# Delete a catalogue program

DELETE https://unsw-v6-dev.advance-uac.com/institution-api/institution/catalogue/programs/{code}/{year}

Removes the program from the institution's catalogue, along with its curriculum tree and every
external id recorded against it, which frees those ids for another program.

This touches the CATALOGUE only: if an assessable program was previously derived from this
entry it is left in place, and applications already submitted against it are unaffected.
