Attach a 1-2 page statement indicating the basis for the academic appeal and
list the evidence that you will present to support your appeal. Provide a list
of any witnesses you plan to call and any advisor who will attend with their
contact information.
I have read the procedures for academic appeals as outlined in Part 57 of the
Texas A&M University Student Rules. I further understand that this Request
for a Hearing form and all pertinent documentation, including lists of
witnesses and the intention to be represented by an attorney or to have an
advisor present, must be filed within ten (10) university business days of
notification of the dean’s decision of dismissal or suspension or five
(5) university business days before the first day of the long semester (fall
or spring) or immediately following the academic term in which the adverse
decision was made, whichever comes first.
I understand that my failure to appear at the deliberations without
documented, justifiable cause will terminate my right to appeal. I understand
that the burden of proof is upon me. I understand that the dean (or his or her
designee) will be invited to be present during the proceedings. Members of the
Undergraduate Academic Appeals Panel may question me, the department head, the
dean (or his or her designee), and witnesses during the proceedings. A digital
recording of the statements, questions and answers will be made during the
hearing portion of the Undergraduate Academic Appeals Panel proceedings, and I
may request a copy of this recording. I also understand that the Undergraduate
Academic Appeals Panel will make a judgement based on the preponderance of
evidence and that their decision may not be appealed.
