Common Curriculum Requirement Removal Request
This form is designed for department chairs seeking the removal of a Common Curriculum requirement from an undergraduate course.
Please note that only the Department chair offering the course may submit this request. The form collects input from university offices and forwards it to the department for consideration.
Process
- Submit a Common Curriculum Course Requirement Removal Request Form.
- Choose your department's School of Record.
