Updated September 2025
As of September 15, revisions to Graduate School Policy 3.8 are in effect. Graduate students will now be included in their school, college or campus’s existing academic grievance processes (previously serving only undergraduate and professional students). For most units, this requires only minor adjustments. The key change: graduate student appeals now go to the Dean of the Graduate School rather than the Provost. Please review your local process to ensure alignment and consult available best practices and examples as you prepare for implementation this academic year.
