Course Description Request
Course description requests are also processed by the Office of the Registrar for courses taken on the Bloomington campus or on any regional campus if prior to the fall semester of 1968. Any work completed on a regional campus during or after that semester must be processed by the specific campus's Office of the Registrar. Occasionally, the description on file with the Registrar is not adequate or cannot be found. In these cases, the requester is either advised to contact the responsible school or department or contact information is provided in the course description letter. Syllabi may only be requested with the responsible school or department.
Requests for course descriptions can be made through our online Course Description Request form. Processing course descriptions is performed on first-come-first-served basis. Every attempt is made to process and email the request within two weeks.
Your request must include the following
- Your full name;
- Your student ID number;
- Your daytime phone number (in case the requester must be contacted);
- Email or postal address to which the course description(s) should be sent;
- Title of course(s);
- Department code(s) and course number(s);
- Semester and year the course(s) was/were taken.
