Originators may withdraw their proposal at any time, however, the functionality to do so in Curriculog is at the approver/reviewer level. Curriculog's terminology for withdrawing is cancelling.

If you wish to withdraw your proposal, first check to see what approval process step your proposal is currently on. Contact that approver/reviewer and ask for them to cancel your proposal.

If you do not receive a response or that approver/reviewer cannot or will not cancel your proposal, contact facultysenate@missouristate.edu.

Then add sections (cores) and construct the layout using the courses. Add wording, as needed, to cores.

Use the Preview Curriculum to review the layout. The Office of the Registrar will fix all formatting, alignment, and numbering issues during implementation.
