Student Complaint Process
Federal regulations require that institutions that participate in federal student aid programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 as amended must have a process whereby the State in which the institution is located can review and appropriately act on complaints arising under State law. North Carolina maintains a state-level student complaint process that fulfills the requirement under 34 CFR 600.9(a)(1) for states to “review and appropriately act on complaints concerning institutions,” including the enforcement of applicable state laws. In North Carolina, this function is carried out through the UNC System Office’s Post‑Secondary Education Complaints unit, which serves as the statewide clearinghouse for reviewing and acting on complaints regarding postsecondary institutions authorized to operate in the state. More information about this complaint process, along with instructions on how to file a complaint, is available on the North Carolina student complaint portal.
