Rights and Consequences

When sexual violence occurs in our community, the University of South Carolina provides measures to protect survivors' safety, hold accused students accountable, prevent future threats to campus and ensure due process for all involved.

The Department of Education released new regulations that took effect on Aug. 14, 2020. The university currently operates under EOP 1.06. Understanding this policy is important to help you determine what your next steps may be and options for resolution. Incidents reported before Aug. 14, 2020, will be referred to prior versions of this policy, which are located on the EOP website.
