In exceptional cases, a request for readmission may be initially heard by the Student Affairs Committee.

If a teacher candidate wishes to appeal the decision of the ISA Director, they can make a request for an in-person appeal for readmission to Faculty of Education Student Affairs Committee (SAC)

Please note that any appeal will not be considered without complete documentation at the time of the request.

Any requests to add supplemental material not included in the original request will be considered up to 14 days before the SAC meeting date. SAC meetings are scheduled twice in the fall term, twice in the Winter term and once in the summer term.
