Academic Review Board
The Academic Review Board is the principal body for overseeing each student’s academic progress and for granting exceptions to degree requirements and academic policies.
The Board is chaired by the Dean of Students, and includes the Class Deans, faculty members, and student representatives. The Board researches and recommends changes in academic policy. A student who wishes to submit a petition to the Academic Review Board should do so in consultation with her class dean. Students should send petitions to their class dean at least one week before the petition is to be considered by the Board.
