Student Responsibility and Community Standards
As a Catholic, Jesuit institution, Saint Louis University holds high standards regarding the conduct of its students both on and off the SLU campus.
Our mission in the Office of Student Responsibility and Community Standards is to help you, as students, think reflectively and act respectfully, both in how you care for your fellow community members and the ways you care for yourself. We actively support educational initiatives and restorative justice that prioritize your learning and long-term success. We also play a central role in educating and training students, faculty and staff about our community standards, values and expectations.
Student Handbook
The Student Handbook outlines all University policies that pertain to students and student organizations, University community standards and residence hall policies. You are responsible for reviewing and understanding the policies and expectations for your behavior as a student at Saint Louis University.
Community Standards Process
The Office of Student Responsibility will review and investigate all allegations and complaints involving students or student organizations.

Student Appeal Board
The Student Appeal Board consists of undergraduate students who decide the final determination of disciplinary cases.
