Denying an Incident

Reviewers can deny an incident when they no longer want it associated with the student and converting it to a minor infraction is not applicable.

Note: This step is taken during the review process and is only applicable when the incident is still pending and has not yet been approved.

To deny an incident, go to the Reviewer Area, select Pending Incidents on the left side navigation, select View Incident, and then choose Deny Incident.

When a reviewer denies an incident, they are required to enter a reason for the denial. The submitter will automatically receive an email notifying them that the incident has been updated. In the system, the submitter will see a status of "Administrative decision complete" with a message that says "Please see an administrator for further information."

If the reviewer enables the "Show this reason to the submitter" option, the submitter will also be able to view the specific denial reason or feedback provided by the administrator. If the option is disabled, the submitter will only see the default message: "Please see an administrator for further information."
