Student Code of Conduct

Strayer University expects its students to conduct themselves as business professionals, and to display maturity in their conduct as they progress toward their goals of academic and career success.

Students are expected to follow common courtesy, including allowing university personnel appropriate time to respond to an initial request and grouping questions into as few inquiries as possible. Students should only contact administrative staff on the staff member's campus phone numbers.

Types of conduct subject to disciplinary action include, but are not limited to, the following: dishonesty, unprofessional conduct, misuse of university property, alcohol and drug violations, criminal activity, violent/dangerous behavior and other violations of the Student Code of Conduct or the Academic Integrity Policy. Strayer does not condone threatening, harassing, or violent behavior of its students, faculty or staff. Sanctions for violations of the Student Code of Conduct include oral and/or written admonition, disciplinary probation, restitution, interim suspension, suspension, dismissal and revocation of degree.

The dean of students, upon satisfactory proof of violation of this policy, may immediately order an interim suspension or dismissal of a student, and will give the student written notice of their violation of the policy as set forth in the Student Handbook.
