The ASAC invites all faculty to submit requests for instructional software, publicizing the process via letters, the CIO newsletter, Marketing & Communication’s campus update emails, and this ASAC website.

Faculty members (including Chairs and Directors) may submit unlimited online applications to request instructional software to be purchased. Each software product requested requires a separate application; all applications are made from the Application Form webpage. (See Submission Instructions.)  All applications must be submitted by 5:00 p.m. on February 15, 2008 (including applications submitted by Chairs or Directors.)

Chairs and Directors submit requests from their faculty to their Deans. No new applications may be submitted at this time. (See Submission Instructions.)

Deans rank and submit all requests in their college or school. No new applications may be submitted at this time. (See Submission Instructions.)

The ASAC reviews the applications and submits a final ranking to the CIO.

The Office of the CIO informs the Deans of their applications approved for funding.

Because the application process occurs only once per year, faculty are encouraged to foresee their need for the requested software well in advance of the time they need to use it. Pricing, licensing, and installation affect the date that software becomes available for use.
