University Policy Memorandums (UPM)

A University Policy Memorandum (UPM) is an official document issued to communicate, clarify, or update policies and procedures. These memorandums are used to provide important information to faculty, staff, and students, typically addressing administrative, academic, or operational guidelines that must be followed. UPMs help ensure consistency, compliance, and clear understanding of the university’s policies.
