- If changes are required, Faculty have 8 weeks to make the requisite changes and submit the course for further review. The Review Team will have 8 weeks to review the changes and determine if the course meets designation requirements. If no required changes are submitted by the Faculty, the review will be closed, and the Review Team disbanded.
