Appeal Process

Students at risk of or removed from the Irvine Valley Promise program may appeal for readmission. Early high school graduates or students transferring from another community college promise program can also be considered for the program through the appeal process.

Note: This is appeal process for the Irvine Valley Promise program, not for the California College Promise Grant (CCPG).

Below are two types of appeals and criteria. All students submitting an appeal must meet the requirements of maintaining eligibility to be considered.

You may select/submit ONE of the following appeal types:

1. Progress Appeal: For students that are at-risk of being removed from the program. Students will need to complete the appeal module sent via IVC student email.
2. Emergency Appeal: An extenuating circumstance or unforeseen circumstance beyond your control that has or may impact your progress in the Promise program in the future. Some examples of extenuating circumstances include, but are not limited to: personal illness, accident, serious family issue, death, and housing/food insecurity. These circumstances might have been so severe that you had to drop out for the semester. High school graduates completing early or students transferring from another community college promise program can also use this form to be considered for the program.
