Policy Gazette

The Policy Gazette is the official online repository for all university policies and associated procedures currently in effect at SFU.

The Office of the General Counsel oversees the development and regular review of policies that are within the Board of Governors' jurisdiction and their associated procedures, and the Office of the University Secretary maintains the archive of university policies. 

Policies are organized by categories based on subject area and the office responsible for oversight. Browse the categories below to find current policies, and access related procedures and supporting documents.
