I sent one as well a while ago. Hopefully it works, and I don't have to wait that long. Isn't it university policy though that professors cannot release grades prior to them showing up for students on the Degree Audit though?

A lot of profs and students say that, but I recently was looking at the policy regarding grades for another reason, and it says that they cannot post FINAL grades. Technically, they can post your exam mark or whatever...and I'm pretty sure if there's a discrepancy in your grade you can ask to see your exam regardless.

No, as I said before, it's only updated if there are new marks for you. If there are no new marks for you, your grade report isn't updated.

Ah I see, well I'll let my professor knows if he says otherwise. Could you perhaps provide a link with that information though?

These are all the academic-related policies (mostly pdfs, some are actual links):

The one "returning marked work and posting of grades" is the one I was referring to.

I've heard this before. I would not be able to keep a straight face when reading this.
