How AdvocatED Helps UNE Students

Frequently Asked Questions: UNE Students

Do I need a lawyer for a University of New England conduct hearing?

In most cases, no. University of New England's Office of Community Standards follows university policy, not the legal system. What you need is someone who understands how UNE's specific process works and can help you prepare an effective case. AdvocatED brings deep, specialized expertise in these processes, often more than general practice attorneys, at a fraction of the cost.

How quickly do I need to act after receiving a notice from Office of Community Standards?

Immediately. University of New England sets strict deadlines for responding to allegations and filing appeals. Missing these windows eliminates your options. Contact AdvocatED as soon as you receive any notice.

Can AdvocatED attend my UNE hearing with me?

Most schools, including University of New England, allow students to bring an advisor to conduct hearings. We'll confirm exactly what UNE's current policy permits and advise on how to have expert guidance in your corner, whether at the hearing or through intensive pre-hearing preparation.

What if I already had my hearing and received an unfavorable decision?

You likely still have appeal rights. University of New England's appeals process allows students to contest decisions on grounds including procedural error, new evidence, and disproportionate sanction. Contact us immediately, appeal windows are short.
