Policies and Procedures

Below you will find lots of information, policies, and suggestions, all part of the accumulated insights and experiences by the deans and advisors who spend much of their time working with College students. Make frequent and liberal use of it all but never lose sight of the simple observation that your success lies not in what your classmates are doing, nor in their backgrounds, but rather in the degree to which you are prepared to think clearly about your education and your readiness to act in your own best interests.

Archived policies and procedures can be found at the Archive of U.Va. Records.
