Program Review Schedule

This is the master schedule for Sonoma State faculty and staff, as well as the public, to find dates and deadlines for all undergraduate and graduate academic programs that are being reviewed on a regular basis. As you explore this comprehensive calendar, note that  this schedule is organized by school first, and alphabetical order second.

As of Fall 2021, program review uses a 7-year cycle. New programs are reviewed after five years and externally accredited programs have the option to align review with their accreditation cycle.

Please contact Academic Programs to request copies of program review documents beyond the ones included below.
