Grade Contesting and Academic Appeals for Recruitment
Thank you for your interest in joining the Fraternity and Sorority Community at Miami. The description below outlines the process for students who have not met academic requirements but are currently contesting/appealing a grade or anticipating a grade change after completion of a Winter Term course. Please be aware that the Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council, in partnership with the Cliff Alexander Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life, will evaluate grade contesters/appeals on a case by case basis. We will work with students and faculty members through this process. Students will not be allowed to begin the recruitment process if we do not have confirmation from faculty that they are working on the grade being contested by the deadlines listed below. It is the student’s responsibility to make sure all faculty confirmations are received before the deadlines below. Grade change correspondence received after the deadlines will not be considered.
Grade Contesting/Appeals for Sorority Recruitment:
Send all communication to Alyssa Ciango, ciangoak@miamioh.edu.
Grade Contesting Faculty Confirmations must be received in order to be allowed to be approved to begin the recruitment process. Please have your faculty member send a note to Alyssa saying they have received your appeal for a grade change.
Grade changes and credit hours must be processed in the registrar's system to be allowed to participate in the third round, preference night, and complete the sorority recruitment process. Grade and credit hour contesters will be confirmed through the Office of the Registrar and students not eligible will be notified by the Panhellenic Association.
- Note: The same process will be used for Winter Term grades. Please let us know you are expecting a Winter Term grade and we will put you on a pending eligibility list. Winter Term grades must clear the registrar system before the date referenced above.
