If the student is still unsatisfied, contact the administrator in charge of the office. For more details, visit our Complaints and Appeals page.
Discrimination:

II. Complaint Procedures for out-of-state students
Students are encouraged to use the process stated in number I above, before contacting the state. If out-of-state students want to contact the state of Nebraska regarding an online class, use the process noted here.
Complaints to the Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education regarding Nebraska degree-granting postsecondary institutions participating in the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (SARA) may be filed through the online complaint form through CCPE.
Please note that the first step in resolving complaints is to attempt to resolve the matter directly with the involved institution under established institution complaint or grievance procedures. Generally, a person who contacts the CCPE office regarding complaints about Nebraska institutions participating in SARA will be referred to college or university officials. In the event that the institutional processes do not result in a successful resolution of a SARA complaint, CCPE is responsible for resolution of any such complaints originating at any SARA participant institution, public or private.
