  • Students who matriculated in 2024 and thereafter are subject to ASCEND policies.
  • Students who matriculated in 2023 or earlier and who are graduating in 2027 or earlier are subject to the LEGACY curriculum policies.
  • Students who matriculated in 2023 or earlier who are graduating in 2028 or thereafter will be subject to a mix of policies depending on when their progression was delayed or temporarily halted. These students will be subject to ASCEND policies when they resume or continue their studies.
