Vermont State Colleges Policies & Procedures
I. Introduction
The Board of Trustees of the Vermont State Colleges adopts policies for implementation, and the Chancellor promulgates procedures to conduct the business of the VSCS system.
Policy development and implementation is a continuous and evolutionary process. It should be anticipated that additional policies and procedures will be added to this page and existing policies will be modified or abandoned as needs and circumstances require. To maintain its usefulness, changes to this page will be made as policies and procedures are revised, added, or removed.
II. Organization of Policies
This Policies and Procedures page contains operative VSCS Board policies adopted by the Board and procedures promulgated by the Chancellor in five major areas: Academic Affairs, Personnel, Student Affairs, Business/Financial Affairs, and General Policies. The policies and procedures posted here supersede prior policies and procedures.
The policies and procedures are grouped into the following classifications:
100: Academic Affairs
200: Personnel
300: Student Affairs

Each policy is assigned an identification number within the appropriate classification series. The pages of each policy, and any related procedures, are numbered. Inquiries about policies and procedures and interpretations as to their applicability should be directed to the Office of the Chancellor.
