Policies and Procedures
Policies at Montgomery College are adopted by the Board of Trustees and serve as statements of principle to inform decision-making and the conduct of College activities.
Procedures are issued by the College President and set forth action steps required to carry out a Board policy and/or a standard method for implementing actions.
Our official policies and procedures are segmented out into seven chapters.
