Core Course Applications
You can now submit core course applications electronically. If you already submitted a course proposal, you do not have to redo or add anything. Electronic submission is required after August 24th. Please review the following guidelines:
- Be certain to save your course proposal and CC your department chair and your dean when you electronically submit your course application to newcore@lmu.edu.
- Your chair and dean can approve your proposal by sending an e-mail message stating approval to newcore@lmu.edu.
- Once we receive you chair's and dean's approval, your course proposal will be reviewed by the appropriate course approval committee of the UCCC.
- No proposal will be reviewed by a course approval committee without both your chair's and dean's approval. You will receive word from the UCCC, who will copy your chair and dean upon committee approval.
