Summer
Term registration policies and procedures are outlined in
the printed Schedule and on the website (here).
It is the student's responsibility to familiarize themselves
with these policies. Failure to do so is not a basis for filing
an appeal. Change of instructor, change in financial aid status,
change of work schedule, or first time attendance during Summer
Term is also not grounds for appeal.
Appeals
are for requesting relief or waiver from a UNLV Summer Term
policy. All information requested on the appeal
form must be filled out completely and legibly.
It is your responsibility to provide a clear and concise statement
of your request and to provide all relevant documentation
you wish the committee to review.
Each appeal
is reviewed individually and the decision will be based on
the merits of the appeal and the documentation provided to
the committee. Your appeal will not be heard by the committee
until all the requested documentation has been received. It
is your responsibility to ensure your appeal and all requested
documents are received by the Summer Term Office.
Examples
of documentation required are as follows. This list is not
inclusive; additional documentation may be required for other
circumstances.
1. Death
of immediate family member – death certificate of family
member as defined per the Nevada Administrative Code NAC 284.5235
“Immediate family” means: parents, spouse, children,
brothers, sisters, grandparents, great-grandparents, uncles,
aunts, nephews, grandchildren, nieces, great-grandchildren,
and stepparents.
2. Medical – appropriate medical documentation on professional
letterhead with dates of medical care
3. Military orders – change of duty station pursuant
to military orders
4. Administrative – letter from instructor or department
staff on UNLV letterhead, or email directly to the Summer
Term Office (summerterm@unlv.edu) supporting student appeal
5. Other documentation appropriate to extenuating circumstances
outlined in appeal
The appeal
process usually takes a minimum of 10 business days after
the completed appeal and all documentation are received. At
the peak of Summer Term the process could take longer. Make
a copy of your appeal and documentation for your records.
All documentation shall remain the property of UNLV Summer
Term. You will be notified regarding a decision by letter
at the mailing address provided on your appeal.
