Students must report perceived discrepancies in the crediting of attendance at an ACE event to the Associate Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs (tlintner@usca.edu) no later than thirty (30) calendar days following the event. Students will not earn credit for perceived discrepancies reported after thirty (30) calendar days.
