After the period of suspension is up, you may petition the Dean of Students for re-enrollment by completing this form. 

A sanction of Suspension or Expulsion will result in a permanent transcript notation. 

Information about your hearing/meeting and its result is only shared with other University personnel who need to know. This may include representatives from Residential Life, the Dean of Students, or other parties that may be involved in or impacted by the outcome. We do not share any information with other students (except complainants under certain circumstances).

You may not bring anyone with you to an Administrative Review Meeting. If you are being assisted by an advisor or supported by a friend, they must wait outside the meeting room. If you are a complainant or respondent in an higher-level hearing, you may be assisted by your advisor during the hearing. Any additional support people must wait outside the hearing room.

You do not have to appear at the hearing/review meeting. If you do not appear, a decision about your responsibility and an appropriate community status/terms will be determined in your absence. The hearing officer/administrative reviewer will make this decision based on the evidence available to them. 

If you appear at the hearing/review meeting, you have the right to refrain from providing information that is self-incriminating. However, hearing officers/administrative reviewers are allowed to consider this in their decision-making process.

For Administrative Review Meetings, you may make an appointment with OSCCS to review redacted evidence before your review meeting. You may take handwritten notes but will not be allowed to photograph or photocopy the documents. Please email [email protected] to schedule an appointment to review your review meeting documents.

If you are found responsible for a Code violation, our office will report it if asked. Internal to Brown University, we will share any violations and their resulting outcomes. For external constituents, we only report incidents that resulted in a community status outcome of Probation or above. We will not report any charges for which you were found not responsible, any warning letters, or any No Contact Orders.

No. Your student conduct record remains a part of your permanent record.
