153.7 Academic Appeals and Grievances

A student wishing to appeal an academic decision within this Faculty must first attempt to resolve the issue with the instructor concerned (if applicable) and, if this is not satisfactory, with the Associate Dean (Undergraduate Programs). If there is still no satisfactory resolution of the issue, the student may then appeal to the Faculty's Undergraduate Student Academic Appeals Committee by submitting an appeal in writing to the Chair of the Undergraduate Student Academic Appeals Committee within 14 calendar days of notification of the decision to be appealed. Delivery of notification is deemed to have been effected on the date of pick up, personal receipt of hand or courier delivery, or seven calendar days following regular or registered mail. Further details of the Faculty's appeal procedure are available from the Office of the Associate Dean (Undergraduate Programs). Certain decisions of this Faculty Undergraduate Student Academic Appeals Committee may be appealed to the Academic Appeal Committee of General Faculties Council. For further information, contact the secretary of General Faculties Council. See §23.8.
