Student Appeal Application

Student Appeal Application

A Student may appeal a decision made in response to final grades, academic misconduct, misconduct in the learning environment, academic probation or suspension on one or more of the following grounds:

1. there is evidence available that was not considered in the decision and that may have otherwise affected the decision being appealed; or
2. the decision being appealed was made in a procedurally unfair way; or
3. the appropriate process, as outlined in the Academic Calendars, was not followed; or
4. the decision contained an error in the application of the relevant Academic Regulations.

In general, Final Grade decisions and decisions regarding Academic Misconduct, or Misconduct in the Learning Environment, or Academic Progression Matters should be made as close as possible to the level at which the academic competence resides.

Dissatisfaction with a decision or with a University, Faculty or School policy, procedure, regulation, or standard is not a Ground of Appeal.

In general, events or academic performance that occur after the date of the decision being appealed are not considered to be relevant new information.

A Student must exhaust all decision making and appeal processes at each level before submitting an appeal to the Academic Appeals Committee.
