The following is the contact information for each state portal agency for student complaints. Alabama is a member of the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (NC-SARA). If you currently reside in a state that is also a member of NC-SARA, you may choose to submit your complaint with the Alabama State Portal Agency (ASPA) of the Alabama Commission on Higher Education, which oversees UAB and assists our out-of-state students like you. You may choose to file a complaint directly to your state agency at any time. Please visit the main Complaint Process for Out-of-State Students page for more information about the UAB's complaint process for out-of-state students.
