GRIEVANCES

Flatiron School strives to address student dissatisfaction as quickly as possible. Students should utilize the following guidance to resolve any grievances that arise during their time as a student with Flatiron School. Students may submit a complaint to the school no more than one calendar year following the student’s last date of attendance in the student's program of study. For the purposes of this policy, the last date of attendance is defined as either the student's graduation date or the date of withdrawal or dismissal from the program. 

1. Students are encouraged to first attempt to resolve any complaints or concerns by discussing the issue directly with the relevant party.
2. Students who do not feel comfortable bringing the complaint to the relevant party, or who are not satisfied with the resolution, should direct their complaint as follows:

1. Enrolled students should contact their Student Advisor
2. Graduated students should contact their Career Coach
3. Alternatively, any student may email their concerns to the Student Relations team (studentrelations@flatironschool.com)

3. Within five (5) business days of receiving the complaint, Student Advisor (enrolled students), Career Coaches (graduated students), or the Student Relations team (studentrelations@flatironschool.com) will contact the student to discuss next steps toward resolution.

Depending on the nature of the complaint, the final decision regarding the student’s complaint will be made by the head of the associated program or department. Flatiron School will not retaliate against any student who files a grievance or complaint against the school. Nothing in this internal Grievances policy prevents a student from filing a complaint with their state regulator. Contact information for state regulators can be found below.

Alaska

The Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education (ACPE) processes complaints alleging violations of state institutional authorization law relative to postsecondary institutions or programs in Alaska. A student is encouraged to pursue the complaint / grievance process at their institution prior to contacting ACPE. This process is outlined in the institution’s catalog. Frequently asked questions regarding filing complaints with ACPE can be found here. To request a complaint form, please send an email to: EED.ACPE-IA@alaska.gov.
