document titled Regler för klagomål, omprövning och överklagan.

Change of Examiner

If you have failed an examination on two occasions and the grades for these have been reported in Ladok, you have the right to request that the next examination be graded by a new examiner. There may be special reasons that mean an examiner cannot grade your examination: for example, no teacher with the right competence in the field of study in question is available.

If the number of examinations is limited in the course syllabus, you may be able to change examiner even after receiving a grade of Fail. It is the Head of School who makes the decision on a change of examiner.
