220.4 Appeals
Procedures exist to enable Open Studies students to appeal certain decisions regarding academic and nonacademic matters. Formal appeals are often avoidable and students are therefore encouraged, in the first instance, to seek advice from the Assistant Registrar, Records, Registration and Fees.
Grade Appeals: Students who wish to appeal a ruling relating to a grade, examination result or standing in a particular course should consult the appeals policy of the Faculty offering the course. | |
Discipline Offences: Students who wish to appeal a discipline offence ruling (plagiarism, cheating, etc.) should follow the procedures stated in the Code of Student Behavior (see §25). | |
Academic Standing: Open Studies students who wish to appeal a decision affecting their academic standing as described in §220.3 should direct their appeal in the first instance to the Associate Registrar, Records, Registration and Fees. Copies of the Open Studies academic appeal procedures and regulations are available from the Office of the Registrar. |
See also §23.8 for a discussion of General Faculties Council policies regarding appeals and grievances.
