A Message

From The

President

Crandall University is developing a reputation as a university that is raising

their profile considerably every year by increasing their student enrolment. One

of my friends within the field of education shared with me that Crandall

University is the “hidden gem” within New Brunswick which is finally being

recognized for the excellent programs it offers and the graduates it is producing

each year. Crandall is steeped in many years of rich history and tradition and

even though there has been many changes over the past years it remains a

private, faith based-based university which has at its stated mission of

transforming lives through “quality university education firmly rooted in the

Christian faith,” therefore developing well rounded students – intellectually,

spiritually and socially.

Crandall’s professors are highly qualified Christian scholars who not only model

academic integrity, but also develop relationships with students as their mentors

and friends. These sorts of relationships have a long term impact upon students

which is what you will remember in the years ahead.

Crandall not only strives to provide a high quality education which prepares

graduates for successful careers, it also enables students to discover and develop

within themselves the gifts and talents God has provided each one of them. We

trust that as a student at Crandall you will feel both challenged and cared for as

you share in a community where everyone has the freedom to grow in

knowledge, wisdom and grace.

Andrew K. Hopper, B.Sc., B.Ed., M.Ed

GENERAL INFORMATION

History

In the late 1940s, the United Baptist Convention became concerned about the

young people who were leaving Atlantic Canada for a Bible college education. In

spite of the fact that the denomination had a University in Wolfville, NS, there

was an area of Christian education which was not being covered. In 1949, the

United Baptist Bible Training School was founded in Moncton as both a Bible

college and a high school. For the next two decades, young people came from all

over Atlantic Canada to study in a Christian context and to live in a Christian

community.

Academic excellence very quickly became a hallmark of the new school, and

many people gave sacrificially to expand the facilities and the programs. Dr.

Myron Brinton left a successful pastorate to guide the fledgling institution for

most of its first decade. His sense of family and Christian commitment set the

stage for much of its tradition.

By 1968, the School was in transition as the emphasis changed to a post high

school program. It became a Bible College and a Christian Junior Liberal Arts

College. In 1970, the name was changed to Atlantic Baptist College to reflect the

new programs. Throughout this period, the President, Dr. Stuart E. Murray, sought

to build a strong faculty and to provide a broadened selection of courses.

In 1983, the New Brunswick Legislature passed a charter granting Atlantic

Baptist College, the right to offer baccalaureate degrees. Over a decade later, in

1996, the original Act of the Legislature was amended to change the name to

Atlantic Baptist University. This was done to reflect the continued growth and

development of the University as evidenced by the granting of degrees in a variety

of disciplines, including Arts, Science, Business, and Education.

In 2008, and in 2010, slight amendments to the Act were made, first to extend

the provision of degrees beyond the baccalaureate level, and second to change the

name to Crandall University in honour of Joseph Crandall, who founded several

Baptist churches in the greater Moncton area during the late 1800s. This new

name was also presented as a way to more clearly offer an invititation to Christian

students and supporters who were not from a Baptist tradition.

12 General Information Crandall University

Mission Statement

The mission of Crandall University’s administration, faculty & staff is to

transform lives through:

Quality university education firmly rooted in the Christian faith.

This mission is accomplished through the following:

1. Teaching in the liberal arts, sciences, and professional studies that

involves these characteristics:

a) A student-centered approach that focuses on learning rather than

delivery of information only;

b) A commitment to holistic growth of the person: spiritual,

intellectual, personal/social, and physical well-being;

c) The teamwork of outstanding and dedicated staff, faculty,

administrators, and Board members;

d) The development of a unified and caring community wherein

participants are sensitive to the needs of each other, encourage

each other in character formation, leadership skills, and the

integration of faith and learning whereby they are prepared for

future positions of influence and leadership in the service of God’s

Kingdom;

e) An openness to persons of every race, colour, gender, and creed

who choose to become part of the community of Crandall

University.

2. Research by faculty that includes but is not limited to the following:

a) Expanding knowledge within the scholar’s discipline;

b) Maintaining a standard of excellence that affirms the University’s

commitment to academic integrity;

c) Advancing the integration of faith and learning through

scholarship and publications that evaluate theories/conclusions in

light of a Christian worldview.

This mission is the driving force behind everything at Crandall. Recognizing the

lordship of Jesus Christ over all creation, the university operates with an overarching

commitment to students, to the church, and to community. As a private university,

Crandall is committed to the wise use of the human, financial, and physical resources

that God entrusts through the churches of the Convention of Atlantic Baptist Churches

Page 13: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University General Information 13

plus a variety of corporate, church, and individual partners supportive of higher

education within a Christian context.

Philosophy of Education

The purpose of a liberal arts education is to expose students to the range of human

experience, to introduce them thoroughly to a given major, and to teach each one to think

and write creatively, clearly, and critically. For this to happen there must be a point of

view, a defined position from which to view and compare life. The worldview at

Crandall University is Christian. While there is considerable diversity of opinion among

both the faculty and student body regarding various theological emphases, all are united

in the conviction that life, to be seen clearly and holistically, must be viewed in the light

of God's saving action in an individual’s life through the death and resurrection of Jesus

Christ. This foundation provides a significant alternative to university education based

upon secular and materialistic faiths.

This is not to suggest that students will be allowed to coast through their educational

experience by offering platitudes about faith. The philosophy of education at Crandall

University is that the only adequate response to Christ is a life of sacrificial commitment

to His service and praise whereby individuals strive for excellence. This must include

diligence in academic work. Students are challenged to realize their potential

academically to be good stewards of the intellect God has given them. Whether in

wrestling with concepts in Anthropology, writing a term paper for English Literature,

learning the principles of strategic planning, or studying for a Science exam, students are

encouraged to give their best as praise to God.

Students are also challenged to integrate their learning into a holistic understanding

of life as part of preparation for service to the world for which Christ died. Knowledge

cannot exist in isolation from experience. In this process of integration, the faculty play a

crucial role in the lives of students as they seek to point the way insofar as they have

understood it. The faculty challenge students to understand and accept responsibility for

their own worldviews, professing the lordship of Christ over all knowledge and activity.

Educational philosophy finds its expression in curriculum. In this regard, Crandall

University has instituted a core of required courses which are crucial to the task of

coming to terms with one's worldview. As well, students must select courses from a

number of areas with the aim of exposing them to a variety of disciplines and the insights

therein. Finally, all first degree (excluding degree completion) students at Crandall

University must take a minor in Religious Studies. This knowledge of the biblical

witness to God's activity in the world is crucial to shaping a Christian worldview as well

as preparing for a life that honours God. To help emphasize the importance of this focus

from the outset of their studies, all first degree students at Crandall University are

Page 14: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

14 General Information Crandall University

required to register in at least one required Religious Studies course in their first semester

for at least the first two weeks of the semester.

This combination of a demanding academic program and the challenge to act

justly, to love mercy, to walk humbly with our God has resulted in many

graduates of Crandall investing their lives in a wide range of activities for the

good of society and the glory of God.

Christian Lifestyle

Students at Crandall University join a community where a desire to know and

be known by God translates into a life of spiritual devotion and service.

Expressions of such include chapel attendance, participation in a local church,

volunteer involvement with a church or community service program, acceptance

of responsibility for personal behavior, and the search to develop relationships of

integrity. The goal is to bring honour to Jesus Christ in everything.

