Review Process

After a petition is submitted, the Academic Standards Office refers the petition to people who may have important information to contribute to the appeal.

Some examples of the faculty and staff we will reach out to

Instructors (to verify your class attendance and/or syllabus information)
Student Accounts Office (to comment on the financial impact of your request)
Admissions Office (to comment on transfer credits)
Registrar's Office (to verify attempted registration activity in Banner)
Instructional Resources (to comment on BlackBoard access and activity)

After the referrals and comments are gathered, your petition is submitted to the Academic Appeals Committee for review.

The Academic Appeals Committee is made up of:

the Associate Deans of the college
a representative from Admissions
a representative from Student Accounts
a representative from Financial Aid
a representative from the Registrar's Office
and the Director for Academic Standards.

The committee's decision is final.
