We recommend you first contact your instructor and work with them to try to resolve the issue. If you have taken this step, but do not feel the issue has been resolved or you feel that you are being treated unfairly, contact the Department Chair of the department that oversees the course. If you need assistance identifying the Department Chair, contact the Undergraduate Academic Advising office at 330-672-2872.

If you still feel that your situation has not been resolved after making the best effort to resolve the issue through the department, contact your academic advisor to discuss your options or call 330-672-2872 to request to connect with the Ambassador Crawford College Advocacy Office. You could also contact the Office of the Student Ombuds, which provide students assistance with consultations related to possible solutions for university-related concerns.
