  • Step 7. F-1 Student Agreement

    This agreement should be signed by all new and transferring F-1 students.
  • NEW AND TRANSFERRING F-1 STUDENT AGREEMENT

    1. An applicant for F-1 Visa (Non-Immigrant Foreign Student Visa Status) understands that a decision about their visa application (or reinstatement of status) is at the sole discretion of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and agrees University is not responsible for the denial of status by DHS.

    2. In case of F-1 status denial, all tuition deposits are refundable in the form of a corporate check (issued in student's name) except for some administrative expenses and application fees. (See Degree Enrolment Agreement for details). To request a refund a signed and dated Tuition Refund Request Form must be submitted to the University. Refunds will be issued within 30 calendar days from the submitted refund request date by mail.

    3. In accordance with Student Exchange Visitor's Program (SEVIP) regulations, all F-1 visa students who enroll in Reformed University degree programs are required to maintain full-time student status (12 credit hours minimum - for Undergraduate programs and 9 credit hours minimum for Graduate programs) during Fall and Spring semesters.

    4. Failing classes academically, failing for non-attendance, falling the academic probation, breaching the terms of the Degree Enrolment Agreement, as well as breaching the Student Code of Conduct will result in student's administrative dismissal from the University. Reformed University takes NO responsibility for changes in student's legal status in the U.S. once the student's enrolment is terminated.

    5. An F-1 student is responsible for updating Reformed University and SEVIS with current and accurate information. This is done by submitting the Student Information Change Request Form to the Registrar's Office when changing address, phone number, marital status, financial support information, and/or dependent information.

  • Step 8. F-1 Student Transfer Request

    This form is completed by current F-1 students transferring to the Reformed University from another U.S. school. New students should skip this section.
  • F-1 STUDENT TRANSFER PROCESS

    1. An F-1 student who is out of status and applies for reinstatement or transfers from another school must go through the typical admission process, pay all applicable fees and meet all the required criteria for admission to the Reformed University.

    2. Acceptance into an Undergraduate or Graduate degree program is contingent on a student's ability to demonstrate proficiency in the English language. Reformed University does not guarantee acceptance into a degree program. Changing a degree program while studying at Reformed University requires a new application and repeating the admission process.

    3. All students accepted into a Degree Program at the Reformed University receive an official acceptance letter. If you have received such a letter and wish to begin your study at Reformed University your exiting F-1 status must be transferred to your new school.

    4. Please discuss the SEVIS transfer process and its effects on your legal status in the U.S. with your current school administration. This transfer will end Optional Practical Training (OPT) or Curricular Practical Training (CPT) automatically. Students who have an existing F-1 Visa and wish to transfer to another school in the U.S. must have their SEVIS record officially transferred from their current institution to the new institution (Reformed University) in order to receive an updated I-20 from the United States government. This is done by having your current school DSO (Designated School Official) complete F-1 Student SEVIS Record Transfer Form.

    REFUND POLICY

    After signing the enrolment agreement and making payment students can request a refund. A dated and signed Tuition Refund Request Form must be submitted to the Registrar's Office. The Office of Business Affairs considers refund requests and considers extenuating circumstances such as student injury, prolonged illness or death, or other circumstances which prohibit completion of the course or program of study. To calculate a refund Reformed University uses the date on which the student initiates the official withdrawal or drop process as a benchmark. The date is made official when Tuition Refund Request Form is received by the Registrar's Office. Refund amounts are based on the proration of tuition and the percentage of the program completed at the time of withdrawal. Once the Tuition Refund Request is received and recorded by the Registrar's Office the refund schedule is as follows:

    1. Within three (3) business days after the signing of the Enrolment Agreement: 100% of tuition and fees is refunded (except for non-refundable application fee)
    2. After three (3) days of the initial Enrolment Agreement and during the first week of a semester: 90% of tuition and fees (no fees will be refunded after this point).
    3. During the second week of a semester 80% of tuition
    4. During the third week of a semester 70% of tuition
    5. During the fourth week of a semester 60% of tuition
    6. During the fifth week of a semester 50% of tuition
    7. NO REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED AFTER THE FIFTH WEEK OF THE SEMESTER

    Most fees and charges for books and/or supplies are refundable with exception of the Application Fee and any items that were special ordered for a particular student or any third-party vendor costs. Refunds will be available within 30 calendar days of the refund request.


