Formal Appeals Process
What recourse is available to a student who feels the needs for accommodation are not being met?
- The student should immediately discuss any concerns with the Dean of Undergraduate Studies. If the student does not feel that the issue has been resolved and chooses to pursue the concern, the student must submit the complaint in writing to the Dean of Undergraduate Studies. This should be done as soon as possible, but must be done within 30 days of the refusal of an accommodation or failure to resolve the concern. A meeting with the student will be scheduled.
- If the question cannot be satisfactorily resolved and the student chooses to continue to pursue the concern, the student must submit a written request for a formal hearing to the Chairperson of the Disabilities Appeals Committee.
- Following the hearing, the Disabilities Appeals Committee will forward a written report to the Dean of Undergraduate Studies for final approval
- The Dean of Undergraduate Studies will notify the student in writing of the College's final decision.
