Substitutions of course requirements must be approved by the Coordinator of Advising in the Office of Academic Services, serving as liaison to the Academic Program Council (APC). Whenever possible, written requests for substitutions from Academic Advisers, along with the Adviser’s rationale for making the substitution, should be sent to the Department Chairperson or Interdisciplinary Program Director by the term prior to the graduation term, or as early as possible. (The Director of General Education serves as chairperson for GST and GSTR courses or requirements. The Coordinator of Advising serves as chairperson for Independent Majors.)
If the Chairperson or Director for an academic major or minor agrees to the substitution, s/he should e-mail the Coordinator of Advising expressing support for the substitution request, again, by the term prior to the term of graduation, or as early as possible. The Coordinator will either approve the request for substitution or exception or take the request to the Academic Program Council for its review and determination. The student, Academic Adviser, and Chairperson/Director will be notified by e-mail of the outcome. The Adviser should place a copy of the decision in the advisee’s folder.
