Students may appeal their probation or disqualification by petitioning the Academic Standards Review Committee. The student should begin the appeal process by consulting with the graduate advisor. The advisor should report the meeting and make a recommendation to the Committee. The appeal should contain an explanation of extenuating circumstances that led to the action. The student must present documentation, for example, physician's letters, police reports, and/or transcripts, that the circumstances were beyond his or her control, that they disrupted previously satisfactory scholastic performance, and that they no longer affect the student's academic work. For disqualifications, a Petition for Reinstatement is required.
The Admissions and Standards Committee will in turn make a recommendation to the Associate Vice President of Graduate Studies & Research to confirm or rescind the probation or disqualification.
