Catalog Addendum
ABOUT THE 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 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 Addendum is limited to policy updates to maintain compliance or align with international, national, state and other regulatory bodies, to newly approved academic courses and programs, and to critical announcements. Items included in the Addendum are effective immediately unless otherwise noted.
PRIOR PUBLICATIONS
The Dallas Baptist University Catalog, published in March, is the official catalog of the University and takes precedence over any previously printed or online catalog. As such, the University Catalog Addendum 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 Undergraduate Academic Policies and Graduate Academic Standards sections for more information.
