Catalog Applicability

The academic provisions of the catalog in effect at the time of a student’s initial academic evaluation remain applicable as long as the student remains in the original degree program, minor, or area of concentration and maintains continuous enrollment status. Revisions to university policies, rules, and regulations are in immediate effect for all students with the publication or revision of each new catalog.

If a student does not maintain continuous enrollment at the University, the student must apply for readmission. The provisions of the catalog in effect at the time of readmission then become applicable to the student.

Course prerequisites are catalog-year specific from the implementation date forward.

Curricular requirements stated in the applicable catalog will not be affected by subsequently published addenda or later catalogs unless the student elects to graduate under the provisions of a later catalog. Students who change from one degree program to another are governed by the catalog in effect on the date the change of program is approved. Students electing to graduate under the provisions of a later catalog must meet all admission, transfer, graduation, and related requirements of that catalog.
