Sections within The Book provide students with general guidance, and are not intended to be a comprehensive statement of college policies, procedures and regulations.
Students are encouraged to read this document carefully and in its entirety.

College policy is continually being re-examined to reflect the needs and values of the community. As such, the college reserves the right to modify or cancel any statement in The Book at any time, and such changes may not be immediately reflected in this online publication.

The policies and statements included in The Book are not a contract and the college reserves the right to deviate from the policies and statements as deemed necessary from time to time.
The St. Olaf Academic Catalog is the official source of detailed information about the curriculum of the college, its course offerings, majors, areas of emphasis and concentrations, requirements for graduation, and procedures for admission. The responsibility for understanding and meeting graduation requirements rests entirely with the student.
