Out-of-State Online Students

Any complaints pertaining to a Gwinnett Technical College online course or program should be filed with Gwinnett Technical College in accordance with the Student Complaint Policy.

Complaints needing further investigation beyond the college level may be submitted to TCSG using the Program Integrity Complaint Form. Before submitting to TCSG, students need to ensure they have followed the institution’s process.

A student may appeal to the  Georgia Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission (GNPEC) if the institution’s and TCSG’s resolution is not satisfactory; however, please note that the Commission will not investigate a complaint unless the student has exhausted all available grievance procedures outlined by the institution. GNPEC does not resolve complaints about student grades and student conduct violations. These complaints fall under the jurisdiction of institutional policy.

Students residing outside of the State of Georgia, who are taking an online course, may also file a complaint with an agency located in their state. Learn more about state regulatory agencies in your state.
