Online Student Concern Process

If you have concerns or complaints regarding your e-Learning course, please follow the Student Concerns/Academic Appeal process described in the college catalog. Forms are available at Student Concern Process.

Students residing outside of Washington State and enrolled in distance education courses may submit a complaint with the Washington Student Achievement Council after exhausting the institution’s complaint resolution process. The Washington Student Achievement Council (WSAC) has authority to investigate student complaints against specific schools. WSAC may not be able to investigate every student complaint.
