Adding proposals to the APC-C Meeting Agenda for Review:
- All new/revised courses, new/revised programs, expedited proposals, exempt proposals, supporting documentation/memos, and miscellaneous information MUST be received the 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.
Deadlines for revisions to be submitted to APC-C for inclusion in the 2025-26 catalog:
- 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 as soon as it becomes clear that an extension is needed, so an acceptable submission date can be determined.
Deadlines for Fall 2024 Accelerated Proposal Review for New Instructional Methods
In March 2024, APC and Faculty Council approved an expanded credit hour policy for credit-bearing courses at Ithaca College. The updated policy codified two Types of Instruction (one new) that require review and approval through the curriculum process:
- Type IV - Courses combining faculty-led classroom-based instruction with advanced individualized study (Advanced Supplemental Interaction Instructional Method)
- Type V -Courses combining faculty-led classroom-based instruction with asynchronous online instruction (HybridInstructional Method).
Faculty who are interested in adding one of these instructional methods to courses being offering in spring 2025 or summer/fall 2025 may submit a curriculum proposal for an accelerated review and approval process for this academic year only. Information on the accelerated process is available here. Deadlines are as follows:
Courses to be offered in the spring 2025 semester:
proposals submitted to school curriculum committee chair by September 16
proposals submitted to APC curriculum committee chair by October 1
Courses to be offered in the summer/fall 2025 term/semester:
proposals submitted to school curriculum committee chair by November 1
proposals submitted to APC curriculum committee chair by November 15
