Concept: Academic Policies
Academic policies provide a flexible way to streamline processes for your institution. By setting up academic policies, you reduce manual effort and ensure consistency in student processes.
Students are subject to the policy you assign to their academic unit and level or their program of study.
Unless you override them, academic policies inherit according to your academic structure:
- Academic unit level configurations inherit policies from the above academic unit level configuration.
- Programs of study inherit policies from the owning academic unit and level.
You can use these reports (secured to the
Set Up: Academic Policies
domain) to view and edit the academic policies for an academic unit:
- View Academic Unit Policies as of Date.
- Student Policiesreport on the Policies profile group of the academic unit profile.
You can also use the
Academic Unit Policy Viewer
report (secured to the Set Up: Academic Policies
domain) to view current and all past versions of an academic policy for:
- An academic unit and level configuration.
- A program of study.
