Policy and Procedure for Appealing Academic Dismissal from the University

1. If a student wishes to appeal a decision to dismiss, a written letter of appeal must be sent to the Dismissal and Appeals Committee by the dismissed student according to the instructions outlined in the letter of dismissal. Written appeals must include specific reasons and details justifying re-admission consideration. Appeals will be accepted only if they are in writing.
2. The Dismissal and Appeals Committee, which includes faculty representatives from each of the Colleges/School and professional staff from the Academic Services department and SGPCE advising staff, will review the material and render a recommendation to the Provost.
3. The Provost will review the material and recommendation, render a final decision and communicate the decision to the student in writing via certified mail.