Guidance in the definition of this inviting community and in behaviour

consistent with the Christian mission and values of the University is provided by

the department of Student Development. Opportunities for growth in

understanding the Christian life as well as in areas of personal development are

available through the services of this department. For example, students may join

a Bible study, a prayer group, or a missions interest group. In these and other

ways the campus community becomes known as one that fosters developomental

experiences while expressing the love of Christ in everything.

Students need not be Christian to attend Crandall University, but they must be

willing to accept the obligations which are part of being a member of this

community. These obligations are academic, social, and personal. Whether on

campus or off, all students are expected to conduct themselves as is becoming to

Christian adults and the University of which they have chosen to be a part.

Faculty

Crandall University full-time faculty are well equipped to teach in their chosen

fields. The addition of qualified adjunct and part-time faculty contributes to a

community in which diversity of background is balanced by a common purpose.

All faculty members are involved in their local churches and in various civic

organizations. This belies the ivory tower image of university professors. They are

also active in their professional fields where they demonstrate a continuing

concern for growth in their given disciplines through memberships and service.

Page 15: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University General Information 15

Faculty affirm the mission of the University by intentionally integrating their

Christian worldview in the teaching of their various disciplines.

In addition, whether for academic advisement or a sympathetic ear for a personal

problem, faculty seek to make themselves available to students on an individual

basis. Either inside or outside the classroom, faculty seek to affirm the worth of

students as created and loved by God.

George A. Rawlyk Library

The library is in many respects the intellectual and academic centre of every

university campus. The George A. Rawlyk Library of Crandall University, named

in honour of the late Dr. George A. Rawlyk, History Professor of Queen’s

University, is no exception. Dr. Rawlyk was a friend and contributor to Crandall

University, donating much of his personal library. Students are encouraged to

familiarize themselves with the available services and resources as part of their

academic experience at Crandall University.

Governance

Crandall University was founded by the Convention of Atlantic Baptist

Churches, which continues to support the University and ratifies appointments to

its Board of Governors. The University is responsible to provide to its

constituency quality education for Christian leaders of tomorrow.

Crandall University, as a corporation, is controlled by a Board of Governors

elected annually from among the supporters of the University. The Senate of

Crandall University determines all academic standards and is comprised of the

President of Crandall University, the Vice President for Academic Affairs,

members of faculty, the Librarian, plus representatives of the student body, the

alumni, the Board of Governors, the Convention and the Registrar (Secretary of

Senate).

Accreditation

In Canada there is no formal organization that accredits universities and

colleges, but the concept of accreditation is practiced. It is based on the

acceptance of postsecondary studies by Canadian Universities and Colleges,

where the work completed meets criteria of faculty competence, standards of

instruction, and standards of student achievement practiced by the major

universities in Canada. Based on these standards, Crandall University graduates

consistently achieve a high level.

Page 16: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

16 General Information Crandall University

Crandall University is an affiliate member of The Council of Christian

Colleges and Universities, an association of approximately 175 Christ-centered

colleges and universities of the liberal arts and sciences with member schools in

26 countries around the world. The Council is committed to cultivating

communities of educational excellence in which the lordship of Jesus Christ is

central. Member colleges are committed to maintaining the highest academic

standards in an environment which fosters spiritual growth. Over thirty

denominations are represented in the Council, enriching the common fellowship

with diversity. Working together, Council member colleges and universities

accomplish things they could not do alone. (See the “Programs of Study” section

which outlines the academic opportunities available to students at Crandall

through CCCU.)

Crandall University maintains its official recognition as a degree-granting

institution based on its formal arrangments with the Province of New Brunswick

through an Act of the New Brunswick Legislature. In addition, there is a strong

on-going collegial relationship with all its sibling universitities within the Atlantic

Provinces and an expanding and ever improving connection with other academic

institutions and professional associations throughout Canada and the United

States.

Crandall University has become known for its academic excellence and the

integrity of its graduates. With the increasing number of degree programs and the

abilities of its faculty members, the reputation of the University continues to grow.

Educational Outcomes

Crandall University strives towards these educational outcomes:

prepare students to contribute to the Church's mission, whether

through individual or corporate action in their various professions, in

further study or research, in family or community life, or in whatever

field of endeavour God may call them to;

assist students to develop, to their fullest potential, the capacities of

analysis, synthesis, problem-solving, research, and communication;

ensure that students understand the basic forms of human knowledge

and the variety of possible approaches to acquiring and using that

knowledge;

prepare students for graduate study, advanced undergraduate study,

lifelong learning, and leadership;

Page 17: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University General Information 17

ensure that students have developed a spiritual maturity

encompassing all areas of life and that they are able to contribute to

the building up of the church.

Statement of Faith

1. God: There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and

Holy Spirit. In the Godhead these three persons are equal and united in

essence and perfection. They execute distinct but harmonious offices in the

great work of redemption.

a) God is Father to all people in the general sense of Creator and Sustainer

of the universe. He has fatherly compassion for all humanity. God is Father,

in a personal sense, to all who profess faith in His only begotten and unique

Son, Jesus Christ.

b) Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh; we affirm His virgin birth,

sinless humanity, divine miracles, vicarious death once for all time, bodily

resurrection and ascension, mediatorial work before the Father, and the

blessed hope of His personal return in power and glory.

c) The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead who proceeds from

the Father and the Son. The Holy Spirit convicts humanity of sin,

righteousness, and God’s judgement; calls people to repentance and faith in

Jesus Christ, indwells and enables the believer to live a holy life; and

empowers the believer to witness and to work for the Lord Jesus Christ.

2. The Scriptures: The Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments have

their authority from God alone and are given to us by divine inspiration.

They are the only perfect, supreme, infallible, and sufficient standard for all

matters of faith and conduct. They have been carefully preserved by the

providence of God through the work of faithful believers.

3. Humanity: Humanity was created sinless. By the disobedience of the first

man and woman, sin entered the human race. Through this disobedience all

humanity is born sinful, under the curse of condemnation and death, in need

of repentance and forgiveness.

4. Salvation: The salvation of lost and sinful humanity is possible only through

the merits of Jesus Christ and His substitutionary death on our behalf.

Salvation must be received through repentance and faith, and it is apart from

works. It is characterized by regeneration by the Holy Spirit.

Page 18: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

18 General Information Crandall University

5. The Church: The Church consists of all true believers in the Lord Jesus

Christ. The Bible also identifies the local Church as an assembly of baptized

believers organized for worship, discipleship, outreach, and service to others

for God.

6. Resurrection and Judgement: There will be a general resurrection of the

bodies of the just and the unjust. God will judge all humanity. Those who

are saved will live eternally in God’s presence. Those who are lost in sin will

receive eternal condemnation.

Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Management (Degree

Completion) Admission Requirements

This Degree Completion program is offered through the Adult Learners

Professional Studies (ALPS) division of the university. Pre-requisites for

admission include the completion of 30 to 60 credit hours from one or more

recognized post-secondary institutions. However, students who transfer in fewer

than 30 credit hours may be conditionally admitted until successful completion of

their first three courses. When fewer than 60 credit hours are transferred into

Crandall, the additional credits will – at some time prior to graduation – still need

to be made up to the total of 120 credit hours necessary for a Bachelor of Arts in

Organizational Management. In addition to the transfer of previous credit hours,

program admission further requires that applicants be age 21 or older and that they

be employed full-time.

Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Management (Degree

Completion) Application Procedure

An applicant who has become familiar with the program and has decided to

apply should take the following steps:

1. Complete and submit the Degree Completion Program Application for

Admission including the non-refundable $35 application fee.

2. Contact your previous post-secondary educational institutions (i.e.

college and/or university) to request your official transcript(s) be forwarded

directly to the attention of the Director or Program Administrator of the Adult

Learners Professional Studies Division.

3. Provide a detailed resume of previous, and current, post-secondary

education and employment experience.

4. Schedule a meeting with the Director or Program Administrator to

outline a tentative degree plan.

a. After official transcripts have been received, the Assistant

Registrar for Professional Studies will determine the number of credit hours that

are transferable, and what others need to be earned in order to complete the

degree. This will be documented on an audit sheet.

b. The Program Administrator will then respond in writing to

the applicant with the audit sheet attached. If the applicant is successful, an offer

of Enrolment letter will also be attached.

Students should forward all application materials to the address below:

When a student is accepted into the Bachelor of Arts in Organizational

Management (Degree Completion) program at Crandall University, a $250.00

non-refundable registration deposit is required to reserve a seat in the cohort for

which the application was made, usually the next cohort according to the set

schedule. Seats are secured on a first come first served basis.

Transfer Students

Students who want to transfer to Crandall University from another institution

must follow the application procedure stated previously. Both high school and

post-secondary transcripts are required when a transfer applicant has completed

post-secondary studies other than at the university level or with less than one year

of university studies. For all other applicants with university experience, only the

university transcript will be required. However, high school transcripts may be

required for certain programs. Failure to provide the required transcripts prior to

the end of the first semester may result in dismissal.

Once accepted, the student’s file will be evaluated by the Registrar’s Office

for possible transfer credit. Post-secondary courses taken elsewhere are eligible

for transfer credit provided the course complies with the standards established by

Crandall University for its own courses and the grade obtained by the student is a

pass in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding Between Atlantic

Canadian Colleges For the Encouragement of Transfer Agreements.

The University's Academic Standards and Appeals Committee serves as the

advisory board for situations warranting special consideration. Sometimes final

assessment is reserved until the transfer student has completed at least one

semester of full-time study at Crandall University.

The maximum number of hours accepted for transfer credit from other

institutions is 60 credit hours towards a degree of 120 credit hours. Within this 60

credit hour maximum, no more than 50% of a major is eligible for transfer

towards a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree, and no more than 50%

of required Business courses are eligible for transfer towards a Bachelor of

Business Administration degree.

Page 25: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University Admissions 25

The maximum number of hours accepted for transfer from another institution

is 15 credit hours towards a Bachelor of Education degree and 9 credit hours

towards the Advanced Certificates in Education.

Transfer credits are recorded on the transcript with credit value only. No

grade is recorded, and transfer credits are excluded from a student’s GPA.

Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate Programs

Crandall University grants university credit to students who have

demonstrated exceptional ability within either the Advanced Placement program

or the International Baccalaureate program. Students involved in either of these

programs, who have received scores of four or five on the Advanced Placement

Examinations, or scores of five, six, or seven on the International Baccalaureate

Examinations, may request an assessment for university credit up to a maximum

of 30 credit hours. For further information, contact the Registrar’s Office.

Part-time Students

Students who wish to complete an Arts, Business, or Science degree as a part-

time student must meet the admission requirements as well as follow the

application procedure previously stated.

Students who wish to study courses part-time but are not seeking to complete a

specific program may apply as Continuing Education students. Continuing

Education students must follow the application procedure previously stated.

However, standard admission requirements do not apply. Some courses may

require high school prerequisites. Please refer to the “Programs and Course

Descriptions” section of the Academic Calendar for more information.

Visiting Students

Upon receipt of a letter of permission from their institutions, visiting students

may be eligible to register for classes. Confirmation of prerequisite courses or

other academic documentation may be required. Please contact the Registrar’s

Office for further information.

26 Admissions Crandall University

Conditional Acceptance

Applicants who do not meet the standard admission requirements may be considered

for conditional acceptance. Upon admission, these students will be given conditional

acceptance status and expected to perform at the required academic level.

Students With Physical or Learning Disabilities.

Crandall University seeks to offer all students equal access to the educational

process. Therefore, students who have a diagnosed, preexisting physical or

educational disability must inform the Registrar’s Office if they require

accommodation for attendance, testing, participation in classroom, or laboratory

activities. Professional documentation that is current and that establishes the

nature of the disability and the recommendations for accommodations is required.

The university will accommodate the student to the extent that such

accommodations do not disadvantage or compromise the safety of other students

in the course and to the extent that all the learning objectives of the course can still

be achieved.

Students with disabilities are requested to contact the Registrar’s Office as

soon as they are accepted to the university in order to begin the accommodation

process. The complete details on University policy are available on the website or

from the Registrar’s Office.

International Students

Immigration Requirements For Students from the United States of America:

American citizens are able to apply for a Student Authorization (visa) at the

Canadian Immigration Office at the Canadian point-of-entry. Students must have

their original letter of acceptance from Crandall University (obtained once full

tuition is received for first year of study), as well as proof of sufficient funds for

all tuition and accommodations (bank statement, money order, etc.) All students

will also need formal proof of their American citizenship (passport or birth

certificate, and driver’s license with photo ID).

Immigration Requirements For Students From Other Countries:

Students who wish to study in Canada must attend to a number of important

matters before leaving their countries of origin. Since these preparations often take

Page 27: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University Admissions 27

a considerable period of time, students should begin the process well in advance

of their planned Enrolment date.

International students should contact the Canadian Embassy Consulate or High

Commission in their own countries to apply for a student visa, which is necessary

to enter Canada as a student. Immigration officials require presentation of both a

student visa and student authorization form. These documents are obtainable by

proof of official acceptance to Crandall University and evidence of sufficient

funds to live and study in Canada, including return transportation.

International students should also be aware that they are expected to comply

with the standard Canadian Health Code regulations as they pertain to

inoculations, etc. If the necessary inoculations have not been received prior to

arrival in Canada, they must be acquired within the first week of the students’

University residency. Any cost incurred in this area will be charged to the

students’ accounts. Medical insurance, to be purchased separately by the student,

is also necessary to cover potential illness or accidents. This Medical Insurance

must be purchased prior to arrival or during registration. All costs incurred are the

responsibility of international students and acceptance and registration are

contingent upon the purchase of approved insurance. Costs and information on

acceptable insurance plans are available through the Admissions Office.

Note: Typically, applicants with permanent resident status in Canada can follow

the General Admissions application process. However, applicants may be

required to demonstrate proficiency in the English language.

