Supervised by the Vice President for Academic Affairs, this area of the College is concerned with academic requirements, curriculum, grade reporting, permanent academic records, academic advising, faculty recruitment and development, library services, and the evaluation of instruction. Since the educational experience is the focal point of a student's relationship with Louisiana College, the integrity of both the College and student is maintained by basic academic regulations. The Louisiana College Catalog serves as the primary resource on academic regulations. Contained in the Catalog are complete descriptions of requirements for admissions, plans of study, class attendance policies, the grading system, tuition expenses, courses of instruction, and definitive statements concerning academic processes.
The Office of Institutional Research is responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating institutional data to the Louisiana College community to support its' strategic planning, policy-making, and ongoing institution-wide evaluation processes.
The Office of Institutional Effectiveness is dedicated to providing leadership to the planning, implementation, administration, and evaluation of Louisiana College’s ongoing institutional effectiveness program.
