Set an Alternate Catalog Year for Minor (A2)

Definition

This exception is used to change a student’s catalog year for the minor (where applicable – varies by college of the primary major). Catalog Year is the term/year in which the student began following the curriculum under which they will be certified to graduate. The default minor will automatically follow the catalog year of the primary major.

Please note that this exception will change the catalog year for all minors on a student’s record.

Example

The student’s catalog year is Autumn 2017. The student added a Statistics minor in Autumn 2019, so the academic advisor for Statistics wishes to place the student on the newer version of the curriculum.