Language and Academic Requirements:

1. English language proficiency - All applicants must be proficient in both oral

and written English. Therefore, applicants whose first language is not English

must complete one of the five following tests: The Canadian Academic

English Language Assessment (CAEL) with a minimum score of 60; the

Michigan English Language Assessment Battery (MELAB) with a minimum

score of 80; the Canadian Test of English for Scholars and Trainees (CAN

Test) with a minimum score of 4.5; International English Language Testing

System (IELTS) with a minimum score of 6.5; or the Test of English as a

Foreign Language (TOEFL), achieving a score of at least 550 on the paper-

based test, 213 on the computer-based test, or 79 on the internet-based test. For

information regarding TOEFL examinations, times, and locations, write to the

Note: If international students have been studying in an English school system either

secondary or post secondary for three years or more including English 122, the english

language proficiency test requirement may be waived.

EAP option - Students who do not meet the requisite English language

proficiency but have a TOEFL score of 480 and meet all other admissions

criteria may be offered conditional admission to Crandall upon successful

completion of the EAP (English for Academic Purposes) program.

2. Certificate of Education - International applicants must achieve a recognized

state/government certificate of education. If such government certificates are

not available, applicants should contact the Admissions Office for alternative

means of admission qualifications. As with all applications, official transcripts

are required.

3. Advance Deposit - An Advance Deposit, equivalent to tuition, room, and

board for one year (excluding texbooks) and any other pertinent fees for the

year in which the student is applying (approximately $15,000.00 Canadian), is

due upon the applicant’s receipt of a conditional letter of acceptance from the

Admissions Office. Payment is necessary to maintain student immigration

status. Renewal of the students’ visas will require this same procedure with

fees due prior to the start of subsequent academic years. An official letter of

acceptance to Crandall University, which is necessary for immigration

purposes, will follow the Admissions Office’s receipt of the Advance Deposit.

If the student does not enroll at Crandall University, the deposit will be

refunded once written notification has been received.

Students register on a per-semester basis. When a student withdraws during a

semester for any reason, the portion of the tuition considered earned by the

University shall include that of the current semester (as textbooks and materials

are pre-purchased for the students at the outset). If a student withdraws from the

final course at the end of a semester, they will be responsible for the costs of the

first course of the following semester only (calculated on a pro-rated basis). The

date of withdrawal shall be the date on which the student completes and turns in

the appropriate Application for Withdrawal form (see Program Administrator).

Please note that there is $150.00 program withdrawal fee, for any reason, which

only contributes minimally to the financial cost already incurred with the pre-

purchase of textbooks.

the course with a subsequent cohort.

Students changing cohorts will be charged the $150.00 Change of Cohort fee.

Canada Student Loan Plan

The student loan assistance plan was authorized by the Government of Canada

in 1964 and provides loans through the chartered banks to Canadian students

studying towards a university degree. Loans are interest free until such time as

individuals are no longer registered in 60 percent of a normal course load.

Payments are negotiated with appropriate bank officials based on guidelines set

down by the Federal Government.

Provincial Loans and Bursaries may also be available for those students who

are considered eligible by the provincial representatives. Maximum benefits vary

from province to province.

Applications for federal loans and provincial loans and bursaries should be

B. Parent Plus Loan

Parent Plus Loan is a loan for educational costs of dependent students for

Disbursement of Loans

Satisfactory Academic Progress

All students applying for or receiving US Federal Aid (subsidized/unsubsidized

Direct Loans and Parent Plus Loans) at Crandall University must make

satisfactory academic progress towards completion of their chosen academic

programs.

Crandall is required by US Federal Law to define and enforce standards of

Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). These guidelines have been established to

encourage students to successfully complete their academic programs for which

aid is received.

Students are considered to be making satisfactory academic progress when

they:

complete 75% of attempted credit hours each semester

Page 42: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

42 Financial Information Crandall University

meet minimum grade point average requirements each semester

complete their programs of study within the maximum allowable

time frame

Minimum Requirements for Degree Students

Semester % of attempted credit hours

sucessfully completed

Semester

GPA

First to Third Semesters 75% 1.33

Fourth and subsequent

semesters 75% 2.0

Maximum Allowable Time Frame for Full-Time Students

Students are entitled to receive aid for 150% of the length of their academic

program, e.g. a 4 year degree = 6 years of eligibility.

Evaluation and Notification

Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) will be assessed for all students by the

Vice President for Administration and Finance at the end of each academic

semester to determine their eligibility for continued Financial Aid. Students will,

be notified in writing or by email within ten business days of the semester grades

release if they are placed on Financial Aid probation or if their Financial Aid

eligibility has been suspended.

Financial Aid Probation and Suspension

Students who fail to achieve the required minimum standards of academic

progress will be placed on Financial Aid Probation for one semester. If, during

that semester, students meet the required minimum standards of academic

progress and meet with the Vice President for Administration and Finance, they

will be removed from probation and be eligible for US Federal Aid.

Students on probation who do not meet the required minimum standards

during that semester will be placed on Financial Aid Suspension. They will be

ineligible for any further US Federal Aid until such time as they achieve the

required minimum standards of academic progress. When suspended students

achieve the required minimum standards, they must notify the Financial Aid

Director, and they will be eligible again for US Federal Aid.

Page 43: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University Financial Information 43

Students who have exceeded their Timeframe Eligibility will be ineligible for

any further US Federal Aid.

Financial Aid Appeals

In certain circumstances, students whose US Federal Aid eligibility has been

suspended may appeal the suspension if at least one of the following criteria is

met:

Death of an immediate family member (parent, caregiver, spouse, sibling,

dependant child, etc.).

Extended illness of the student. (Documented chronic or recurring

medical or emotional illness that causes the student to be absent from

class at least 15 days or more.)

Family difficulties, such as divorce or illness.

Mitigating circumstances as determined by the Vice President for

Administration and Finance.

Appeal Process:

1. The student will submit a written appeal letter to the Vice President for

Administration and Finance within five business days of the receipt of

the notification of suspension. This letter must outline the reasons for the

failure to meet SAP requirements and include all documentation

supporting the appeal.

2. The appeal will be reviewed by the Vice President for Administration

and Finance and the Registrar, who together will decide to uphold or

reverse the suspension.

3. A written response to the appeal will be provided to the student within

ten business days.

Title IV Refund Policy

If a student withdraws or is expelled during the semester (payment period), US

law specifies that Crandall University must recalculate the student’s Title IV

(Direct Loan) funding to determine what amount he/she has “earned”.

Calculation of Title IV Funding Earned

To earn 100% of Title IV funding, a student must complete 60% or more of

the semester. If a student has not completed 60% of the semester, the amount

earned will be determined by the number of calendar days completed divided by

Page 44: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

44 Financial Information Crandall University

the number of days in the semester. Therefore, a student who has completed 25

days of the 103 day semester, will be eligible for 24.27% (25 divided by 103

equals 24.27%) of their previous Title IV eligibility.

If the student received (or Crandall received on the student’s behalf) less

assistance than the amount that was earned, the student may be eligible to receive

those additional funds. If the student received more assistance than was earned,

the excess funds must be returned by Crandall and/or the student.

Returning Excess Title IV Funding

Crandall is required to return a portion of the excess funds equal to the lesser

of

1. Crandall’s charges multiplied by the unearned percentage of the funds, or

2. The entire amount of excess funds.

If Crandall is not required to return all of the excess funds, the student must

return the remaining amount.

