Judgment of Academic Infraction

- Students may submit written statements up to 3 days before the committee convenes
- Sanctions depend on severity and may range from failing grades to expulsion
- A grade of “F” for dishonesty cannot be replaced by a course withdrawal
- If repeated, academic dishonesty results in automatic expulsion

Depending on the offense, STU may impose:
- Verbal warnings
- Academic suspension
- Expulsion from the program or University

Disciplinary Appeals
Students may appeal disciplinary actions in writing to the President within 15 days of the decision.
