The schedule and format of these packets differed from program to program, and content varied with each student-faculty correspondence.

The board ensured that all students' work was in compliance with the college's degree criteria. Undergraduates had to complete a yearlong Senior Study, accompanied by final graduating presentations of work, before being awarded a degree.
