In the event of a grievance regarding an academic issue, a student must initiate the process. This action is required to facilitate bringing the grievance to the person against whom it is being made against (i.e., a faculty member). Academic grievances may be submitted in writing and shared via email (i.e., an email sent to the faculty member); captured on a “Speak Out Smithite” form; or, through the JCSU Web Portal. Unlike the previously discussed grievance procedures, which are centralized and operate under the auspices of the Dean of Students, the academic grievance process is decentralized. The university’s colleges/schools, within the Division of Academic Affairs, handle, manage and maintain correspondence records, logs and resolutions related to academic grievances. If by chance, an academic grievance is received by the university’s Dean of Students, via deanofstudents@jcsu.edu it is then redirected to the appropriate academic unit.

The Johnson C. Smith University (JCSU) Student Grievance Policy provides students a forum to express grievances (or concerns) related to issues involving students, faculty, staff and/or other members of the JCSU constituent community. For grievances that do not involve harassment, sexual violence, assault, and/or discrimination, a student should put his or her concerns in writing and submit them to the Dean of Students, via email deanofstudents@jcsu.edu.

Before initiating the withdrawal process, you should consult with your advisor to discuss the reason(s) for the withdrawal and develop a plan for degree completion.
