As a reminder the University of California Office of the President's (UCOP) course submission period is from February 1st to September 15th every year. This means that we only have 15 days until the Course Management Portal closes for the year! Please submit your courses before the September 15th deadline to ensure that they are reviewed for the 2016-2017 year.

When activating an archived course, please remember that if the content is empty that you will need to add content to the course. If you archived the course for more than two years, you will be asked to make sure that the content in the course meets our current "a-g" subject area requirements. If you are unsure if your content meets the subject area requirements, please visit the UC A-G Guide.

A few tips to getting your UC Honors courses approved:

1. Please make sure that you follow all of the requirements of the subject area of choice.

2. Every subject area may have specific requirements that must be met in order to receive UC Honors approval. Make sure that you visit our UC A-G Guide website to review each subject area's honors requirements.

3. Every subject area requires that the course demonstrates that students are completing a comprehensive written final exam or a final project. Make sure that you write 2-4 sentences explaining the final exam or final project at the beginning or end of your course submission.

If your course is not approved, please be sure to review the analyst's comments. You can review the analyst's comments by following a few simple steps:

1. Log-in to the Course Management Portal
2. Click on "MY COURSES"
3. Once you're on the "MY COURSES" page click on "Results"
4. Click on the course title of the course that was not approved
5. Look to the right of the page and the comments from the analyst should appear with the title "Additional Feedback". Comments may also appear at the very top of the page under "Submission Feedback".

If you have a message asking for you to update your school's demographic information please review your school's information to ensure that the information provided is accurate. If there has been a transition between the head of the institution or the course list manager please e-mail us at hsartiuclation@ucop.edu so that we may update the new contact information.

As a reminder we will not be accepting retroactive petitions after September 15, 2016. This is to ensure the accuracy of course lists when students are applying to the University.
