Academic Program Planning

Revision Development Phase

Development of the minor revision paperwork only involves local (i.e.: campus) approval and, therefore, typically moves very quickly.  

BEGIN by meeting with APLI staff who will:

  • Provide an overview of the process, including checklists, timelines, and relevant forms. 
  • Give you access to the Curricular Tracking SharePoint site (currently only available for GR proposals) where you will have access to: 
    • Curricular Tracking Tutorials
    • Curricular Tracking at-a-Glance Status Reports
    • Links to drafts of the appropriate curricular forms for your proposal  
  • Pre-fill documents where possible or provide samples where pre-filling is not possible. 
  • Assist the Program Lead in any necessary revision of codes such as SED, HEGIS, and CIP 
  • Offer guidance as needed for identifying any appropriate/available course numbers. 
  • Provide a review for spelling, grammar, formatting, content, and compliance with New Paltz, SUNY, and NYSED expectations. 
  • Help you initiate the Internal Review Phase. 

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL DRAFTS SHOULD BE IN WORD DOCUMENT FORMAT.  DO NOT USE PDFs.

SUNY System's Guide to Academic Program Planning provides an overview of the proposal process as well as links to Academic Program Planning Forms.