Title IV funds will be returned to the lender in the following order:

1. Unsubsidized Federal Direct Loans

2. Subsidized Federal Direct Loans

Crandall will return all excess funds to the lender within 30 days of the last

date of attendance.

Withdrawal Date

When a student withdraws during a semester, the withdrawal date for Title IV

refund purposes will be established as the earlier of the following dates:

The date the student notifies the Registrar’s Office of his/her intent to

withdraw.

The date the student submits a withdrawal form.

If a student does not submit a withdrawal form or notify the Registrar of

his/her intent to withdraw, the withdrawal date will be established as the last date

of his/her class attendance.

If a student receives all failing grades for a semester and it is determined that

this is a result of lack of class attendance, that students last date of attendance will

be established and used to calculate the amount of Title IV funding earned for the

semester.

Page 45: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University Financial Information 45

Refund Policy

Refund of tuition only (fees such as comprehensive, CSA, etc. are non-

refundable) may be available from the University based upon the following

criteria:

Tuition:

End of 2nd

full week of classes: 70%

End of 3rd

full week of classes: 60%

End of 4th

full week of classes: 40%

After 4th

full week of classes: 0%

During Spring, Summer or intensive course sessions where class schedules are

modified from what is normal in a regular semester, these time frames will be

used as equivalencies; e.g. three hours of class time equals one week of classes.

This policy will be strictly enforced. No other refunds for tuition will be

available. Students must go through the formal withdrawal procedures with the

Registrar’s Office and sign an official notice of withdrawal. The date of

withdrawal used for refunds shall be the approved date on the official notice of

withdrawal signed and provided by the Registrar’s Office and not when the

students stopped going to classes.

All outstanding accounts within the University must be paid before a tuition

refund will be considered.

Should a medical situation cause a student to withdraw, he/she may receive a

refund depending on the time frame at which the student withdraws with a

medical note. Please contact the Registrar immediately should this occur.

Note: Residence students sign a residence contract for eight months (the

University term). If a student withdraws from residence without formal approval

from Student Development, he/she is responsible for residence fees (including

meal plan) for the entire study year (September to April).

Meal Plans:

No refunds will be given on meal plan charges.

CAMPUS LIFE

Co-curricular Activities

Much of a student's growth and learning takes place outside the classroom and

removed from books. At Crandall University, numerous activities, organizations,

or opportunities exist for students to grow in all aspects of life. Drama and music

teams offer students an opportunity to develop talents and abilities and to use such

in ministry to others. The athletic program is a growing area with both varsity and

club sports teams. Student Government provides opportunity to learn more about

the structure of the University and to develop student leadership potential.

Social activities abound, including coffee houses, movie nights, and banquets.

Choosing to participate in these opportunities will enhance a student’s experience

at Crandall University.

Crandall Wellness Program

The aim of this program is to encourage students to develop and maintain a

balanced approach to life. The program will offer workshops, fitness sessions,

resources, nutritional guidance, and social events designed to strengthen the

community and encourage a healthy well-balanced lifestyle. This program is

coordinated by the Student Development Department.

Student Success Centre

The Student Success Centre, which is located in Murray Hall’s room 168,

exists to enhance the learning of the Crandall University community. Free

seminars and one-to-one appointments are offered to help students develop strong

academic habits and life skills. Writing assistance is emphasized at the Centre, and

students may meet with a trained writing consultant at any stage of the writing

process.

Athletics/Recreation

It is the University’s desire that students develop in all areas of life while at Crandall;

therefore, it provides opportunities for health and fitness. The fitness room is available to

Page 62: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

62 Campus Life Crandall University

students during regular building hours. Students are encouraged to try out and/or sign up

for the teams co-ordinated each year.

Crandall University offers three levels of competitive athletics: Varsity, Club, and

Intramural. Varsity athletics consist of intercollegiate teams belonging to the Atlantic

Colleges Athletics Association such as women’s soccer, men’s basketball, and women’s

basketball. Club athletics may include baseball, hockey, softball, and volleyball.

Intramural opportunities arranged through the Student Association may include football,

volleyball, softball, badminton, and ping pong as the university strives to involve all

students in maintaining physical health and well-being during the academic year.

Spiritual Life

The signature verse of the University is taken from the book of Colossians, chapter

one - “that Christ might come to have first place in everything.” Therefore, we give as

much focus to spiritual life development as we do to academic development. The

historic Christian faith upon which this University was founded is evident in classes, in

residence, on the sports field, in our social activities, but above all in the lives of those

faculty, staff, and students who form our community.

One of the ways the University community celebrates faith is through the preaching

and teaching of God’s Word and through the praise and worship within our required

regular chapel gatherings. The academic activities of the University cease so that as

many as possible may come together to focus and regain perspective on the ways God

has blessed us and challenges us to develop and grow in biblical knowledge, spiritual

disciplines, and outreach. Choosing to attend Crandall also means choosing to

participate in the chapel program designed to enrich the spiritual dimension of the

student’s life. Please check the Student Handbook available on the website for specific

programs and details.

Students are also encouraged to find a local church where they will receive strength

and have opportunity to exercise their gifts and talents. A listing of local churches,

worship times, and mid week programs is available on the intranet. Some of these local

churches will also provide transportation from the University for Sunday services.

On Campus Housing

Crandall University provides residential options for students. Many choose

residence life because of location, convenience, and community. First year

students are encouraged to apply for residence within Colburne House as it

Page 63: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

provides a unique and rich experience of university life. The friendships

established here through visiting, socializing, studying, or sharing together will

last a lifetime.

Colburne House

The day-to-day operation of the Colburne House residence is under the

guidance of returning students known as Residence Assistants (R.A.’s). R.A.’s

will help students get settled into their rooms and will help with the transition

from home to university. R.A.’s will also demonstrate leadership and

responsibility so that Colburne House functions well and is in keeping with the

Christian mission of the University. The R.A. program and the operation of the

residence receives oversight and direction from the Student Development

Department.

The three-story residence, Colburne House, accommodates 140 students and is

divided into six separate wings. Each wing contains four living units. Each

living unit includes a washroom and a maximum of four bedrooms. Some units

may also include study rooms. Room options include single rooms, double

rooms, and super singles. In addition to six wing lounges, common space is also

found in the larger common lounge. The residence is located approximately 500

feet from Stuart E. Murray Hall.

Residence applications are considered on a first come first served basis.

Applications must be submitted along with the required $300.00 deposit when

applying for admission to the University. This deposit will be credited to the

student's account. Details on deadlines and refund policies can be found on the

Residence Application. Residence applications will be processed after the student

has been admitted to the University. Rooms will be assigned on a first-come,

first-served basis. The Residence Application allows students to recommend a

roommate or living unit mates if they desire. If not, the information requested on

the application will help the Student Development staff to make appropriate

roommate selections. The Student Development Department reserves the right to

determine priority assignment of single rooms to students who provide

documentation of special needs or circumstances. Once the residence is full, a

waiting list will be kept based on date of application. An off-campus housing

listing is posted on the intranet.

Students are expected to conduct themselves in a responsible and adult manner

consistent with Christian values at all times. The standard of conduct expected is

informed by the scriptures and consistent with the aims of the Christian

community. For specific policies on alcohol consumption, drugs, smoking,

dishonesty, gossip, etc., please refer to the Student Handbook.

general orientation options for students.

