Academic Appeals

Our office works with the Undergraduate Council to assist in the administration of the Appeals Committee. The Appeals Committee serves as a standing sub-committee of the Undergraduate Council and reviews appeals for academic dismissals, grade appeals that have gone through a College Dean's office, late drop appeals for individual courses, and applications for readmission for students dismissed two or more times. Additionally, the Appeals Committee assists students with academic problem resolution.

Comprised of faculty, staff, and students, this committee is charged by the council to represent the highest level of shared governance with authority over most undergraduate academic appellate matters. An opinion rendered by the Appeals Committee is considered to be a fair, thorough, and final decision.
