The transfer of credits between a NC Community College and WSSU is governed by a Comprehensive Articulation Agreement (CAA). If you believe the terms of the CAA have not been honored by WSSU you may appeal our decision through the CAA Transfer Credit Appeal Procedure.
Steps in Filing an Appeal
Step 1
- By the last day of classes of the first semester for which admission is offered, you must submit a CAA Transfer Credit Appeal Form along with any supporting documentation to the Office of the Registrar at WSSU. If you first enrolled at WSSU in a summer session must submit their appeal by the end of the subsequent fall semester.
- You must specify on the appeal form the specific CAA language that is in contention. Appeals that lack this information will not be considered.
- The Registrar will review the appeal and respond in writing (email or letter) to you within 15 business days.
Step 2
- If you are not satisfied with the decision of the Registrar, may appeal on the same form to the Chief Academic Officer (Provost) of WSSU within 15 days of written notice of the Registrar's decision.
- The Provost will review the appeal and respond in writing (email or letter) to you within 15 business days of receiving your appeal.
Step 3
- If you are not satisfied with the decision of the Provost, you may appeal to the Transfer Advisory Committee (TAC) subcommittee, composed of the Co-chairs, a representative from the UNC General Administration, and a representative from the NCCCS. You must submit the appeal to the subcommittee within 15 days of the receipt of the Provost’s decision.
- The appeal to the TAC subcommittee should be sent to:
UNC-GA Transfer Advisory Committee Member
CAA Appeal
PO Box 2688
Chapel Hill, NC 27515
If a consensus is reached by the subcommittee, the student will be notified within 15 business days; if a consensus resolution is not reached, the appeal will be forwarded by the subcommittee to the full TAC within 10 business days. The TAC will review the appeal and notify the student of the final decision within 10 business days of receiving the appeal.
