Student Handbook - Chamberlain

Step 4:
The campus president, program dean or designee reviews the Grievance Committee’s
recommendation and supporting rationale and makes a decision. The student is informed
of the decision within five business days of the Grievance Committee meeting. The decision
of the campus president is final and the action to be taken is implemented immediately.
During the grievance process, the student retains full student status. However, if an issue
of client or student safety is involved, the College retains the right to remove the student
from the clinical experience or college-controlled housing.
Students not satisfied with the final disposition of the grievance process may contact
the campus or program leadership, state licensing authority, the College’s accreditors,
or the state attorney general. A complete listing of contact information for state
licensing authorities and the state attorney general offices is located at
chamberlain.edu/studentconsumerinfo.
Disability Accommodations in Academic Programs
Chamberlain is committed to maintaining an academic environment free of discrimination
and complies with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990.
Any student or applicant with a disability who requests academic adjustments, auxiliary
aids or accommodations under Section 504 should visit the student services advisor to begin
the accommodation process. The applicant/student will be given a special accommodation
request form to complete and submit to the student services advisor along with supporting
medical, psychological or educational assessments.
Once the academic adjustment or auxiliary aid has been approved, the student will be
notified of the accommodation approval. Campus and online instructions for obtaining
approved accommodations may vary. Refer to approval letter for instructions. Should
a student need additional accommodations, requests must be submitted in writing
to the student services advisor. Should a student experience difficulty in obtaining
accommodations, the student must notify the student services advisor for assistance
in rectifying the situation.
