Page 13 - Rules of Implementation of the Undergraduate Study and Examinations By- Law

A. If a college intends to create a new program or update an existing
one, the proposal must be presented to the College Curriculum
Committee, the Department and College Councils, and the
Institutional Curricula Committee. The proposal should then be
submitted to the University Council to obtain initial approval
before proceeding with further preparation.

B. Modifications to the plan can only be made with the approval of
the Department and College Councils, the recommendation of the
Institutional Curricula Committee, and the subsequent approval of
the University Council.

C. When changes are made to a study plan, it is expected that some
courses may no longer be offered, or new courses may be added.
Therefore, students who progress at a slower pace should fulfill
their graduation requirements according to the timeline of their
original degree plan. If the new plan requires taking a course
that was previously cancelled but cannot be registered for, the
student may take an equivalent course (in terms of content and
credit hours), with the approval of their academic advisor, the
Department Council, and the College Council. In this case, the
Deanship of Admission and Registration must be informed.

D. If a dismissed or suspended student is readmitted, the student is
subject to the same study plan that was assigned to him/her in
their last semester at the University, unless that plan has been
canceled. If the student’s original study plan has been canceled,
the student will be transferred to the most recent study plan that
is appropriate for their major.

3. Departments are responsible for establishing a list of approved
elective courses and submit it to the College Council. The approved
list is to be forwarded to the Deanship of Admission and Registration.

4. The student must maintain the academic progress within
the framework of the study plan. If the student completes all
requirements of the plan, he/she will be eligible for graduation.

5. The student bears the responsibility for understanding and
following academic rules and regulations, including graduation
requirements.
