If your appeal is regarding a grade change in one or more courses that does not involve a late withdrawal or is an extension of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â's incomplete grading policy, please review the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â policy for grade appeals under Enrollment and Academic Records in your .

Please consult your catalog for specific details, but generally, grade appeals follow this process:

1. Grade appeals must first be discussed with the instructor of the course. You must discuss your concerns with your instructor and give them adequate time to consider your request.
2. If you are not satisfied with the resolution, you then appeal next to the academic department chair of the course. For instance, if you are appealing a grade in PSYC 1300, then you would appeal to the department chair of the Department of Psychology. Contact information can be found on the academic department website.
3. If you are dissatisfied with the outcome by the academic department chair, then appeal to the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies related to the course’s academic department. For instance, if the course is MUHI 1300, then the appeal would be to the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies within the Meadows School of the Arts.
4. Your final appeal opportunity, if you are not satisfied with the school or college decision, is you may appeal to the associate provost of Faculty Success. There is no further opportunity for appeal beyond this level.

Any student who wants to request a medical withdrawal should first complete and submit a Caring Community Connections (CCC) submission form and select the “medical withdrawal request” checkbox.

This will initiate the process with the Office of Student Advocacy and Support (OSAS), who is best able to assist you through the medical withdrawal process. There is no opportunity for a retroactive medical withdrawal.

Requests for a late withdrawal (e.g., replacement of a letter grade with a 'W') must first be submitted via a Petition for Enrollment Policy Exception (PEPE) and decided upon by °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â’s Registrar's Office. Students must submit the PEPE and decision notification documents with their CAP Appeal. To do this:

1. Visit the Registrar's office page to more information.
2. Request and/or meet with your school record’s office or academic advisor to submit a PEPE.
3. Await final decision from the Registrar’s Office.
4. If a denial is received, you may submit a CAP appeal. Please attach your original PEPE and final decision rationale provided by the Registrar’s Office in your CAP Appeal submission.

You must have received an email notification from the University Advising Center (pre-majors) or your School Record’s office (declared students) notifying you of your academic suspension or dismissal from °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â.

Please adhere to the timelines and processes associated with appealing the suspension or dismissal as stated in your notification letter from the university.

Students requesting reinstatement must begin the process with the Registrar's office via their website.
Undergraduate students who have been suspended are required to attach a personal statement to their reinstatement application. This personal statement should include:

1. Past circumstances that led to your suspension.
2. Plans upon return. How will things be different?
3. Strategies you will employ to ensure you are successful in achieving your plan.
4. What have you done during your suspension that has prepared you to return to °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â?

Returning students are strongly advised to apply for reactivation or reinstatement at least 60 days prior to the start of the term of re-entry.

A student who petitions for an exception to or waiver of academic policy must first follow any procedure that applies to the particular type of request. Therefore, please consult your University Catalog for policies that apply to your circumstance.

Undergraduates are encouraged to consult their academic advisor or a university official prior to submitting an appeal.
