Appeals

Students who have concerns about decisions made by Accessible Learning staff regarding their academic accommodations or bursary applications are encouraged to begin by speaking directly with staff member involved or their manager. Most concerns are resolved effectively through these informal conversations.

Accessible Learning is required by the Ontario Human Rights Commission to maintain a formal process by which students can appeal our decisions related to academic accommodations and bursary applications. If a concern is not resolved informally, students may initiate the formal processes outlined below.
