Petitions of Academic Policies

Students who feel that they have serious extenuating circumstances may submit a Student Petition of Academic Policy (SPAP). Submitting a petition does not guarantee that a particular policy will be waived since petitions are considered exceptions and are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Documentation of the circumstances related to the request MUST accompany the petition for the case to be considered. Petitions submitted without relevant supporting documentation will be denied without consideration. Final decision on all petitions rests with the Student Petition of Academic Policy (SPAP) Committee.

Student Petitions of Academic Policies (SPAPs) must be submitted via myWings. For more information about the appeal process, refer to the Student Petition of Academic Policy webpage.

For items that cannot be petitioned, please refer to Petitioning University Policies and Regulations.
