Academic Policies & Procedures

All students shall abide by the Manhattan University Community Standards and Student Code of Conduct which can be found at http://manhattan.edu/community-standards-and-student-code-conduct .

For crimes of violence, including, but not limited to sexual violence, or crimes that meet the reporting requirements pursuant to the federal Clery Act, Manhattan University shall make a notation on the transcript of students found responsible through a judicial process pursuant to the Student Code of Conduct. It will be noted that they were "suspended after a finding of responsibility for a Code of Conduct violation" or "expelled after a finding of responsibility for a code of conduct violation." For the student who withdraws from the University while such conduct charges are pending, and declines to complete the disciplinary process, institutions shall make a notation on the transcript of such students that they "withdrew with conduct charges pending." Appeals seeking removal of a transcript notation for suspension can be directed to the Dean of Students and will be heard, provided that such notation will not be removed prior to one year after the conclusion of the suspension. Notations for expulsion will not be removed. If a finding of responsibility is vacated for any reason, any such transcript notation shall be removed.
