Academic Policies and Procedures

The policies and procedures presented in this Catalog are provided for the convenience of students, faculty, and staff, but none should be interpreted as an irrevocable contract. Each student is responsible for familiarizing him/herself with and noting changes in policy or procedures affecting his or her program and adjusting the program accordingly. Final responsibility for enrolling in appropriate courses in the right sequence and for meeting all degree requirements rests with the student.

In addition, A Dictionary of Academic Regulations provides additional information about B.A./B.S./BLS academic policies and procedures of the University. The Student Handbook, issued by the Office of Student Affairs, covers non-academic policies. BPS students should consult this Catalog and the handbook issued by the Office of Advising Services on the Stafford campus for academic and non-academic regulations. The remainder of this section of the Catalog provides information on a number of important academic policies and procedures applying to all undergraduate students.
