Admissions Procedures
Find guidance for application review, returning to your studies, course participation, withdrawal, and academic records. For program requirements and the application checklist, visit Admissions Requirements. Current forms and support are available through Student Resources.
Admission Decisions
The Admissions Committee makes an acceptance decision after the Admissions Office receives a completed application, applicable official transcripts verified by the Registrar, references, and fees. Applicants can expect notification within one week of their application being complete.
After an admission decision, applicants receive information about registration, finances, and new student orientation. Accepted students must complete an Enrollment Agreement before registering for courses.
Review the application checklist
Readmission
Readmission is required when a degree-program student's academic work has been interrupted for six months or more, or when a student is dropped or withdrawn from two or more courses concurrently.
Apply for readmission one month before your intended start date.
Sign a new Enrollment Agreement before returning to your program and resuming your studies.
If you completed college-level work elsewhere, include official transcripts with your readmission application.
If you return after one year out of attendance, complete the graduation requirements in the catalog in effect at the time of readmission.
Attendance
Attendance is tracked through participation in weekly Discussion Board threads and timely submission of weekly assignments. Students must participate in the Discussion Board at least twice a week with responses of at least 100 words. Late assignments are accepted only with prior notification by the student and permission from the instructor.
A student who has not participated in the Discussion Board, posted an assignment, or contacted the course instructor for two consecutive weeks will be withdrawn from the course. The student must then re-enroll during another session and complete the entire course. A grade of “Withdrawn” remains on the transcript until the student successfully completes the course and meets all attendance requirements.
Withdrawal from two or more courses concurrently requires an application for readmission. For the financial effects of withdrawal, review the payment, refund, and withdrawal policies.
Course Withdrawal
Students who wish to withdraw from a course must complete a Withdrawal Form and email it to the Registrar's Office. Students may withdraw within the first three weeks of a course. After the end of the third week, a student receives “Withdrawn” on the transcript unless the Registrar first approves the withdrawal.
Find the current withdrawal form and submission instructions in the university's withdrawal procedures. Simply stopping participation is not an official withdrawal.
Transcript Access
Unofficial transcripts may be requested at no charge. Official transcripts are released only after all financial obligations to Calvary Chapel University have been settled. Transcripts include university coursework, transfer credit, and prior experiential credit.
Use the Transcript Request page for the request form and processing instructions. The catalog also provides a request route within Populi: open your student profile, select the Student tab, then Transcript, Transcript Action, and Official Transcript Request.
