Academic Standing – refers to issues such as failing a grade, being required to withdraw from a program, or promotion to next level of studies.
Housing appeals – Housing incidents that relate to the UBC Resident Contract, subletting, etc.
Parking disputes – Appealing a Traffic Notice (Parking ticket disputes).
Library fine appeals – Appealing library fines and other charges.
Other Disputes - accusations of bias, interpersonal complaints about faculty or staff, etc.

Provide direct support to students who are experiencing a conflict with the University, including academic misconduct allegations, academic standing disputes, student housing disputes and evictions, and requirements to withdraw.
Meet with students for intakes and follow up meetings, providing support including systems navigation, education on procedural fairness, and help students make informed decisions about next steps by outlining possible risks and benefits of different strategies.
Help prepare students for attending hearings before university committees. Accompany students to hearings requested.
Support appeal document requirements for service users including drafting and editing drafts of appeals.
