Academic Affairs and Student Success

UVM uses the CourseLeaf system to submit new course proposals and edit existing courses.

Course Action Forms must be fully approved and submitted to the Provost's Office by February 15 annually for inclusion in the next edition of the catalogue. Course actions that require the review of the Graduate College or the Catamount Core Curriculum Committee must be submitted to those bodies in time for their review and submission to the Provost’s Office by February 15.


To propose a new course or change an existing course:

  1. Navigate to the CourseLeaf Dashboard 

  2. Click the "Courses" card 

  3. Click "Propose New Course" OR use the "Search" box to find the course you need to edit

  4. Complete the form; if you need them, detailed how-to guides are located in the Office of the Provost Document Hub 

To approve a course action form:

  1. Navigate to the CourseLeaf dashboard 

  2. Click the "Workflow" Tab 

  3. Under “Role” Select your approver role (e.g., CAS Dean), not your name; if your approver role does not appear in the drop-down list there is NO Course Action Form awaiting your approval (if there are multiple approvers in a role, and there often are, another approver likely already approved the form) 

  4. Select the course for review/approval; if you need them, detailed how-to guides are located in the Office of the Provost Document Hub
