a short distance from the campus of ACU. The two institutions cooperate in such a
way that the course offering in one supplements the offering of the other, so that
students in both have an opportunity to secure a greater variety of courses. Courses in
Hardin-Simmons University, up to one-third of the number required, can be counted
as residence credit at ACU, if approved by the Graduate Dean and departmental
advisor.
The libraries of the three institutions of higher education in Abilene (Abilene
Christian University, Hardin-Simmons University, and McMurry College) are
available to all students of the three institutions, thus affording augmented library
facilities to the students of each.
Expenses and Student Aid
Abilene Christian University is a non-profit institution. All funds received from
student charges are spent for student services.
Specific information concerning scholarships, loans, part-time work, and other
forms of financial aid are detailed in the catalog section entitled Financial Aid.
Questions should be directed to Financial Aid Officer, ACU Station, Box 8228,
Abilene, Texas 79699.
Payment of Accounts
Regular terms of payment of tuition, fees, board and room are cash in advance for
the semester for the full amount. If paid in installments, the first installment of not less
than one-fourth must be paid on registration day before completion of registration.
Accounts paid on installments will be subject to 5/6 of 1% monthly interest (10%
annually) on the unpaid balance. The interest charged will be based on the previous
balance less the payments made that month. Installment payments will be due on the
following dates:
FALL SEMESTER SPRING SEMESTER
Registration Day Registration Day
October 1 February 15
November 1 March 15
December 1 April 15
If payment must be made in any other way than the above, special arrangement
should be made in advance of registration with the director of student accounts.
Charges for school expenses are made on the semester basis. A school month is
four weeks, a semester is 16 weeks, and a school year 32 weeks. Charges are made on
the basis of these periods and not on the basis of calendar months.
Deadlines for settling accounts are set at two weeks before the end of long session
semesters and one week before the end of summer terms. Accounts must be settled
before these dates to obtain clearance for examinations. One will not be permitted to
take examinations, receive grades, or to graduate from the university until after
satisfactory settlement of all financial accounts. Transcripts to other schools cannot be
released until all accounts are paid in full. (Exception is made for government loans if
they are not past due.)
Students may be withdrawn from school, at the discretion of the ACU
administration, for failure to make proper payment arrangements for indebtedness.
No refunds on tuition or fees are made for class absences.
After an official withdrawal from ACU through the Vice President for Student
Services or the official dropping of a class through the Registrar's Office, a refund on
tuition will be made based on the following schedules:General Information 13
