Grievance Policy
It is essential to the operation of the Business School and the success of the students
Attending that students’ concerns or complaints (unrelated to appealing an academic decision addressed elsewhere in the catalog or disciplinary action as provided for directly above) be resolved quickly and fairly.

If a satisfactory solution is not reached, the student may put the complaint in a written form and request that the Academic Committee review their concern. The Academic Committee will then confer with the appropriate personnel and decide on resolving the matter.
If a student’s complaint or grievance is not resolved by the persons designated above, a student may choose to seek a resolution by bringing it to the attention of the Commission for Independent Education, 325 West Gaines Street, Suite 1414, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0400 Toll-Free Phone: 888-224-6684
