E-Policy


The University of Connecticut established a University Policies E-Library to provide a central location for posting all University policies and procedures.  This site contains many, but not all, of the present official policies of the University. 

What is a University of Connecticut Policy?

A University policy is an official statement expressing the position of the University on an issue of institution-wide importance. A policy guides the decisions and actions of the institution and is consistent with its mission. As such it meets the following criteria:
Quick Links
  • It has been sanctioned by the administrative authority of the University and its governing boards.
  • It has a broad institution-wide application.
  • It is a governing principle for both established and future activities of the University.
  • It exists to ensure consistency in University practice to conform with the University's mission and goals, Federal and State legislation, collective bargaining agreements, and other legal requirements.

If a policy fits these criteria, it is a University policy. If it does not, it is a departmental, office, or unit policy or guideline.

How does a policy get posted in the E-Policy Library?

Anyone wishing to post a policy in the E-policy Library should:

1.   Submit policy to the Department Head for approval.

2.  Once the policy has been approved by the Department Head, it should be submitted to the department’s designated E-Policy Editor for review.

a. Policies approved by the E-Policy Editor will be forwarded to the E-Policy Approver.
b. Unapproved policies will be returned.

3.   Approved polices will then be posted to the E-Policy Library.
