Procedures for Establishing New Electives
- Last Modified: Jan 17, 2025

- Responsible Office(s): Council on Curriculum
Policy Statement
It is important that decisions concerning electives be made well in advance so the necessary approval may be obtained. If students wish to schedule new electives that have not previously been approved by the Council on Curriculum, they should use the New Elective Course Description Form (PDF). Detailed instructions for completion can be found on the form.
The Course Description Form must be completed and returned to the Council on Curriculum no later than the first calendar day of the month prior to the start date of the elective. If course description information cannot be acquired within this time frame, the student should contact the Curriculum Office to discuss the situation.
