APPENDIX A
A grievance is a student’s claim of unfair and/or non-equitable treatment regarding established policies, procedures, rules, and regulations that affect their progression within the enrolled program of study. The formal expression of a complaint is a grievance. The School of Nursing defines a grievance as a formal allegation against a party or program expressed in a written, signed statement. The student has the right to express grievances without prejudice, penalty, or recrimination.
Students must consult and comply with the academic grade appeal policy located in the KSU Course Catalog. A copy of the Final Course Grade Appeal Form utilized in the appeal process is below.
