Immaculata University desires to resolve student grievances, complaints and concerns expeditiously and fair manner. If the complaint cannot be resolved through the University’s complaint and appeals processes, the student may go to the Pennsylvania Department of Education; or Immaculata University’s accreditor, the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.
