ABOUT THE MID-YEAR ADDENDUM

OVERVIEW

The University Catalog is published annually and serves as a reference for the academic year. The University recognizes the evolving nature of curriculum and policy development results in proposal approvals throughout the academic year. The University Catalog Mid-Year Addendum allows critical policy updates and academic courses and programs approved outside the catalog publication cycle to be included in the official University catalog in a timely manner.

The Mid-Year Addendum is limited to policy updates to maintain compliance or align with international, national, state and other regulatory bodies, newly approved academic courses and programs, and critical announcements. Items included in the Mid-Year Addendum are effective at the start of the Spring term unless otherwise noted. 

PRIOR PUBLICATIONS

The University of Texas at Arlington Online University Catalog, published in June, is the official catalog of the University and takes precedence over any previously printed or online catalog.  As such, the University Catalog Mid-Year Addendum, published and effective at the start of Spring term, also supersedes catalog editions published prior to this date.

Students are governed by the catalog under which they were enrolled or, at a student’s option, the catalog of any subsequent year in which that student was in residence. Please refer to the academic requirements and procedures section for more information.
