APC Curriculum Proposal Deadlines: 2024-2025

By Zaira Sylvain, December 11, 2024

The Academic Policies Committee is pleased to announce the AY2024-2025 curriculum proposal deadlines, for new and revised courses and programs to be included in the Fall 2025 catalog. Remember that all curriculum proposals are submitted for review through the online curriculum management system (CIM)

  • As a reminder, all new/revised courses, new/revised programs, expedited proposals, exempt proposals, supporting documentation/memos, and miscellaneous information MUST be received by Tuesday before the agenda is posted. Agendas are posted a week before the scheduled meeting. Failure to do so may result in a delay in the review process. As always, it helps APC-C manage its workload if school curriculum committees submit complete program revision packages to APC-C as early in the fall semester as possible.

To guarantee inclusion in the 2025-26 catalog, the following deadlines for revisions include:

  • For program revisions requiring NYSED submission, complete program revision proposal packages: submitted from the Schools to APC in CIM by 4pm on Wednesday, September 11.
  • For all other programs, complete program revision proposal packages (with associated course proposals): submitted from the Schools to APC in CIM by 4pm on Thursday, October 24.
  • Final deadline for all course proposals and expedited program revisions with no associated course changes: submitted from the Schools to APC in CIM by 4pm on Wednesday, January 22.

Requests for extensions will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The Associate Dean rep to APC should be in touch with the Associate Provost and APC-C Chair (by email at apc@ithaca.edu) as soon as it becomes clear that an extension is needed, so an acceptable submission date can be determined.

To support faculty, APC-C provides a series of guidance documents with all the who, what, when, and why information needed for preparing effective and complete curriculum proposals.
