What is the purpose of form PS-042R, Summary of Changes?
TWC must be notified of all changes and revisions.
The PS-042R must be submitted with the New or Revised Application to outline a summary of all changes to the original program.
You would need to submit the PS-042R and a summary of changes for any changes made to the catalog either program revisions or some other items. Remember the PS-042R is TWC's way of making sure that these are authorized changes.
The purpose of the PS042R, is to give a quick list of changes to a catalog so that the reviewer may easilier access what is new and what is not.
There are several purposes for the PS-042R. Among these are:
1. A quick summation of requested changes to guide the TWC in the review process.
2. A checklist for the presenting school to ensure that all changes and required documentation are included with the file.
3. Accountability for the submitting party as they are signing to attest to the accuracy and completeness of the requested changes.
The PS-042R also ensures that the changes are authorized by the appropriate school official. It prevents just anybody making changes.

Hi Frank:
Yes but I also think it protects TWC and the institution so everyone is working from the same information.

The purpose of the form PS-042R, Summary of Changes is to ensure the changes to the program are beneficial to students, if approved. The form PS 042R provides TWC the revisions and changes the institution is applying for that should enhance the program.
This form also provides an important historical record of changes. For example, if one cohort of students starts under an existing catalog and another cohort starts under a revised catalog, the form might help document the date the changes were made and which catalog applies to which group of students.
I agree, as consistency is vital.
This is correct, as the changes must be timely, include all required information and improve what currently exist.

Penalties may result for failure to report said changes such as graduation requirements, attendance polices, tuition/fees, etc. A copy of the entire new version of the catalog and addendum must accompany the PS042R when it is submitted to TWC. Always notarize the form and sign in blue ink.
The purpose of the PS - 042 R, summary of changes form is to ensure that TWC is informed of the latest changes of the school's catalog.
That is one of the reasons. The main reason for the PS-042R is to ensure that this is an official change and not an unauthorized change. You notice that the form must be notarized.

If a school introduces homework assignments into an existing program, do the institution need to complete a Program Revision App? The clock hours and curriculum remain the same.
