If you are submitting a course proposal, please make sure that the prefix number you are choosing has not been used in the past. The Registrar’s Office requires that all prefixes be new and previously unused. If a prefix must be changed after you’ve submitted a course proposal to the College Senate Office, you do not need to resend the routing form. The number can be changed on the submitted routing form; however, this must be done before the review and approval process is complete to ensure that the correct number will be entered in Banner.

All curricular templates and routing forms for courses, major programs, and minor programs are available on the College Senate website.

From the Chair of the College Senate Curriculum Committee
