- Complaints/Grievance Policy | Vargas University
Out‐of‐State Distance Education students, who have completed the internal institutional grievance process and the applicable state grievance process, may appeal non‐instructional complaints to the FL‐SARA PRDEC Council. Complaints/Grievance Policy Students have the right to file a grievance against the University both verbally and in writing on a number of issues, as stated in the University Catalog. The general procedure is for the student to have an informal discussion with the Student Development coordinator as a first step. Before filing a formal charge, the student should first meet with the faculty member if it is grade/academic issue in an effort to resolve the matter. The student may then file a written complaint to the Vice President of Academic Affairs. Upon receipt of a written formal complaint by a student, the Vice President of Academic Affairs will consider the complaint. The University will conduct an investigation to determine whether the allegation has merit. The Vice-President of Academic Affairs then makes a determination. If a violation of policy, as stated in the Catalog or Faculty Handbook, has occurred, the University will take appropriate steps for remediation toward the parties involved as dictated by the written policy and provisions of the University. The Vice President or his designee (student development coordinator) will formally notify the student of the outcome of the review. This decision is final, but the student has the right to appeal to the Florida Commission on Independent Education or the current accreditor, ACICS. If a student has a complaint or grievance against a university faculty member or employee, the Catalog provides the following information: If any student deems it necessary to file a grievance against a Jose Maria Vargas employee, he or she must report such incident to the Vice-President of Academic Affairs. Every effort will be made to protect the privacy of any parties involved. In cases of discrimination or sexual harassment, JMVU encourages the student to go directly to the Vice-President of Academic Affairs. Any complaint that is not in writing, that is, a verbal complaint, is considered an informal complaint. After an informal discussion, if the student wishes to file a formal grievance, he/she may submit such in writing to the Vice President of Academic Affairs. However, before filing a formal charge, the complaining party should first make a good faith effort to meet and confer with the party against whom he or she has a complaint in an effort to resolve the matter. The formal report should contain a statement of the problem or complaint, the facts and details of the situation, pertinent dates and the names and positions of the parties involved. The grievance must be signed and dated. Also, student may withdraw a complaint at any time during the complaint process. A withdrawal must be made in writing to the Vice President of Academic Affairs. Upon receipt of a written formal complaint by a student, the Vice-President of Academic Affairs will consider the complaint. After such an investigation, the Vice-President of Academic Affairs will make a determination as to whether the grievance has merit as alleged. If the alleged grievance is deemed justified, JMVU will take whatever steps it deems appropriate to correct any grievance suffered by the complaining student. Remedies The student may appeal this determination to an appeals committee consisting of members of the administration, faculty and student body. This committee has the right to review the determinations and to reverse or amend such decisions. Students have the right to appeal a denial for a request for accommodations related to a disability. The student may appeal any decision related to a requested accommodation or auxiliary aid to the Vice President of Academic Affairs. Such an appeal must be made in writing to the Vice President of Academic Affairs not later than ten (10) days following the decision as to a requested accommodation or aid. Any position paper, brief, medical documentation or other written material, which the student desires to be reviewed by the Vice President of Academic Affairs, shall be submitted together with the notice of appeal. The Vice President of Academic Affairs shall investigate and respond to the notice of appeal in writing, stating her decision, together with the reasons for either affirming or reversing the previous decision as to an accommodation or auxiliary aid. Students and faculty who believe that their grievances have not been fully investigated or remedied may contact the Commission for Independent Education at 325 West Gaines Street, Suite 1414, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0400 toll free telephone number 888-224-6684; or the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS), 1350 Eye Street, NW, Suite 560, Washington, D.C. 20005, (202) 336-6780. Process for Filing a Complaint with the Florida Commission for Independent Education To file a complaint against a nonpublic postsecondary institution in Florida, please write a letter or send an e-mail containing the following information: Name of Student (or Complainant) Complainant Address Phone Number Name of Institution Location of the Institution (City) Dates of Attendance A full description of the problem and any other documentation that will support your claim such as enrollment agreements, correspondence, etc. The complaint process of the Commission involves contacting the institution to obtain their response to your complaint. If you do not want the Commission to contact the institution you are attending, you must state so in your complaint; however, doing so will greatly hinder the Commission’s ability to assist you with your complaint. Send Letter To: Commission for Independent Education 325 W.

