What is an Appeal?
An appeal is a procedure which allows you in certain circumstances to ask for a review of an academic or disciplinary decision. Information regarding Academic and Disciplinary Appeals is available under Section 7 of the UCN Academic Calendar.
What Can you Appeal?
Students have the right in specific circumstances to appeal university college decisions made in respect to:
- Assessment of skill demonstrations and/or clinical, practical, or work experiences
- Grades on individual assignments, tests and examinations
- Final grades
- Decisions related to disciplinary action
- Students wishing to proceed with an appeal, should consult with their Academic Advisor right away as the process is time-sensitive.
Appeal Forms
The Student Counsellor and/or Accessibility Resource Officer can also provide support and assistance during the appeals process.
