Catalog Year/Program Changes Policy
Students will complete the degree requirements in place at the time (catalog year) of initial enrollment unless New York State alters those requirements. If the Seminary makes changes to an academic program, the practice is to allow students who have been continuously enrolled (summer excluded) to continue following the requirements current at the time of initial enrollment. Any change demanded by institution curricular policy should not add to the total number of courses nor delay the date of graduation.
Students may opt to advance to a more recent catalog year if it is advantageous to their academic goals; however the entire set of graduation requirements listed in any one catalog must be used. Any change of catalog year must be noted and must be approved by both the students' advisor and the registrar.
Students who interrupt the program for two or more semesters (summer excluded) must meet the requirements of the catalog current at the time of return.
