CAS Procedures

Program of Study

Some programs may require a CAS Program of Study form:

• However, any exceptions or substitutions to the courses listed on your audit page must be approved, using a Petition to Faculty form.

Culminating Experience

If your CAS program requires a culminating experience, find out from your program:

• The nature of the requirement, and what you have to do to meet it.

• If you have to complete a form to register for this requirement.

• When you should begin the requirement, and how much time is typically required.

• Whether you need to collect artifacts for a portfolio throughout your program.

• Whether you must have completed most or all coursework to start preparing for an exam.

Awarding of Certificate

Completion of your coursework and other requirements determines the appropriate degree award date.
