New Quest Course - Temporary

All Quest 1 and Quest 2 courses must first obtain a temporary approval for General Education and Writing designations from the General Education Committee before being offered.

Addition of a permanent Quest/General Education, or Writing Requirement designation may only be requested for existing courses or proposed courses that have already been approved by the University Curriculum Committee (i.e., SCNS approval may be pending). Modification or removal of a General Education or Writing Requirement designation may be requested at any time.

Process Steps

The academic approval tracking system will automatically route the request (including all accompanying forms and documents) to the following groups for approval and/or notification.

1. General Education Program Coordinator (Review is required for minimum Quest Requirements)
2. Department (Approval is required from the Chair or other designated approver for the department that offers the course, typically following review by the department curriculum committee.)
3. College (Approval is required from the Dean or other designated approver for the college or unit in the preceding step, typically following review by the college curriculum committee.)
4. GEC (Approval is required from General Education Committee, and may include consultation with Quest experts on the GEC.)
5. OUR (Approval is required from the Office of the University Registrar.)
6. CAT [N](Designation will be reflected in the undergraduate catalog.)
7. College [N] (The College is notified of request approval.)
8. General Education Program Coordinator [N] (The GE program coordinator is notified of the request approval.)
