Forms
This page contains quick links to forms needed to initiate activities related to courses, programs, and units. These forms are also embedded throughout the website. As you learn how to accomplish a particular task (e.g., revise a degree), you will find the required forms are provided within the appropriate section of the website. If you have any questions, please contact us.
Course Forms Heading link

- CRS Fillable Course Form: may be used to gather required information in order to propose a course. If you are revising an existing course, we recommend your college provide you with a PDF of the course’s current version from CRS so that you can use the fillable form to edit course information as needed.
