Teach-Out Policy

In the case that a program, program option, or program modality is to be discontinued, the institution is responsible for ensuring that students are sufficiently supported to complete their program requirements in a timely manner. The University will provide the necessary advisement, resources, faculty, and support services for the program to meet all obligations to its existing students, ensuring that:

  • the program is reasonably similar in content, structure, and scheduling as it is registered with the New York State Education Department; and

  • delivery of the program is consistent with MSCHE accreditation and policies

The program and respective college/unit leadership, in consultation with relevant offices, must develop a teach-out plan. The teach-out plan outlines the subsequent process by which instructional and support services are provided to students to allow them to complete program requirements within a reasonable time. Teach-out plans will be consistent with all regulations, requirements, and expectations of external agencies, including any relevant licensing or accrediting bodies.
