The grades of each activity will be published on the Virtual Campus and queries or rectifications can be made up to 10 days after their publication. After this period, the grade cannot be modified.
Any written work that has five spelling errors and/or barbarisms (adding 5 errors in total) will get a zero mark. Any job with a plagiarism percentage that exceeds the usual rules of the authors' rights will also obtain a zero mark.

The student who makes any irregularity (copying, plagiarism, identity theft...) that may lead to a significant variation in the mark of an assessment act, will be rated 0 in this assessment act. In the event of several irregularities, the final grade for the course will be 0.