    STUDENT AFFAIRS / INTERNSHIPS / PRACTICUMS

    Though Reformed University does not guarantee job placement to its graduates the office of Student Affairs offers career counseling and informs students of employment opportunities in the community. Some degree programs contain internship and fieldwork requirements but all Reformed University students are eligible to receive help with career resources. Reformed University does not guarantee employment to graduates. 

    ACADEMIC CREDIT AND ATTENDANCE POLICY

    Academic credit for a course requires both academic work and regular class attendance. Class attendance means being present in the classroom for the entire scheduled class session, whether or not any class assignments are completed or not. Students tardy by more than 15 minutes are marked as absent for the hour. Three tardy records count as one absence. Online classes at Reformed University follow the same attendance policy as campus classes and require weekly substantive interaction and assignment submissions which counts as class attendance. All students attending on-campus and/or online classes are required to attend at least 80% of the class meetings for each course in which they are enrolled. This means that a maximum of three class sessions may be missed during the typical 15-week semester. Absences due to late enrolment or add/drop change are excused but still count as absences. Absences due to illness and medical emergencies will be excused but still count as absences. Students who miss more than 20% of the class sessions for any reason will not be able to pass the course, will receive an “F,” for non-attendance, and will be withdrawn from the course. Successfully completed assignments have no bearing on grades for students who fail due to non-attendance. Exceptions to these policies may be made only in documentable cases of extreme and extraordinary circumstances and only with the explicit approval of the Reformed University administration.

    I hereby affirm that I am entering into this agreement with the understanding of the terms contained herein.

  • Step 10. STUDENT DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

    1. I have received and read the Reformed University Catalog (http://runiv.edu/catalog) and Student Handbook (http://runiv.edu/handbook) and enroll in classes at Reformed University with full knowledge of the standards and practices of postsecondary education.

    2. I agree to pay the required tuition, fees, and any additional charges related to my education in a timely matter as required, and I have been advised of the University Tuition Refund policy.

    3. I understand that each student is responsible for all unpaid tuition or fees and incurred charges and interest expenses and will not be able to receive official documents including diplomas, certificates, or transcripts until such fees are paid in full. Students with past due accounts will not be able to matriculate until those accounts are settled.

    4. I understand that all coursework required for credit at Reformed University must be my own work, and I am obligated to follow the University Code of Conduct or face disciplinary action and possibly dismissal.

    5. I understand the Reformed University class attendance policy and the implications of non-attendance.

    6. I understand that Reformed University is a private postsecondary institution of higher learning licensed in the State of Georgia, an accredited member institution of the Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools (TRACS) and that the transfer of academic credits is left to the discretion of receiving institution(s).
    7. I understand that study at Reformed University is not a right but a privilege. I further understand that I may forfeit this privilege if I do not conform to the standards of academic work and student code of conduct at the Reformed University. An institution may insist on the withdrawal of any student at any time that if the student does not conform to the standards and foundations of the institution. I understand the student dismissal policy is outlined in the Reformed University Catalog.

    8. I am aware that Reformed University Catalog contains most current information regarding the University’s calendar, fees, admissions policies, degree requirements, regulations, and course offerings, and that Reformed University reserves the right to withdraw a course at any time; change tuition and other fees; revise the calendar and regulations regarding admission and graduation requirements, and revise any other regulations affecting the student body. Revisions become effective whenever the Board of Trustees and University administration so determine. All such changes apply not only to all incoming as well as matriculating students. The Reformed University staff are always available to explain any rules or policies.

    9. I understand that during my presence on campus and during participation in University activities images and/or videos of me (in a group or alone) may be captured by fellow students/staff and/or third parties. I release my rights to those images/videos and give permission for my likeness to be used in media and publications of the Reformed University.

    10. I understand that Reformed University is not responsible for my employment success and does not guarantee job placement upon graduation. I am aware that Theological and Divinity Studies offered by Reformed University do not guarantee employment or ministerial ordination and students are advised to research the requirements for such career paths within their own denominations.

    I acknowledge that have not been misled in my inquiry for enrollment with the Reformed University and therefore I hold the University harmless from any of my own misunderstandings.