SARA Complaint Procedure Out‐of‐State Distance Education students, who have completed the internal institutional grievance process and the applicable state grievance process, may appeal non‐instructional complaints to the FL‐SARA PRDEC Council. Students must first go through the institutional complaint procedures. If the student is not satisfied with the outcome, he/she may appeal the complaint to the Council by sending an email to FLSARAinfo@fldoe.org . Complaint Requirements Complaint must be filed within two years of the incident about which the complaint is made. Complete the institutional complaint process prior to submission with the Council. Complaint must be a formal assertion in writing that the terms of SARA, or of laws, standards or regulations incorporated by SARA, are being violated by a person, institution, state, agency or other organization or entity operating under the terms of SARA.

Discover an institution that values diversity and accessibility. Request for Accommodation Jose Maria Vargas University does not discriminate on the basis of disability in the admission or access to, or operations of, its programs or activities. Jose Maria Vargas University does not discriminate on the basis of disability in its hiring or employment practices. This notice is provided as required by Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Accommodations are granted on a case-by-case basis for those students who are eligible by showing sufficient documentation of disability in compliance with all Federal and State Laws. The university currently provides handicap access in its classrooms and facilities. Requests for other accommodations must be made to the Director of Student Development. On occasion, the Director of Student Development may work together with the Vice President of Academic Affairs to resolve requests concerning academic adjustments. With the goal of promoting integration and equality among the student population, the University provides individual assistance to students with documented disabilities. Disclosure of disability is voluntary. Students with disabilities must request adjustments or other accommodations within the first two weeks of each semester, and provide appropriate documentation to the Student Development Department. Documentation received may be questioned if proper credentials are not provided, the person is not treating the student, or if the diagnosis is without supporting data. The University maintains all records as confidential. Upon review of the documentation, Student Development will develop a letter of acknowledgement of the disability and the appropriate accommodations that will be provided to the student. Student Development will contact the student’s professors to notify them of the authorized adjustments. In case the adjustments do not work, the student must notify Student Development in order to ensure timely arrangements. Students that require extra time for testing may take examinations under the supervision of Student Development, in agreement with the course professor. Students should allow two to three weeks for processing of additional aids or educational materials. The University provides these auxiliary aids and services on an individual basis. These aids and services may include, but are not limited to: registration assistance, approval of reduced course load, letters to instructors outlining accommodation needs, note takers, testing accommodations, classroom and other facility accommodations, and assistance with accessibility issues. JMVU will take into account the dates of requests for adjustments in the evaluation of grade appeals. Students should keep in mind that arrangements are provided to aid in the completion of course requirements, not to provide excuses for missing assignments or other coursework. All students may appeal grades. For this process, please refer to Procedure for Grade Appeals. Students with disabilities should notify the Office of Financial Aid, in the case they would like additional costs (due to documented disability) to be taken into account when calculating their overall cost of attendance at the institution.

- Grading Policies | Vargas University
Discover our Grading and Related Policies at Vargas University. Explore our comprehensive grading system and gain insights into how we assess and evaluate academic performance. Learn more about our grading policies and guidelines. Grading and Other Related Policies Grades The following chart sets forth the grading system utilized by the University: Grades “A” through “C-” are considered passing grades. Grades "W" and "I" indicate that no grades were earned for the course. A "W" grade indicates that the student withdrew from the course. An "I" grade indicates that the student was passing the course, but failed to complete all the required course work. The instructor, in his/her discretion may grant an "I" grade instead of an "F", pending completion of the course work by the student within a specified time arranged by the instructor and told to the student. It is the student's responsibility to follow-up with the instructor to complete the course work. If the course work is not completed by the arranged time, the “I” grade becomes an “F". For students receiving transfer credit from other institutions, a grade of “T” will appear on their transcript. Courses for which a “T” is given will not be used in computing the student’s grade point average. A student's grade point average ("GPA") is computed by dividing the sum of all earned quality points earned at the University by the total number of courses for which grades “A” through “F” were received. Courses in which a “W” or “I” or “T” or “P” grade was received will not be used in computing a student's GPA. The “P” grade is only used for the assessment of the Master of Science in Pre-school Education Thesis.