During the first few days at Crandall University, students may be filled with

excitement and anxiety. Student Development hosts an orientation program that

has been designed to lessen the anxiety and increase the excitement. At the same

time, it provides students with a sense of belonging. Staff and student volunteers

Grading and Reporting Grades stated below.

Page 70: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

70 Academic Regulations Crandall University

Guidelines for Grading and Reporting Grades

Grading policies for courses are stated within individual syllabi. These

policies attempt to ensure that all students are assessed fairly in relation to other

students in the same class, students in other sections of the same course, and

students in other courses at the University.

The grading standard is based on students’ demonstrated abilities in some of

the following areas: understanding, critical evaluation, analysis and synthesis,

organization, application, and appropriate writing form and style.

When questions about marks given on individual course assignments occur

during the academic year, students should deal with professors directly. If this

action does not result in a satisfactory conclusion, students may choose to discuss

the matter with their faculty advisor or the Registrar, and/or they may choose to

make a formal written appeal to the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee.

In instances where students believe that professors are specifically singling

them out and not treating them consistently with the other students in the class, the

Vice President for Academic Affairs should be contacted.

Should students have any questions about the accuracy of their final marks, the

Registrar's Office needs to be contacted immediately. If any error in calculating

or recording the mark is discovered, the correction will be made automatically,

and a new transcript of marks will be issued to the students. Should no error be

detected resulting in continued dissatisfaction on the part of the students, they may

appeal to the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee. This appeal must be

made in writing and should contain all pertinent information and concerns

regarding the situation. The Academic Standards and Appeals Committee is not

required to search out information if students have not offered sufficient details in

their appeals. Whenever possible students need to substantiate claims made

within their appeal letters.

Reporting of Grades

All grades must be submitted on or before the due date as noted in the

Academic Calendar. Outstanding grades, without an approved extension, will be

noted as a grade of “F” on student records. Following submission of final grades,

faculty are not permitted to change grades except in the cases where a calculation

of grade error has occurred or a student-initiated appeal has resulted in a change in

the original grade. Such a change must be submitted by the professor with an

explanation.

Page 71: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University Academic Regulations 71

The Registrar’s Office releases grades to students at the end of each semester

only in cases where all accounts with the University have been paid.

Grading Scale and Symbols

Standard alpha symbols are used as the official means to indicate course

results. Grade points and percentage equivalents are stated below. (Percentage

equivalents are offered below as a point of general comparison, but they have no

official status in the reporting of grades.)

A+ = 4.33 (94-100%)

A = 4.00 (87-93%)

A- = 3.67 (80-86%)

B+ = 3.33 (77-79%)

B = 3.00 (74-76%)

B- = 2.67 (70-73%)

C+ = 2.33 (67-69%)

C = 2.00 (64-66%)

C- = 1.67 (60-63%)

D+ = 1.33 (57-59%)

D = 1.00 (54-56%)

D- = 0.67 (50-53%)

F+ = 0.33 (40-49%)

F = 0.00 (below 40%)

In addition to the above grading symbols, five other designations are possible:

P – Pass is usually awarded for non-credit program requirements. It is not

calculated into the GPA.

W – Withdrew is assigned when students withdraw from courses after the second

week of classes and prior to the last day to withdraw as indicated in the calendar

of events.

IP – In Progress is assigned to active transcripts when students are actually in the

process of completing the course or program. It is also assigned in extenuating

circumstances when students have been unable to complete the course

requirements in the normal time period. Usually this delay would not exceed

more than six weeks. The Academic Standards & Appeal Committee must

approve this extension.

I – Incomplete is assigned temporarily, at the request of professors, when

students in non-credit courses have work not completed.

Page 72: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

72 Academic Regulations Crandall University

AU – Audit is assigned for courses that have been audited. It is not calculated

into the GPA.

Education Internship Grading System

P(Dis) = Pass, Distinguished

P(Pro) = Pass, Proficient

P(Bas) = Pass, Basic

F = Fail

Grade Point Average (GPA)

The Grade Point Average (GPA) is an indication of students’ academic performance

based on a scale ranging from 0.00 to 4.33 (see grade scale earlier). The GPA is

calculated by changing each letter grade to its grade point equivalent and multiplying this

number by the number of credit hours attributed to the course. These points are then

totalled and divided by the total credit hours attempted by students. Students’ transcripts

will reflect both sessional GPA’s as well as a cumulative GPA for all the courses taken

to that point.

Dean's List

Students who are enrolled in Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, or

Bachelor of Business Administration degree programs, or an equivalent, will be

considered Dean's List students if they maintain overall term GPA’s of 3.50 or

more.

Academic Probation/Dismissal

During the annual assessment period at the end of the winter semester the

Academic Standards and Appeals Committee may decide to dismiss students from

the University at any time for failure to meet academic requirements.

B.A., B.Sc., or B.B.A. students who have attempted between 24-51 credit

hours of work and who are unable to achieve a minimum cumulative GPA of 1.00

must be assessed by the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee and may be

dismissed as a result of this assessment.

hours, but have not yet earned 54 credit hours of work, and have achieved a

cumulative GPA of between 1.00 and 1.49 will be considered on academic

probation.

B.A., B.Sc., or B.B.A. students who have earned more than 51 credit hours of

work and who are unable to achieve a minimum cumulative GPA of 1.50 must be

assessed by the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee and may be placed

on probation or may be academically dismissed as a result of this assessment.

Students who complete courses from other universities or colleges while on

Academic Dismissal from Crandall University are not eligible to receive credit for

transfer toward their degrees at Crandall University.

Students who enter the university on conditional acceptance are given a

miniumum of 24 credit hours to improve their probationary status. To change

their conditional status students must obtain a cumulative GPA of at least 1.50.

Students who have not met this requirement but have obtained a sessional GPA

between 1.00 and 1.49 will be permitted to continue their studies on academic

probation. Failure to meet the minimum GPA standard of 1.00 will result in

academic dismissal.

Academic probation and dismissal guidelines regarding students who are

enrolled in Education and Adult Learner Professional Studies Degree Completion

programs are presented in separate documents. Inquiries should be made to the

program director regarding Adult Learner Professional Studies Degree

Completion and to the Assistant Registrar for Professional Studies regarding

Education.

Any academically dismissed student has the right to appeal the University’s

decision in writing to the Academic Council. Such a request should be forwarded

to the Registrar. Any academically dismissed students who receive permission

from the Academic Council to return to Crandall University will be placed on

conditional re-admittance. The student will need to achieve a cumulative GPA of

at least 1.50 to have their probationary status removed.

Students are normally removed from probationary status when they achieve a

cumulative GPA of 1.50, which then returns students’ status to good academic

standing.

Academic Dishonesty

The members of Crandall University’s academic community are expected to

conduct their work responsibly and with integrity. The faculty assumes that all

written and oral work in any course is original or credited to the proper source.

Crandall University will not tolerate the following forms of academic dishonesty:

1. Cheating on tests, quizzes, examinations, projects, reports, or any other

assignment designed to evaluate students.

2. Impeding the academic progress of other students.

Page 75: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University Academic Regulations 75

3. Submitting the same work for credit in two courses without permission to

do so.

