Audit Student Enrollment
Students who wish to audit a course should see the chair of the
department (of the course) on the first day of class in order to
request permission to audit the course. An approved request to
audit a course must be submitted to the Registrar's Office by
Friday of the second week of the long term or the equivalent
date of a summer term or intensive courses. Some courses are
not available as audit courses.
The fee for auditing a course is usually $35. However, certain
courses may have additional fees for auditors. Please check
with the department of the course offered.
Add/Drop Policy
During the add/drop period there is no penalty for adding or
dropping courses. Students may adjust their course schedule
during the add/drop period with a full refund of tuition and
fees. Courses dropped during this period will not appear on the
student's transcript. Refer to the Academic Calendar on the
Registrar's Office web site for specific dates for each term.
Late Registration
Registration ends on Friday of the first week of classes of the
fall and spring semesters. Students wishing to register for
classes after the first week must complete a Late Add Petition,
which must be signed by the course instructor, the student's
advisor, and the dean of the college in which the course is
taught. A late fee of $10 per course will be assessed for
students who add or change classes; a $50 late fee will be
charged for students who register for all of their classes after
the add/drop period.
During the summer term, students wishing to register for
classes after the class begins must complete a Late Add
Petition. A late fee of $10 per course will be charged.
Students who were not enrolled at ACU during the first week of
classes may not enroll after the last date of the add/drop period
without special permission.

Students enrolled at ACU may concurrently register for courses
at Hardin-Simmons University and McMurry University. The
three universities have entered into an agreement whereby
students who are matriculated in any one of the universities
may register for courses at the other universities. This isespecially helpful when a required course is not available at the
university where the student is pursuing his or her degree.
Courses taken by ACU students through intercollege
enrollment count toward degree requirements, provided
approval has been secured in advance. It is the student's
responsibility to make certain that courses taken through this
arrangement will satisfy his or her individual degree
requirements. (Courses taken under the intercollege agreement
are not considered as transfer courses.)
ACU students may take no more than 9 hours of classes
through the intercollege agreement each semester and must be
enrolled in at least 3 hours at ACU for that term.
Students taking courses through intercollege registration will be
charged ACU's current tuition rate. Billing is handled by the
institution in which the student is matriculated. Complete the
procedure that follows:
1. Obtain an Intercollege Enrollment form from the
Registrar's Office.
2. Secure approval signatures from the student advisor, the
department chair of the course, Student Financial Services
and the Registrar's Office.
3. Take the completed form to the Registrar's Office of the
university where the course is taught to register.
Students from either Hardin-Simmons University or McMurry
University who wish to enroll in ACU hours need to first see
the registrar's office at their institution. Students will receive
a form granting permission to take courses at ACU. This form
should be brought to the ACU Registrar's Office, where the
student will be processed and registered in the appropriate
courses.
Post-Enrollment Transfer Credit
Students who are enrolled at ACU may receive credit for
courses taken at another institution, subject to the following
restrictions:
1. Obtain written approval on a Transfer Course Application
(TCA) before registering for the courses at another
institution. The chair of the ACU department that offers
the course must approve the TCA. If comparability is not
established through TCA approval prior to enrollment
in the course, the transfer credit may count as elective
credit only.
2. After being classified as a junior, a student may take no
more than 6 hours at a two-year college, not to exceed
66 hours.
3. After enrolling at ACU, students must observe the
following regulations:
* Take no more than one general education (University or
Degree Core) required course in English and history at
another institution.
* Due to the special nature of some science core
curriculum courses (e.g. BIOL 120, AENV 130) and
the mathematics core curriculum course MATH 120,
students may not find an equivalent course at another
institution.
* Credit will be posted at the level at which the course
was taken.29