This make-up work policy is granted on a case-by-case basis. Arrangements must be completed within a stated time frame from the end of the course.

- SAP Policy | Vargas University
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP): Achieving Academic Excellence. Satisfactory Academic Progress Students must make satisfactory progress both in terms of cumulative grade point average and the total amount of time taken to complete the required course sequence as outlined by semester in the JMVU College Catalog. To maintain satisfactory progress, the student must: complete their total program in no more than 1.5 times the number of semesters described in this catalog for the program establish and maintain at least a 2.0 GPA by the end of the undergraduate student's second term of enrollment and all subsequent terms. Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 GPA by the end of their second term of enrollment and all subsequent terms. For the purposes of SAP, Medical Assistant Technician, Home Health Aide, ESL, and FCCPC diploma students must meet the same criteria as undergraduate students. (Grades for classes that were transferred from another university are shown as “T” on the transcript and will not be used in computing the student’s grade point average.) Factors that may influence satisfactory progress and that may result in extended time are: deviation from the catalog requirements in the number of hours taken per semester deviation in the course sequence recommended withdrawal from classes repeated courses grades of “Incomplete” changing the major or the program probation or suspension grade appeal process earning more than one degree at a time In calculating Satisfactory Academic Progress, Grades “A” through “C-” are considered passing grades. Grades "W" and "I" indicate that no grades were earned for the course. A "W" grade indicates that the student withdrew from the course. An "I" grade indicates that the student was passing the course, but failed to complete all the required course work. The instructor, in his/her discretion may grant an "I" grade instead of an "F", pending completion of the course work by the student within a specified time arranged by the instructor and told to the student. It is the student's responsibility to follow-up with the instructor to complete the course work. If the course work is not completed by the arranged time, the “I” grade becomes an “F". For students receiving transfer credit from other institutions, a grade of “T” will appear on their transcript. Courses for which a “T” is given will not be used in computing the student’s grade point average. A student's grade point average ("GPA") is computed by dividing the sum of all grade points earned at the University by the total number of courses for which grades “A” through “F” were received. Courses in which a “W” or “I” or “T” or “P” grade was received will not be used in computing a student's GPA. Definition of Satisfactory Academic Progress Each student enrolled at the University must demonstrate that he or she is making satisfactory academic progress toward the completion of his or her chosen program of study. The criteria that each student must meet to qualify as making "Satisfactory Academic Progress" are defined below. A student who is failing to meet this criteria at any point outlined below will not meet the standard of "Satisfactory Academic Progress”. Any of three remedies may be applied if a student is not making Satisfactory Academic Progress. These are as follows: academic probation, restricted class load status and/or termination from the program of study. The definition of Satisfactory Academic Progress has both qualitative and quantitative criteria that must be met. The student must meet both of these sets of criteria to make Satisfactory Academic Progress. Unmet satisfactory academic progress also affects financial aid eligibility. For more information on financial aid warning status due to unmet satisfactory academic progress, please refer to the Financial Aid section of this catalog. Qualitative Criteria for Satisfactory Academic Progress Under the qualitative criteria, to make Satisfactory Academic Progress, the student must comply with the following three criteria: Demonstrate a minimum overall cumulative grade point average of 2.0 at the end of the undergraduate student's second term of enrollment, and at the end of each subsequent term thereafter. Demonstrate a minimum overall cumulative grade point average of 3.0 at the end of the graduate student's second term of enrollment, and at the end of each subsequent term thereafter. Demonstrate successful completion of the required percentage of the total cumulative credit hours he or she has attempted in the program of study at the intervals described below.
