All the students enrolled at Adichunchanagiri Institute of technology have the right to appeal any academic matter in which they feel that they have been treated unfairly. Examples of student problems: Disputes over Grades, Course Requirements, Faculty or Staff Conduct, Fines, and Administrative Policies and Procedures.

If any problem arises and is not resolved informally, students may file a grievance with the College Grievance Redressal Cell (CGRC) of the College. Any type of student complaint or problem may be presented to the SGC for official review. The campus hearing body follows a set of formal procedures as per UGC Guidelines. A Student Representative (Ombudsman) will assist students in presenting their cases along with the guidance of the members of the committee as well. The deadline for filing any kind of grievance is the last day of the concerned semester, post the semester during which the incident occurred. Decisions made by the SGC are not appealable.

The SGC does not lend itself to quick solutions, so a resolution at a lower level is always more desirable. Attempts at such a resolution are required before the committee will accept a case. Paperwork is available in the office.

Any student who wishes to file a grievance can contact the chairperson of the College Grievance Redressal Cell (CGRC) in the college office.
