2024-2025 Catalog

Catalog Revisions


The Academic Catalog is made available annually prior to the fall semester on the official College website. Degree requirements go into effect annually in the fall semester or summer for students who enter the college for the first time in the summer.

Changes to degree requirements, majors, minors, the general education curriculum, and any other established program are only made annually and will go into effect in the fall semester. Other approved revisions that go into effect mid-year prior to the spring semester may be made for these reasons: academic policies, course title changes, course/description changes, and prerequisites. Editorial updates may be made continuously.

Annual and mid-year curricular changes must be reviewed through the formal curriculum review process and approved by the Wesleyan College faculty. Changes must be submitted by the deadlines established by the Curriculum Committee to correspond with advising and registration. The Provost may approve exceptions.

Mid-year revisions are to be documented here:

Auditing Courses (Graduate Policy)

Anyone who wishes to audit a class must be enrolled either as a degree-seeking or non-degree seeking student. Once enrolled, a student may register to audit a class during the drop/take period, with the exception of studio art class or laboratory course. The student may register to audit a studio art class or laboratory course on the last day of drop/take and with the written permission of the instructor teaching the course. The class attendance policy for the auditing student will be the same as required for the student taking the course for credit. Auditors are required to pay all fees that may be associated with the course (lab fee, studio art fees, activity fees, travel, et cetera). Consult the Business Office regarding fees for auditing courses. No individual is eligible to audit any nursing (NUR) course. Auditors for graduate courses are limited to one graduate course per two years. An auditor without a bachelor’s degree may be permitted to audit a graduate music course, if their prior experience or expertise is deemed adequate or equivalent to that of someone with a bachelor’s degree, by the program director and course instructor.
