Appeals Process
A student, under various circumstances, can file an appeal to the Committee on Academic Standing.


There are two primary types of appeals:
Academic/Grade Related
Financial Aid Related

The academic related appeals generally deal with dismissal and/or withdrawal after the deadline. The financial related appeals generally pertain to the TAP Waiver, and the Title IV Waiver.


The process for completing an appeal is as follows:

  1. Go to the Registrar's office to pick up the appropriate appeal form for Academic type matters (Bursar's for financial type matters). A staff member there may ask you for more information to determine if you qualify.

  2. Bring the form to the Counseling Center (S-330) to discuss the circumstances. In most cases the counselor will advise you to secure appropriate documentation verifying your situation.

  3. Get the appropriate signatures or documentation and meet with a counselor for a recommendation.

  4. Return the completed appeal to the Registrar's office.

Please note that the appeal process is somewhat lengthy and may take time to approve. Information and documentation that verifies your situation can expedite the process.
