5.3.12 Professional Graduate Nursing Student Academic Appeal and Grievance Policy


Purpose

Under the provision in Bylaws of the Board of Regents, UNMC and College of Nursing (CON), students may appeal academic evaluations they believe are prejudiced or capricious. This appendix provides the procedure for these appeals.

Scope

This applies to professional graduate students. The guidelines for appeals of academic evaluations shown below do not pertain to CON PhD students. The appropriate procedures are contained in the Graduate Studies Academic and Grade Appeals Policies and Procedures at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.

Definitions

University Day: The term “University Day” means a weekday on which the campus offices are open. Check the academic calendar on the campus website to determine the days on which the campus offices are closed.

Email Address of Record: The term “Email Address of Record” means the student’s University assigned email address. Because important notices may be sent to students by email, it is extremely important that students make sure they check that email regularly.
