Community Standards

What is the Office of Community Standards? 

UAlbany’s Office of Community Standards administers the student code of conduct, called Community Rights & Responsibilities, and ensures students understand how to uphold those principles.

If a student violates the code of conduct and is referred to our office, we will meet with them to explain the University’s student conduct procedures and how they can repair the breach. 

We also are available to speak with students and their families on various issues, such as questions related to our process or requests for help with conflict resolution. 

Contact Community Standards at 518-442-5501 or [email protected].
