Administrative Appeals Process
The Administrative Appeals Committee reviews written appeals by students in regards to residency status, fee refunds or assessments, calendar deadlines, and other relevant student-administrative issues. Appeals must be submitted within two years from the end of the term that is in question. (For example, if a student wishes to appeal an issue from fall 2006, the student has until the end of fall 2008 to submit an appeal for review.)
The committee meets once a month to
review and act upon submitted appeals. Upcoming meetings, and the
corresponding deadline for submitting appeal documentation, are scheduled as follows
(all dates are subject to change):
April 30
May 7
June 4

All appeals should be written
(preferably typed) and signed by the student. Appeals written by anyone
but the student will NOT be accepted.
The committee is comprised of
University representatives who sincerely
want to consider your appeal. Appeals should be regarded as a
professional communication between the student and the committee.
The student must write a detailed narrative describing why they
feel an exception to a University policy should be made. Explain
specifically what you are asking for and why you believe your situation
should be considered by the committee. Your appeal must include
the following:
your full name
USI student
ID number
mailing address and phone number
email address (if applicable)
all relevant information pertaining to your particular appeal
any supporting
documentation (i.e. doctor's statement, copy of withdrawal form, statement
from instructor/advisor, etc.)
DON'T FORGET TO SIGN YOUR APPEAL!
Insufficient
information will result in a delay of a committee decision. Appeals should be
sent to: Administrative Appeals Committee or fax to: If you have questions about the
appeals process or your appeal status, please call the Office of Student
Affairs, 812/464-1757.
