Please Note: (10-24-23) MAPP is undergoing a major revision this year initially focused on Incompletes, W's, Leave of Absence and Declaration of Major policies. As policies are approved (revised or new), we will add or replace copy with dates. The W deadline recently shared via email should be followed this semester.
