PILOT CONTINUOUS COURSE REVIEW

1. What changes can be made via Continuous Course Review?

A proposal for a modified or new course can be made via Continuous Course Review, UNLESS it would

a) affect a program in another department (an exception may be made provided that a memo of agreement is supplied), or
b) create a new course requirement for students on current or prior catalogs (an exception may be made if the new course is offered as an alternative to a current course requirement and is the same or fewer units), or
c) they would result in an increase in units in a required course.

These changes need to be requested during a Catalog Review cycle.

Note: proposals must be received by dates below to be considered for that term, otherwise course will be considered for the next term.
