The University reserves the right to change the rules regulating admission to the institution and any other regulations affecting the student body or the granting of degrees.

The University also reserves the right to withdraw courses, to change its calendar, and to alter charges and fees as conditions may require. Such changes shall go into force whenever the proper authorities may determine and shall apply not only to prospective students but also to those who may, at such time, be matriculated in the University.

The University further reserves the right to refuse to release any student their transcript, grade report, or degree for failure to return University property or to pay any accounts due the University.

It is the policy of the University that no otherwise qualified handicapped individual be discriminated against on the basis of his or her physical or mental handicap, as covered under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, in admission to the University. All programs of the University are open to all regularly admitted students without regard to handicap. In the event that a student is enrolled in a course not accessible, the course will be moved to such location as will be accessible to handicapped students. Students with 504 plans should contact Academic Affairs, Colonial Hall. Any student, employee, or job applicant who has a complaint or grievance in regard to this matter should contact Dean of Students during regular office hours to make an appointment to have their grievance heard.
