Academic Ombud Services
A neutral, independent and confidential resource for students and faculty.
University of Kentucky Academic Ombud Services provides an independent confidential space for students and faculty to receive advice and guidance regarding any academic issue. The Academic Ombud Services staff helps resolve conflicts by thinking creatively about solutions, empowers students with the tools to solve problems, and mediates between faculty and students to facilitate respectful communication. Academic Ombud Services is open to all members of the UK academic community.
Professional, graduate and undergraduate students, as well as faculty, contact Academic Ombud Services with a variety of questions and concerns. Faculty inquiries often involve how the University Senate Rules relate to an instructor's particular course.
Inquiries are held in confidence.
