Policies and Procedures
We require all participants to read the policies and procedures that govern their participation in an Arcadia University College of Global Studies program. We also require all participants to sign an Intent to Enroll Form indicating their understanding and acceptance of Arcadia University’s policies and procedures.Intent to Enroll Form
In order to reserve your place in the program, Arcadia University requires you to complete the Intent to Enroll form with 10 days of receiving your acceptance. If we do not receive your form within 10 days, Arcadia University will give your place in the program to another participant.
Student Handbook
All students should read the Student Handbook, which provides a detailed description of the regulations and policies, including: the Academic Contract; Disclosure of Student Records and Biographical Data; Credits, Grades and Transcripts; Code of Academic Responsibility; Code of Conduct; Policies regarding Discrimination, Harassment, Sexual Offenses, Alcohol and Drugs, and Technology Abuses; and the Housing Policy.
Refund & Withdraw Policies
Our Financial Information section of our website explains our refund policies on housing and early withdraw from an Arcadia University program.
Property Damage and Outstanding Accounts
You are responsible for any damage to your residence or other property. Arcadia University will add any damage or cleaning charges to your account. All outstanding charges (including overdue library fees, cleaning fees and damage charges) must be paid in full before Arcadia University will release your academic records.
Admissions Process
In general, you should have completed three semesters of undergraduate study by the time your program begins, although some programs are available to students who have less than three semesters of study. Most programs require a minimum of a 3.0 grade point average on a 4.0 scale, but each host institution establishes its own GPA requirements. As a result, these requirements range from 2.5 to 3.6 on a 4.0 scale.
Please be aware that both Arcadia University and your overseas program reserve the right to rescind their offer of acceptance should you fail to maintain the minimum cumulative GPA required for acceptance to the program, should your behavioral conduct warrant such an action, or should your home institution withdraw its approval for your participation.
