Please note:
To comply with SACSCOC requirements, the Academic Ombud, ombud@uky.edu, must be copied on all emails to students and employees that involve suspected academic offenses.
Students have the right to remain in the course while the process is underway and the Registrar should be informed if the student withdraws. Students cannot withdraw from a course in which an academic offense has been committed.
Additionally, the academic offense process is confidential and only those involved in the process, and those with an academic need to know, may be informed. For example, it is not appropriate to inform students' advisors or other program faculty.
