- Alverno College catalogs are in effect for six years from the initial effective term.
- Catalogs take effect on the first day of classes for the academic year.
- The same catalog must be used for major, minor and general-education requirements.
- Students may use courses from their declared catalog or future catalogs if their Department Chair/Program Director approves the courses to meet major/minor requirements.
- Students may also use new courses that meet general education requirements from future catalogs to fulfill general education requirements, regardless of the declared catalog.
- New first-year or transfer students follow the catalog requirements in effect during the semester they matriculate to Alverno College.
- Upon their advisor’s advice students may follow a more recent catalog, but never an earlier catalog.
- Students who are readmitted, after an absence of two or more semesters up to six years, excluding Summer, must meet the requirements of the current catalog, or submit a “Catalog Declaration form” requesting to use degree/major requirements from the catalog at the time of their matriculation, or any catalog under which they attended, up to five years prior to the term of readmission.
