Notice of Proposed Rule

Department:

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

Division:

State Board of Education

Chapter:

COMMUNITY COLLEGES

Overview

RULE:

6A-14.094

Site Determined Specialized Associate in Arts Transfer Degree Access

PURPOSE:

To create a more streamlined review and approval process for FCS institutions that propose specialized associate in arts transfer (SAAT) degree programs. The current period SUS institutions and FCS institutions have to submit comments regarding proposed SAAT degree programs is 60 calendar days. The amendment will reduce the comment period to 30 days. The original 60 day period mirrored the baccalaureate degree program proposal process but, being that ICUF and CIE institutions are not included in the SAAT proposal process as they are with the baccalaureate proposals, the additional 30 days for those institutions are not needed. The effect of the rule amendment will reduce the time SUS institutions and FCS institutions have to submit comments regarding the proposed SAAT degree program and will allow for a more efficient review and approval process. Technical edits will also be made to the current incorporated forms. Other changes may be considered for purposes of clarity and consistency.

SUMMARY:

Rule amendment will address the timeline for comment period for proposed SAAT degrees.
