Student Concern Process - Where to go for help with Student Concerns

Academic Concern Process

SCSU’s mission is to provide a quality academic experience. The vast majority of students have a quality academic experience. When there are problems we have specific processes to respect the rights and responsibilities of faculty and students.

Academic concerns are either handled at department/college level or the SCSU Undergraduate College.

Department or College: Sometimes there are problems with class schedules, the integrity of the courses and programs available for students. For these issues your faculty member is the best resource. If they are unable to help another resource is the Student Services Coordinator for the appropriate college or school. For formal complaints and grade appeals you can speak to department chairs, Student Services Coordinators.

SCSU Undergraduate College: Students in need of advising or with concerns about Academic Warnings and Suspensions should contact the Associate Provost for Student Support. You can file appeals, seek advising, and find the Online Student Handbook there as well.
