STUDENT COMPLAINTS/GRIEVANCE

The School of Nursing and the University recognize that, on occasion, a student may have a concern or issue that necessitates a prompt and fair resolution. To address the issue, the student is to follow the prescribed series of steps (see catalog) to obtain a mutual and satisfactory resolution of the student’s concern or issue.
Reasons for grievance may include:

• A claim of an inappropriate grade that has been assigned by a faculty member
• A miscalculation of a final grade
• A claim of abuse, ill-treatment, or exploitation

The following cases may NOT be grieved: Violations of the Academic Honor code (specifically Academic Integrity and Student Conduct Violations which were considered serious enough to warrant a dismissal from the University.).\

Procedure
The procedure to file an academic complaint/grievance is available in the University Catalog.
