Academic Integrity Review Board Decision Appeals

1. The stated procedures were not followed.
2. There exists newly discovered important evidence that has substantial bearing on the determination of the Review Panel.

Reflect on your case, considering any explanations or documentation that support the basis for an appeal.

For assistance in writing your appeal, reach out to the AS Office of Student Advocacy to schedule an appointment.

Once you've identified relevant grounds for an appeal, write your appeal and gather relevant documentation. Your appeal should be clear and help the Appeal Appropriate Administrative Authority (Appeal AAA) to understand why you are appealing and how the grounds apply in your case.

Submit your appeal using the AIRB Decision Appeal Form.

Your appeal will be processed by the AI Office within 2 business days of receipt, and then forwarded to the Appeal AAA for review and consideration. They must review your appeal within 10 business days and notify us of your decision.

During the appeal process, sanctions are on hold until the AIRB Decision appeal is decided. Therefore, there's no need to start AI Training or other sanctions that may have already been assigned.

Attend classes as usual, ensuring you remain current with coursework.

If the appeal is granted, a new Review with new Panel members will be scheduled.

If the appeal is not granted, follow the instructions in the notice received, as there's no ability to submit an AIRB decision appeal a second time.
