Section III: Terms of Enrollment
ACU and the Learner agree to be bound by terms, policies, and procedures as outlined in the ACU catalog, policy manuals, and other such documents as may apply.
This agreement binds ACU and the Learner to the terms and conditions in force as of the day of your enrollment. Such terms and conditions may be altered only by mutual consent.
A. Designation of Programs and Courses.
The Learner will become enrolled in ACU and will gain access to ACU’s programming and resources. The Learner will be considered a candidate for the degree for which she or he has applied to ACU. The Learner agrees to participate with ACU in the development of an official Degree Completion Plan.
Courses offered under this Agreement shall include those for which credit may be applied toward the degree for which the Learner is enrolled in ACU.
ACU agrees, upon fulfillment of the Degree Completion Plan, to award the degree for which the Learner applied..
B. Learner Access to Ames Christian University Systems
The Learner agrees to provide ACU with a unique user identification (ID) which will then be provided on the Student Enrollment Agreement for our records. This ID will then be used each time a Learner registers for a course according to the Learner’s Degree Completion Plan after payment has been made. It can be a number or word, less than 10 letters. This provides positive student identification to ACU making the courses available to the Learner and allows the Learner to receive the courses from the course delivery system. It is the equivalent of a legal signature and creates the same obligations for the Learner.
Learner will be responsible for any and all future registrations, commitments and content generated via email and is expected to submit all such contents with the learner ID. Learners are responsible for requesting each course at the end of each 90-day period.
All transactions on the ACU Website and systems constitute official records recognized by the institution. All appeal decisions related to policy or procedure will be based on the Website and system transaction records.
