Curriculum Proposal Deadline Reminder - Fall 2026

Course Revisions with an implementation date of Fall 2026 need to be processed before March 1, 2026. This deadline is of particular importance as the College works to comply with SUNY's updated General Education requirements (Civic Discourse and AI).

Any department considering submitting a curriculum proposal for Fall 2026 should consider submitting before the holiday break or no later than January 20.

The latest a course revision can be posted for Faculty Review and make the March 1 deadline is February 3. For a proposal to make the Curriculum Committee agenda it should be submitted no later than January 27 to have time to make it through several review and approval steps. After a required two-week posting period, the Curriculum Committee will have their last opportunity to approve Fall 2026 proposals on February 24.
