Student Rights and Grievances Policy

Academic Grievances

To help determine if a situation is an academic grievance and to understand the process, nursing students are referred to the Ombuds Office. The Ombuds Office is a confidential and neutral place where students and instructors can receive help weighing their options, understanding relevant policies and available resources, and receiving referrals for more formal measures when circumstances warrant. It is sometimes the case that the issue of concern can be resolved through informal mediation and the Ombuds Office can provide informal mediation services.

The following Grievance Procedure applies to all university undergraduate and graduate degree programs.  

FA 02/19; 9/21/22; 5/17/23; 4/2/25
