Appealing Academic Suspension

Upon academic suspension, a student who wishes to resume his or her studies must first appeal the suspension in writing. The appeal must be received and reviewed prior to the beginning of the term following the student’s suspension. The University Associate Provost and an appeals committee will review the student’s letter of appeal, along with the student’s academic history and overall academic performance. The student’s instructors and academic advisor may provide feedback that contributes to the ultimate approval or denial of the student’s appeal of academic suspension.

Continuously enrolled students whose appeals of academic suspension are granted will resume their studies on probation.

An LCIE student who has discontinued his or her studies for more than one year and who departed the University under academic suspension must appeal his or her suspension before being readmitted. Upon readmission, such students will be subject to the requirements in the catalog in effect at the time of their return.
