Important Notes:
-When this new course replaces an existing course that will become inactive, it is not necessary to also complete a C2-Course Change request to change the status of the existing course. The Registrar will use the applicable effective date in Section C below to make the existing course inactive.
-If this course change is associated to a program (changed or new) it must be approved by Academic Council prior to the approval of a program (changed or new) request and/or a program name change request.
