Committee on Undergraduate Studies

The Committee on Undergraduate Studies is charged with interpreting the general academic requirements of the undergraduate college and has the authority to grant exceptions and waivers when warranted. It is composed of five faculty members, two students and the Director of Undergraduate Academic Affairs.

Students should submit a formal letter along with the completed petition form to Michael C. Jordan, Director of Undergraduate Academic Affairs, campus mail AQU 110. Petition forms and further information about the Committee can be found here.

The petition form should be signed by the student's faculty adviser. If the request involves a decision or action of an instructor, a statement from that instructor should accompany the student's request.

Requests concerning major or minor field requirements should be addressed to the appropriate department chair.
