Formal Student Complaint Process  

Coastal Bend College encourages a formal complaint to be resolved in a respectful manner. Retaliation of any form for filing a formal complaint will not be tolerated. All students have the right to complete the formal complaint process, which should be followed in all situations where informal resolution is insufficient to address the issue(s).   

An anonymous formal complaint is allowed, however, the College's ability to investigate and respond to a formal complaint can be hindered. Please complete the online formal complaint form entirely, providing as much detail as possible. All formal complaint submissions are confidential and shared only with those who need to know.   

A formal complaint is a request for the resolution of a problem, conflict, concern, or issue that negatively impacts a student(s). A formal complaint must be filed using the CBC Formal Student Complaint Form.
