Our Undergraduate Handbook gathers into one place most of the departmental information that our majors and minors will need throughout their careers, and that our faculty will need in order to advise them and supervise their studies. It is intended to function as a guide to departmental resources, policies, procedures, and requirements. We hope that you will use it to learn more about us and about our programs.

In addition to the most current release, departmental Undergraduate Handbooks from earlier years are archived here. Important additional information on university curricula and requirements is also available in the "Key Info" area of the sidebar.

Remember that the handbook you should use as a student is the one that was in effect or released the year that you began your studies at Catholic University.  2025-26 has not yet been released but will be available soon.  Please note that there are important changes for 2025-26 from the prior version of the B.A. curriculum; the online curriculum here on the website is up-to-date and correct, and should be followed.
