Academic Policies
Academic Policy establishes standards, processes, rights, and responsibilities in learning, teaching, assessment, curriculum, admission, academic progress, and graduation. As such, academic policy supports student academic performance and success by guiding the University toward generally consistent practices, informed by the University’s mission and values.
