Petition–Processing Policy
Students may petition the appropriate college dean or committee for consideration of problems related to curricula or admission, which are not covered by state procedures. For information regarding admission petitions, please contact ISU's Office of Admissions. Current students seeking an exception for curriculum related issues must include the following information with their petition:
- A recommendation from their advisor
- A recommendation by the chair of the department offering courses in the subject field or by a special committee overseeing the requirement in question
- Students requesting a transfer course equivalency must provide a catalog description for the course(s) in question
All copies of the petition must be forwarded to the Registrar's Office for action after all signatures are affixed. Decisions may require several weeks. Notice of the result will be mailed to the student.
