Disclaimer Regarding Programs, Course Offerings, and Other Requirements

The Office of Graduate and Professional Studies presents in this publication the official policies, rules, regulations, programs, courses, and financial requirements of Elmira College’s Master of Science (MS) and Master of Science in Education (MSED) programs with all due care and accuracy. Although information in this Catalog is current as of the date of publication, unexpected changes may occur during the academic year. Consequently, the listing of a course or program in this Catalog does not constitute a contract or guarantee that the particular course or program will be offered during a given year.

The College will announce changes in financial requirements well in advance, and will implement new academic requirements so that no student will be penalized by them. At the same time, students are responsible for their own academic programs, and are expected to cooperate with College officials in ensuring that all requirements are being met. Elmira College does not guarantee that discontinued programs or majors will be available beyond a reasonable length of time for completion of the program or major from the date of discontinuance.
