Appeal Procedures Not Involving Suspension/Expulsion

Steps for filing an appeal in cases not involving suspension/expulsion are outlined below:

Written notification of the decision to appeal and the grounds for the appeal (see 2b below) must be received by the Student Conduct Officer within two University business days after the original decision is communicated to the adjudicated student. The Student Conduct Officer will convene an Appeals Panel comprised of Student Conduct Board members who were not involved with the original hearing.

Appeal proceedings will begin within five (5) University business days of the receipt of the written notification from the student. The Student Conduct Officer will be responsible for notifying the adjudicated student of the outcome of the appeal within two University business days of the conclusion of the appeal proceedings. This is the final appeal at the institutional level.
