The administrative history of the Faculty of Education's Admissions Committee is not well-established. It was originally a sub-committee of the faculty's Professional Programs Committee and was established sometime between 1972 and 1976 to advise the Director of Professional Programs on student admission. In 1978 it became a standing committee of the faculty in its own right with a broadened mandate to consider and make recommendations to the faculty on all matters relating to admission of candidates to the PDP and Bachelor of Education degree programs; execute and monitor faculty and university polices and procedures regarding admission matters; and act as the first review level for admission candidates' appeals in the event of disputes. Membership consisted of the Chair (elected faculty member), the Dean, the Directors of Professional Programs and Undergraduate Programs, and individuals elected from faculty (two), PDP students (one) and faculty associates (one). The committee was dissolved some time between 1989 and 1994 (it appears on the annual "Committees of the Faculty of Education" lising in 1988-89, but not on the next extant one from 1994/95).
