This is a Update/Change to Policy

Existing Policy URL: https://campus.collegeforcreativestudies.edu/policy/junior-status/

Description of Change

The Junior Status should be amended to include the various new pods of Foundations required for the different majors as well as update the Liberal Arts requirement to remove DFS 100, Intro. to Interdisciplinary Studies – no longer required, and update the English courses to DEN 101 and DEN 102.

Policy Statement

Students are required to complete all 15-18 credits of Foundation courses (depending on major) and 15 credits of 100/200 level Liberal Arts courses before they can begin their junior level departmental studio courses.

Each department decides which departmental courses students must complete before progressing to junior level department courses. Students who place into ELS 107 are not subject to the same Junior Status Policy requirements.

Students who fail to complete Junior Status requirements by the end of their sophomore year will receive a “Junior Status hold” and may need registration approval.

Reason for Policy

This policy update will reflect updates in the CCS curriculum to make it current.
