Appeal and Grievance Procedures
Accommodation Appeal Process
Informal Appeal Process
If a University student requests a particular academic accommodation and the request has been denied by an AccessibleNU(ANU) Advisor the student may informally appeal the decision by requesting a review of the determination. The informal appeal will be reviewed by ANU's Associate Directors or a designee. To move forward with an informal appeal regarding accommodation determination, please contact AccessibleNU (e. accessiblenu@northwestern.edu; p. 847-467-5530). Students are required to go through the informal appeal process before proceeding with a formal appeal. The majority of disagreements can be handled at this level and have a shorter response and outcome time.
