When can a school appeal an eligibility decision, and who decides?

An appeal can be made when the Eligibility Officer denies an eligibility application, a compliance and authorization form, a school declaration, or an international and home study form. The member school may also appeal the ruling on a Change of Residence form (Eligibility Appeals Form, handbook section 944.0).

The Eligibility Appeals Committee hears appeals from member schools. Its decision is final and binding. It meets ten times per school year, each meeting paired with a Tuesday 2 pm submission deadline.
