ADDENDA TO THIS CATALOG

The Undergraduate Catalog is published each academic year in June prior to the fall semester. The provisions of the Undergraduate Catalog are not to be regarded as a contract between the student and the University of Maryland. The university reserves the right to change its policies, rules, regulations, requirements for graduation, course offerings, tuition, fees, other charges, or any other contents of this catalog at any time.

When necessary, the university will track changes to the Undergraduate Catalog in this addenda section:

• For addenda related to policies, rules, regulations, tuition, fees and general information, see General Addenda
• For addenda related to curricula (i.e., descriptions, learning outcomes, and requirements for majors, minors, and certificates), see Curricular Addenda

Note: Updates to course offerings (e.g., course description changes), will be reflected in the following year's catalog and are not tracked in this addenda section.

This section contains addenda related to policies, rules, regulations, tuition, fees and general information. Each addendum contains an excerpt from the catalog as it was originally published as well as the change that was made. To view the full original text, see the catalog page referenced in the addendum.
