1.    Degree Cognate Substitution- Recent Changes- Mary Schutten

In the past, when approval of a substitution for a course that was part of the approved three course BS degree for a program was needed, it was approved by the department, then the Office of Academic Resources and Special Programs (formerly ARC).

Department -> ARSP -> Records


 This process has been changed to:

Department -> Dean's Office -> Records.

 

We have a simple online form for you to use
