If a student is disciplined or discharged from a department, the student has the right to appeal in accordance with the following procedure:

1. The student makes a written appeal to the Administrative Head of the employing department. The department head holds a meeting within three working days to discuss the appeal.
2. The student makes a written appeal to the OSFAS. The appropriate Student Financial Aid Administrator holds a meeting within three working days to discuss the appeal.
3. The student makes a written appeal to the Student Employment Appeals Committee. The Committee holds a meeting within three working days and makes a recommendation to the Vice-President for Administration (or his/her designee) within three working days after hearing the appeal.

Every effort should be made to resolve the problem at each step of the appeal process.
