The Curriculum Committee approved the following resolution on March 17, 2022:
- For the graduating Class of 2025, the Registrar has the authority, while adhering to the minimum Minnesota State standards, to make adjustments to overall degree requirements including credit limits, General Education/OLE Core requirements, and Major/Concentration requirements. Students seeking a waiver must submit with their request a brief explanation of the reasons that the circumstances of Interim 2022 impeded their timely progress toward the degree. The Registrar will consult with department chairs and/or program directors before waiving any major/concentration requirement. This petition must be turned in to the Registrar no later than the last day of classes during the spring semester of 2025.
To submit a petition to the Registrar, email registrar@stolaf.edu with your request and explanation of how the events during Interim 2022 impacted your degree completion plans. If you are asking for anything other than a reduction in overall credits, please include email support from your advisor.
