How to write a student disciplinary appeal. Tips from an appeal lawyer.

 

What is a student appeal?

A student appeal is the last chance a student has at avoiding sanctions from their college. An appeal asks university staff, usually a dean or provost to look at the situation one last time.

How fast do I have to write and submit my student appeal?

Usually very quick. Every university is different so make sure you check your handbook for the timelines.

What should I write about in my student disciplinary appeal?

That depends on your situation and what categories your university allows you to argue. The categories are typically new information, policy or procedural violations, and harshness of sanction. These limited categories can make appeal writing a challenge. Mr. Asselta writes student appeals using his nearly 20 years as a lawyer combined with specialized knowledge of the student disciplinary process. This gives students an edge.
