Student Appeals and Legal Aid

update date : 2022-08-02

A. Student Appeals 

The Student Appeals Committee 學生申訴評議委員會 is established to safeguard the rights and interests of students living and studying at the university so as to create a harmonious campus. A student is entitled to appeal in the following situations:

1. Any individual student or any student organization that disagrees with a school administrative, academic or disciplinary decision on the ground that it violates the rights and interests of students should first seek an administrative resolution to the issue. Any student or student organization that disagrees with the administrative resolution is then entitled to file an appeal with the Student Appeals Committee through the Student Assistance Division.

2. Appeal procedures: Students who receive a letter of notification for a disciplinary resolution are eligible to appeal through a due administrative procedure. Should an administrative resolution fail, the student may proceed to appeal in a written form to the Student Appeals Committee within ten days of being notified of the resolution. The appeals form is available from the download section on the homepage of the Office of Student Affairs.

3. The student appeals system is intended as a remedial measure to review any school decision that may violate the rights and interests of students. Petitions or opinions, which fail to amount to an appeal as defined in this document, should be referred to the relevant offices, and will not be accepted and processed in this system.

4. Complaints of sexual assault or sexual harassment are handled by NCKU Gender Equity Education Committee.  (Undertaken by Counseling and Wellness Services Division)

ACT: National Cheng Kung University Regulations Governing the Establishment and Administration of the Student Appeals Review Committee

 

B. Q&A

1：What are the reasons for filing an appeal?

Students, student unions and other related student government organizations may file a appeal with the Student Appeals Committee, if they believe that the school's disciplinary action (including punishment, other measures or resolutions, hereinafter referred to as disciplinary action) is unlawful or improper, and that it is detrimental to their rights. (Undertaken by Student Assistance Division)

2. Is there a deadline for filing an appeal?

Yes. Students should submit their appeal in writing to the Student Appeals Committee within 10 days from the day they learned of the disciplinary action (by Student Assistance Division); if the applicant exceeds the deadline due to force majeure, he/she may request permission by stating the reason to the Committee.
