Effective dates

Effective dates charts are produced by the Office of the Registrar and take into consideration the following:

• The publishing cycle of undergraduate recruitment materials.
• The publishing timeline for the Undergraduate Studies Academic Calendar.
• Senate and related council meeting dates.

Important information for undergraduate studies:

• All proposals must be for the upcoming publication of the academic calendar; submissions for a future-dated cycle must be held until that cycle opens up in the system.
• All proposals must have a fall term effective date; the academic calendar is published annually and courses and plans are often linked.
  • Other terms are visible because Kuali Curriculum Management is shared for use with graduate studies, which publishes their academic calendar termly.
• All proposals must have a future-dated effective date, as outlined in the applicable effective dates chart.
  • Any retro-active requests must be made to the Office of the Registrar prior to submission. If a retro-active request is approved, a determination must be made if it will be reflected in past academic calendars or not. Contact the Office of the Registrar before proceeding.

All editorial submissions for the 2024-2025 Undergraduate Studies Academic Calendar must be received in the Office of the Registrar no later than 4 p.m. on March 15, 2024 to be considered for approval prior to publication. Any late submissions will be considered as an amendment post-publication or for the 2025-2026 publication.

Reminder: All editorial path submissions in Kuali CM will first be reviewed by faculty/institution contacts.