4. Having others do students’ academic work or doing others’ work.

5. Involvement in acts of plagiarism, which is the presentation of anothers’

ideas or words as students’ own without proper documentation. Material

that must be documented includes summaries, paraphrases, public

broadcasts, lectures, and quotations.

Penalties for Academic Dishonesty

Penalties for academic dishonesty include one or more of the following:

1. reprimand and rewrite

2. reduction of grade on the assignment (maximum penalty of F)

3. grade of F on the course

4. suspension

5. dismissal

When encountering any form of academic dishonesty, professors have some

discretion in determining the seriousness of the offense. This discretion needs to

be tempered by an awareness that their courses are part of a larger educational

context at Crandall University and that there have been general guidelines and

practices established by the University’s Academic Standards and Appeals

Committee in an effort to minimize the presence of academic dishonesty at

Crandall University. The objective is to create a balance between allowing

flexibility from one professor to another, but also establishing a range of

consistent and appropriate treatments for all Crandall students.

Plagiarism specifically represents a controversial and difficult form of

academic dishonesty within any university, so the following guidelines have been

approved by the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee as the consistent

and appropriate measure for faculty to follow at Crandall.

1. When students in their first year at Crandall University commit

plagiarism, professors may allow students to rewrite the assignment with

a reduction in grade. However, depending on the severity of the offense,

professors may assign instead an F on the assignment or even an F on the

entire course and they must submit the students’names to the Academic

Standards and Appeals Committee. Should this occur the professors

must also clearly state for the students the specific reasons for this

decision. If students question professors’ decisions in such cases, they

must submit their appeals in written form to the Registrar as Chair of the

Academic Standards and Appeals Committee.

Page 76: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

76 Academic Regulations Crandall University

2. In cases of plagiarism by students in their second or subsequent years at

Crandall University, professors must give the assignments or papers an F,

and they must submit the students’ names and evidence of the offense to

the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee. In making their

submissions to the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee,

professors may recommend, with reasons, that the F grade be raised or

that an F be assigned for the entire course.

3. In cases when students’ names are submitted to the Academic Standards

and Appeals Committee of the University by professors, the members of

the committee will make a decision regarding the penalty to be imposed

and will notify both students and professors of the outcomes and the

reasons why. (The Academic Standards and Appeals Committee may

choose to interview students and/or faculty members involved should

further clarification be needed.) A copy of the letter that is sent to

students will also be placed in their particular files.

4. The penalty for a second offense of plagiarism, which occurs after

students have been penalized for a first offense by the Academic

Standards and Appeals Committee, is either suspension or dismissal.

5. Plagiarism that is determined after the assignment has been returned or

after students have completed the course or degree program will be

reported by the professors responsible for discovering the plagiarism to

the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee, which will implement

the penalties retroactively.

Since final examinations are administered by the Registrar’s Office, incidents

of academic dishonesty during the writing of final examinations will be addressed

by the Registrar in consultation with the Academic Standards and Appeals

Committee and the professor of record for the course in which the offense has

been committed.

Academic dishonesty involving the collaboration of two or more students may

result in penalties for all involved. Students accused of academic dishonesty are

encouraged to discuss the matter directly with the professor. If no satisfactory

conclusion is reached, students have the right to appeal the professor’s decision in

writing to the Academic Standards and Appeals Committee and the decision of the

Academic Standards and Appeals Committee to the Senate. All appeals to the

Academic Standards and Appeals Committee must be made within two weeks of

being notified of the offense.

Crandall University Academic Regulations 77

Auditing Courses

Students who wish to attend classes in courses without being assigned a grade

may register to audit the course, subject to the following regulations:

1. Registrations for audit will not be accepted without permission

of the course instructor.

2. Normal regulations and deadlines regarding course adds and

drops apply.

3. Students cannot change courses from credit to audit or from

audit to credit after the last day for course changes in a semester.

Letter of Permission

Crandall University will provide letters of permission with the approval of the

professor of record or the Registrar’s Office upon receipt of the Request for Letter

of Permission form. Students must be in good standing to take courses on letter

of permission.

Transfer credits are recorded on the transcript with credit value only. No

transfer credit grade is recorded, and transfer credits are excluded from students’

GPA’s.

Convocation Requirements

Students in degree programs are eligible to convocate if they have achieved a

cumulative GPA of 1.67 or a GPA of 2.00 over the last 60 credit hours of their

course work.

Certificates are awarded only if students have achieved a cumulative GPA of

1.67 in their program requirements.

Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, and Bachelor of Business

Administration students who have achieved a minimal cumulative GPA of 3.67

upon completion of their program will receive a “with distinction” designation on

their degrees.

Students who expect to complete all of their degree requirements at the end of

a particular semester must submit an Application to Graduate form along with

their $50.00 graduation fee six months prior to their anticipated Spring

Convocation and two months prior to their anticipated Fall Convocation. Failure

Page 78: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

78 Academic Regulations Crandall University

to meet this deadline may result in students’ ineligibility to graduate on the

expected date. Potential graduates will normally convocate at the earliest

available ceremony. Application to Graduate forms are available from the

Registrar's Office.

Community Practicum

Arts, Business, and Science students (excluding degree completion) are

required to fulfill some form of practical service commitment in the church or

community. Assignments are equivalent to two hours of service per week, so

each community practicum credit requires approximately 20 hours of

involvement. Community practicum is part of the required curriculum. One

semester of community practicum is required for every year of full-time study up

to a maximum of four community practicums. Completion of ID1000 allows

students to waive one community practicum requirement.

The assignments vary in nature and may include the following: ministering,

social service, leading youth activities, teaching Sunday School, serving as a

public school aide, leading in music ministry, volunteering for any number of non-

profit agencies, and serving in designated university options. A number of service

options are available on campus. Here is a list of university positions that may

count toward community practicum: Beacon editor, yearbook editor, CREW

member, club team manager, worship team member, Crandall Spotlight Theatre

actor, Residence Assistant (RA), Youth Leadership Certificate intern, residence

council member, and Crandall Student Association Student Senate member.

Involvement in the Student Leadership Challenge may also count toward

community practicum credit. Service work done for course credit does not count,

however. Before completing volunteer work for community practicum credit,

please check with the community practicum coordinator in the Registrar’s Office

to ensure that it will count.

Mature students may qualify to have their community practicum requirements

waived based on past involvement. Portfolios validating extensive community

service may be submitted to the community practicum coordinator in the

Registrar’s Office, and he/she will schedule an assessment meeting with each

applicant regarding the requirement.

Community practicum records are maintained by the Registrar’s Office. This

information is a part of students’ official records, and successful completion is

necessary for graduation.

Crandall University Academic Regulations 79

Second Degree Requirements

To receive a second degree from Crandall University all requirements of the

second degree must be fulfilled, including a minimal addition of 36 credit hours to

the 120 credit hours of the first degree.

Directed Studies

A Directed Study is a 3000 or 4000 level reading course offered in special

circumstances to upper level students on an individual basis. Directed Studies are

available only on a limited basis due to the additional responsibility they place

upon the faculty. Students interested in requesting a Directed Study course should

follow the following procedures:

Contact a potential professor as well as the Registrar’s Office;

Obtain a Directed Study request form from the Registrar’s Office;

Submit Directed Studies request forms prior to the last possible day for

course changes of the semester in which the course is to be done;

signed by the student and professor, to the Registrar. This form will be

reviewed and submitted to the Vice President for Academic Affairs for

approval consideration.

