Several of the policies refer to the Arizona Board of Regents Policy Manual, the complete and official body of policies for the governance and operation of the Arizona University System. This manual is in both HTML and PDF format.

Some ASU policies and procedures exhibits are in PDF format. Go to the ASU online Plug-In Center to access PDF files.

Online manuals replace the earlier paper editions, which are no longer produced. In accordance with Arizona public records laws and requirements, a printout of the online text at University Archives serves as the official record. To obtain copies of the archived policies, please send an e-mail to University Archives at archives@asu.edu stating the manual name, the policy number, and the posting date(s) desired.

Policies in electronic (HTML) format dating back to 1998, when the ASU system of administrative and academic policy manuals were first published on the ASU Web, are archived here. Policies are sorted by manual and manuals appear in chronologic order beginning with the most recent postings. Listings may be incomplete.

The ASU system of academic and administrative manuals is maintained by the University Policy Manuals Group, a part of the Office of the Senior Vice President and General Counsel.

You can review guidelines and schedules for submission of revisions here. The formatting style and coding template for the policies and procedures manuals appear here.
