Instructions for Submitting Items to the APC
All proposals and documents initiated by faculty will start with a review and consultation from the appropriate college/school Dean who will move the request forward to the APC. The college/school Dean will ensure that appropriate USF system, USFSM, State of Florida and/or professional programs accreditation bodies' forms are used. The Dean will notify the Academic Affairs Office and the APC once the form has been completed. Documentation that the college/school process has been followed within the initiating college must accompany the proposal. Once the proposals have been reviewed by the APC there are additional administrative processes that must be followed prior to implementation of program changes.
