Every faculty should fill out this form whether they have reassigned time or not.

Subsequent requests after the first should include a list of accomplishments that were achieved because of previous reassigned time. Fall requests are due no later than May 1. Spring requests are due no later than Sep 1. Direct any questions to the COAS Business Manager.
