If the issue is not or cannot be resolved after all internal procedures have been exhausted, the student may file a complaint with the state of residence or the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (the college’s primary accrediting agency). This is in compliance with the Federal Department of Education’s State Authorization Regulations.