Transcript Requests

The Registrar's Office will process transcript requests received from students

via a signed Transcript Request Form. Such requests will normally take 3-5

business days; however, at peak times, this process could take two weeks. A fee

of $5.00 per official transcript is charged. Transcripts will not be released to

students with outstanding account balances.

Updating Degrees

Crandall University will exchange degrees for graduates of Crandall

University who subsequently complete the requirements for a second major at a

later date. These students will not participate in the Convocation ceremony again,

but acknowledgement of the change will be included in the Convocation program.

They will be subject to the program regulations in place at the time of their return

to the University.

Page 80: Academic Calender 2011 2013 july 29 2012

Crandall University will exchange degrees for graduates of Crandall

University who subsequently complete the requirements for an Honours Degree at

a later date. They will not participate in the Convocation ceremony again, but

acknowledgement of the change will be included in the Convocation program.

They will be subject to the regulations in place at the time of their return.

Parchment Reprints

Degree and certificate parchment reprints are available upon the completion of

the corresponding request form if students verify that the original was destroyed

or lost. A reprint may be available to students who request their degrees in a

name that differs from that on the original parchment if they return the original

parchment. In all cases, the parchment shall be marked as duplicate or

replacement. There is a $30.00 fee to reprint a new degree parchment.

Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Management (Degree Completion

Program)

The Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Management is designed and delivered in a

non-traditional format. It is offered through the Adult Learner Professional

Studies (ALPS) Division of the university. It is for mature adults (at least 21 years

of age) who are employed, have at least the equivalent of one-year of post

secondary eduation, and want to complete their undergraduate degrees.

This is an accelerated degree completion format which enables students to

develop interpersonal, self-reliance, leadership, problem solving, decision-

making, written communications, and oral communication skills. Students also

gain an understanding of research techniques and applications.

This B.A. in Organizational Management degree prepares students to be

managers in a variety of fields and businesses compatible with today’s

employment market. Other graduates may consider further educational options,

including the B.Ed. and M.B.A. degrees. Enrolment in this non-traditional,

accelerated degree-completion program involves attending classes on a year-round

basis, one night per week, for 24 months. The delivery follows a cohort team

structure where professors are both educators and practitioners. Each student

earns 60 credit hours by completing the program’s 18 required courses and an

individual Applied Research Project.

The Council of Christian Colleges and Universities Study Programs

Because Crandall University is an affiliate member of The Council of

Christian Colleges and Universities, a number of off-campus learning experiences

are available to students.

American Studies Program:

The American Studies Program, founded in September 1976, serves as the

"Washington campus" of Council member colleges. Based on the principle of

integrating faith, learning, and living, students spend a semester in Washington,

DC earning academic credit by serving as interns and participating in a

contemporary, issue-oriented seminar program. Available internships may

include congressional offices, social service agencies, think tanks, or cultural

institutions. The American Studies Program is designed for juniors and seniors

with a wide range of academic majors and vocational interests.

Latin American Studies Program:

An opportunity to live and learn in Latin America is available to students from

Council member colleges through the Latin American Studies Program. Located

in San Jose, Costa Rica, the program is committed to helping students examine

and live out the lordship of Jesus Christ in an international context. Each

semester, a group of approximately 25 students is selected to participate in this

seminar and service experience.

Los Angeles Film Studies Center:

In January 1991, the Christian College Council inaugurated the Los Angeles

Film Studies Center. Its purpose is to enable Christian college students to serve in

various aspects of the film industry with professional skill and Christian integrity.

Located in Burbank near major production studios, the semester-long program

combines seminar courses with an internship in various segments of the film

industry, providing students the opportunity to explore the industry within a

Christian context and from a liberal arts perspective.

Middle East Studies Program:

The Middle East Studies Program in Cairo, Egypt, provides students with the

opportunity to study Middle Eastern cultures, religions, and conflicts from within

this diverse and strategic region. Juniors and seniors from Christian colleges

participate in interdisciplinary seminar classes, receive Arabic language

instruction, and serve as interns with various organizations in Cairo. The Middle

East Studies Program will encourage evangelical Christians to relate to the

Muslim world in an informed and constructive manner.

Russian Studies Program:

The Russian Studies Program allows juniors and seniors from Christian colleges to

spend a semester living and learning in Russia. Students will study the language and

attend seminar courses on Russian culture, history and current political and economic

issues. Program participants experience a variety of Russian cities, living for two weeks

in Moscow, ten weeks in Nizhni Novgorod (formerly Gorky), and three weeks in St.

Petersburg.

Council-Affliliated Programs:

Au Sable Institute Of Environmental Studies:

Located in Michigan, this program offers courses which cover various aspects of

environmental studies and stewardship. Ecological information is provided along with

experience in both field and laboratory techniques. Scholarship assistance is available to

students at Council member colleges.

Oxford Summer School Program:

Students at Council member colleges and universities are invited to apply for

admission to the Oxford University Summer School Program, a multi-disciplinary study

of the history and development of the Renaissance and Reformation through examination

of the philosophy, art, literature, science, music, politics, and religion of this era. Students

have access to the Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, which is affiliated with

Oxford’s Keble College.

PROGRAMS and COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

Course Number System

Four figures appear for each course indicated in the calendar. The first figure indicates

the usual year of attendance in which the course is taken and/or the academic level at which

the course is taught. For instance, {1} indicates that it is a course available for all first year

students. All courses beginning with a {3} or {4} will be considered upper level courses

requiring prerequisites. Generally 4000 level courses are very specialized within a

particular major and available for third and fourth year students in that major. The 6000

level courses in Education are graduate level and require a B.Ed. or equivalent as a

prerequisite.

The second and third figures provide the Registrar’s Office with the opportunity of

maintaining a numeric distinctiveness between various courses offered from one semester

to the next.

The fourth and final digit normally indicates the number of credit hours granted upon

the successful completion of the course. For instance, half-year courses will end with a {3}

and year courses will end with a {6}. Those course numbers ending in {0}are non-credit or

non-academic courses but will still be awarded a pass (P) or fail (F) grade.

Crandall University utilizes a semester approach to its course offerings. This means

that the majority of courses last for only one semester and a final grade is given upon

completion of each semester. However, in a few specific cases, such as would be found

within many introductory courses or some upper level courses, one semester does not

provide adequate time to cover all the necessary content. In these cases, the semester

approach is maintained, but both fall and winter semesters are used in sequence to cover all

the necessary material. In some cases, Part I is the prerequisite for Part II.

The courses listed in this section are not always offered every year but may occur, for

instance, every other year. Students will need to consult the Registrar’s Office to determine

what the normal sequencing pattern would be.

Courses marked with an asterisk (*) are cross-listed in other disciplines.

Biology

The B.Sc. in Biology degree gives students the opportunity to explore the diversity of life

forms, their complex inter-relatedness, and the foundational issues related to their studies.

A major in Biology will form the basis for graduate studies, for professional studies in

education, health scineces, or for entry-level jobs in various careers related to science.