  • Step 11. STATEMENT OF FAITH AGREEMENT

    Reformed University is an institution built on the foundations of historical Christian belief, ethics, and practice. All students, instructors, and staff members are required to understand and acknowledge this document.

    Reformed University holds firmly to the inerrancy of Scripture and to the Reformed Faith as summarized in the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms drawn up by the 1646 Westminster Assembly, as well as in the Apostle’s Creed. We believe:

    1. The Bible.  As the divine inspiration to atone for the sins of mankind, the infallible written Word of God, inerrant, and the primary standard for our faith; both the Old and New Testaments.

    2. God.  One true and living God, the Creator of all things, one eternal, transcendent, omnipotent, existing in three same Persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, but all of one essence and all having the same nature, perfections, and attributes, and each is worthy of precisely the same worship and obedience. God the Father, the first person of the Divine Trinity, is infinite Spirit - sovereign, eternal, and unchangeable in all His attributes who is eternally worthy of honor, adoration, and obedience.

    3. Jesus Christ.  The perfect, sinless humanity and the absolute, full deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, indissolubly united in one divine-human person since His unique incarnation by miraculous conception and virgin birth. In God's Son incarnation in flesh both in divine and human natures, in His miracles, in His atoning death on the cross for the sins of all to reconcile with our God, in His resurrection in three days, in His ascension from the grave to the right hand of the Father according to the Scriptures, and in His return in power and glory. We believe in the substitutionary and redemptive sacrifice of Jesus Christ for the sin of the world, through His literal physical death, burial, and resurrection, followed by His bodily ascension into heaven.

    4. Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead who convicts, regenerates, indwells, seals all believers in Christ who was crucified and resurrected to redeem our sins, and fills those who yield to Him. The Holy Spirit gives spiritual gifts to all believers, and in the present and active of the Holy Spirit in the world, by whom the gospel is proclaimed and the kingdom of God is manifested in the world. The Holy Spirit comes from God the Father and the Son and causes people to be saved and to realize their sin and misery, enlightens their hearts to know Jesus Christ, strengthens their will, encourages, empowers them, causes them to receive Jesus Christ and bear fruits of righteousness, and protects us until we enter into the eternal heaven.

    5. Historicity.  We believe in the full historicity and perspicuity of the biblical record of primeval history, including the literal existence of Adam and Eve as the progenitors of all people, the worldwide cataclysmic deluge, and the origin of nations and languages at the tower of Babel.

    6. The Church.  The Church, of which Christ is the head, is established by God to gather and to nurture the believers to grow into the body of Christ, which is the fullness of Him that fills all in all. This Church is the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ, the house and family of God, out of which there is no ordinary possibility of salvation. God has given the visible Church the ministry and the ordinances of God for the gathering and the perfecting of the believers.

    7. Salvation.  Personal salvation from the eternal penalty of sin provided solely by the grace of God on the basis of the atoning death and resurrection of Christ, to be received only through personal faith in His person and work.

    8. Last Things.  The future, personal, bodily return of Jesus Christ to the earth to judge and purge sin, to establish His Eternal Kingdom, and to consummate and fulfill His purposes in the works of creation and redemption with eternal rewards and punishments. Both the saved and the lost will be resurrected; the saved unto the resurrection of life and the lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

    9. Creation.  God created man according to His image, in knowledge, righteousness, and holiness, and made them to rule over the other creatures. Adam, the first man, sinned by disobedience. This act resulted in the fall of mankind and incurred both physical and spiritual death for all. We believe the triune God created the universe apart from pre-existing materials and without any evolutionary process, the creation of the existing space-time universe and all its basic systems and kinds of organisms in the six literal days of the creation week.

    10. Satan.  We believe in the existence of a personal, malevolent being called Satan who acts as tempter and accuser, for whom the place of eternal punishment was prepared, where all who die outside of Christ shall be confined in conscious torment for eternity. We believe that Satan was originally created a perfect being. He rebelled against God. As a result, he became depraved, the Devil and adversary of God and His people, and leader of a host of angels who fell with him. Satan has been judged and defeated at the cross and awaits his ultimate doom at the Second Advent of Jesus Christ.

    I hereby acknowledge these spiritual foundations and agree to respect these beliefs. I promise not to dispute these faith tenents or work against these values while enrolled at the Reformed University.
