Our office also provides valuable input to the Committee on Studies, which concerns itself with the introduction of new courses, new programs, new concentrations, as well as with the overall evaluation of academic matters. We assist the Committee on Academic Status, which is charged with the responsibility to hear student appeals for readmission following academic dismissal. This committee also reviews requests by students seeking a change to their current graduation class status.
