General Information

Students suspended for the first time will be mailed information regarding academic suspension and appealing from their dean’s office. Questions regarding students suspended for the first time should be directed to the dean.

Second-time (or more) suspended students will be mailed information from Academic Affairs. This information includes instructions for appealing. For your reference, the notification letter, appeal form, and criteria and required documentation information is attached.

Any questions you may have regarding Financial Aid should be directed to that office. Appealing for an academic waiver of the suspension period, and appealing for
