Approval and Records Maintenance Process

The chairperson of the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders (CSD) approves in writing (typically by email) all requests for a minor. The option applicable to each approved request is noted in the written approval. A copy of each written approval is forwarded by email to the CSD Administrative Assistant. These copies will be printed and maintained in the Undergraduate Admissions file drawer in the CSD Departmental office.
