2. The Department Chair signs the course form or the School Curriculum Committee may review, approve and sign the course form.
3. Dean approves and signs the course form.
4. Undergraduate Courses: Forms are forwarded to the Office of the Registrar, Attn:  Thomas A May, Cavanaugh 141. Graduate & Professional Courses: Forms are forwarded to the IUPUI Graduate Office, Attn:  Beth Young, UN 207.  
5. Undergraduate credit courses are put on the IUPUI Remonstrance List located at: http://www.iupui.edu/~crsremo/undergrad.html. New course requests will be placed on the site around the first of each month. Once the list has been established for the remonstrance period no additions or deletions are made. Any new courses that are forwarded after the publication of the monthly list are added to the next listing. This list is reviewed by Academic Affairs Officers, Academic Deans and Academic Representatives from the Academic Policies and Procedures Committee. An email notification* is sent to members of the list alerting them that a new remonstrance list is available. After 30 days, if no objections are filed, the course forms are approved and forwarded for final inclusion in the IUPUI course catalogue.
