Our goal is always to make the Leaves and Withdrawal process as seamless as possible for the student. However, if after we have fully processed your Leave or Withdrawal request, you feel the outcome does not align with Emerson’s stated Leave and Withdrawal Policy, you are welcome to submit a written appeal.
All written appeals must be completed and sent by the student. This letter should detail the circumstances being appealed, a full explanation of any extenuating circumstances, and any supporting documentation for the student’s claim.
Students can send their written appeal to registrar [at] emerson.edu (registrar[at]emerson[dot]edu). Once received, it will be shared with the Appeals Board who will investigate the claim, review supporting documentation, and make a determination.
The Appeals Board’s decision is considered final. Because there is no way to appeal this decision, it is vital that a student’s written appeal is complete when sent. For this reason, there is no set deadline to submit an appeal.
