Quinnipiac University maintains records of all violations of the Academic Integrity & Accountability Policy. These records are confidential and are not public records. If you have a question about your academic integrity history, please contact the Coordinator of Academic Integrity & Accountability at integrity@qu.edu.

If a student receives a sanction from the Academic Integrity & Accountability (AIA) Board that results in a Withdrawal with an Academic Integrity notation (WAI) or a Failure due to an Academic Integrity violation (FAI), this notation will appear on the student’s official academic transcript. Other academic integrity records are maintained internally and are not visible on transcripts unless a transcript notation is required by policy.

Students may submit a request for remediation to have a WAI or FAI notation removed from their academic record if either of the following conditions is met:

• Two full semesters or terms have passed since the date of the sanction with no subsequent academic integrity violations, or

• The student has completed the requirements for graduation, whichever occurs first.

If the petition is approved and the student successfully completes the remediation requirements administered by the Office of Academic Integrity & Accountability, a grade of WAI will be converted to W, and a grade of FAI will be converted to F on the academic record.

Suspension or expulsion from the university resulting from severe violations of the Academic Integrity & Accountability Policy will be noted on the student’s official transcript, and may not be remediated.

Some graduate programs and certifying boards may ask you to disclose an AIA violation. It is in your best interest to divulge this information, keeping with academic honesty that you have learned about as part of the adjudication process. If you require a letter from the Office of Academic Integrity & Accountability regarding your violation, please email the Coordinator of Academic Integrity & Accountability at integrity@qu.edu. Please include your student ID number and specify the semester and year when the violation(s) took place.
