Decide Which Approval Process (AP) to Use

To request a change to the academic catalog, select the relevant AP form to start a new proposal. Each form is designed, in ongoing collaboration between faculty and administration, to request the information that will ultimately be needed to implement the request on behalf of the department.

Some questions to consider:

  • Do you want to create a new thing or change an existing thing in the catalog?
  • Is your request about a course?
  • Is your request about a program?
  • Is your request about a policy? Is it a policy at the university-level, college-level, or department-level?

Still not quite sure which AP to use? Contact us! We're available to help you save time.

IMPORTANT: Changes to programs are typically approved to go into effect for the following fall of the next academic year. Departments are encouraged to submit requests as early as possible in the current academic year to allow sufficient time for approval and implementation for the following fall. 

Start a New Proposal

The individual who starts the proposal will be identified as the "Originator" in the workflow.

Complete a Proposal

  • View Instructions

Review a Proposal

After the "Originator" launches and approves a proposal, the proposal will move through the approval process workflow designed for the specific type of change that has been requested.

To review a proposal:

  • Note the title and type of Approval Process (AP)
  • Close section headers
  • Note the Sections
  • View the Tabs
  • Utilize User Tracking

Enter a Decision on a Proposal

As a proposal progresses through the approval process workflow, decisions will have varying meaning depending upon the "role" a reviewer holds. A list of the roles that can be found in the workflow, the meaning of decisions for each role, and instructions can be found on the Enter a Decision page.

Review an Agenda

When a proposal reaches a committee step, it will be added to that committee's agenda in Curriculog. To view an agenda:

  • Login to Curriculog.
  • In the "All Agendas" tab, find the date of the committee meeting.
  • Click the "View Agenda" icon.
  • See the "Notes" section for the Agenda.
  • See the proposals listed below the Notes section.
  • Click the "View Proposal" icon to see the full proposal.
  • Click the "View Proposal Summary" icon to see a summary of the proposal.
  • See the "Review a Proposal" section above for further details.
  • Do not vote on proposals listed in the agenda. The Chairs of the Faculty Senate Committees (Undergraduate Policy Committee (UPC), Graduate Policies and Affairs Committee (GPAC), and the Core Curriculum Committee (CORE), and the Faculty Senate President will enter decisions based on voting held during in-person meetings.
