Do not send sensitive information or national identification numbers by email; use a digital mailbox when sending individual decisions to students.
If students need to send sensitive information or their national identification number to UiA, they can use the secure channel to UiA.
An individual decision must:
- provide justification
- be based on legal or regulatory authority
- include information about the right to appeal, the deadline for appeals, and the appellate body
- be sent as quickly as possible. In exceptional cases, notification may be provided orally
Guides in Norwegian:
Create individual decisions and use standard textExamples of individual decisions
Appeals handling
- Appeals against individual decisions should be sent to the faculty or division that made the decision
- The faculty/division will reconsider the decision in light of the appeal
Example of a letter to the student:
- If the decision is upheld, the appeal will be forwarded to the case officer for UIA's Appeals Committee
- The appeal will be considered by UIA's Appeals Committee
- A copy of the committee's decision is sent to the faculty/division that made the appealed decision
- If the student's appeal is upheld, follow-up is handled by the faculty/division
- The committee's decisions on appeals cannot be further appealed
