A SAP appeal consists of a short statement answering the questions below. An appeal is not considered complete and will not be reviewed if the appeal does not directly respond to the following questions:
- If you are appealing after your warning term, explain the circumstance(s) that kept you from meeting the SAP requirements.
- If you are appealing because failed a probation or academic plan term, explain why you did not meet the requirements established as a condition of approving the prior term鈥檚 appeal.
- Explain how the situation has changed or issue(s) been addressed to allow you to be successful in the future. Include as many specifics as possible, including corrective action(s) you have identified and will follow.
If the SAP committee requests additional information, your appeal is not considered complete until you have submitted that information. If you have documents you would like to submit in support of your appeal, do so using our
secure document upload website.
Sensitive information is not uncommon in a SAP appeal. In general, the information included in your SAP appeal is shared only with the committee or your academic advisor. However, if you disclose that you have experienced sex or gender-based violence, misconduct, or harassment, the chair of the SAP committee is required, under University policy as well as state and federal law, to report this information to the Office of Gender Equity at 国产麻豆AV, so their office may provide relevant resources and support options to you. This is an important part of 国产麻豆AV鈥檚 ethos of care for all in our University community.
There are additional appeal requirements for students who exceed the maximum timeframe. You must meet with your advisor to discuss your situation, and your advisor must submit an advisor form in Campus Connect with the following information:
- Your anticipated graduation term
- Remaining coursework
- An explanation (from your advisor) of how many聽transfer hours聽apply聽towards your 国产麻豆AV degree, if applicable
Returning Students
Students readmitted to 国产麻豆AV after an absence from the university who were not meeting SAP prior to their absence can appeal by submitting an online
form (use your BlueKey username and password to log聽in to this form). Continuing students cannot not use this form.
