When academic programs or program elements (minor, endorsement, concentration, track, emphasis, pre-licensure program) are eliminated, affected students will be notified by Bethel. The university will establish a teach-out schedule with a date for when classes in those programs or program elements will no longer be offered. After the teach-out is announced, no new or current students may enroll in or declare the program or program element in teach-out. Students should seek to complete all requirements during the teach-out period. Students who have not completed all requirements have two academic years beyond the end of the teach-out period to complete any remaining requirements through approved transfer courses.  All transfer courses must comply with published transfer policies. Theses, dissertations, and capstone projects must be completed at Bethel within two academic years after the teach-out period. The end of that two-year period is the date on which the program or program element officially ends and degrees or credentials will no longer be granted.
