g) Phase Out Program. A phase-out program should be anticipated in the implementation of new
or revised programs.

If the new program is designed to replace an existing curriculum, the
implementation should start from the incoming freshmen only and the old curriculum
should end with the graduation of the current students taking it.

In the revised courses, the compulsory requirement for students for the
introduced/revised courses should start only in the current year they are supposed to
take course. In no case shall the introduced/revised courses be required as back subjects
for students.
h) Schedule of Revision/Introduction of New Courses. Unless the revision or introduction of new
required course is a mandatory requirement by CHED, no revision on any curriculum og the
University shall be made within five (5) years of its implementation.

PROGRAM ACCREDITATION

The University shall as much as possible, submit all programs for accreditation particularly by
the Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities in the Philippines (AACCUP) or any
accrediting agency prescribed by CHED and the Philippines Association of State Universities and Colleges
(PASUC)

Relevant to this, the University President shall form a local University-wide accrediting body to
be headed by the Director for Quality Assurance and Accreditation. It is the duty of this body to prepare
for accreditation of programs, including review and inspection of documents (local accreditations) and
schedule accreditations visits.

The University may tap the services of other accrediting institutions or other outside agencies
