Special Students

High School Students

Students who are currently in high school may enroll in freshman and sophomore level (100-299) courses for which they have met the prerequisites, provided they:

  • Have completed their junior year of high school.
  • Are in the upper 50 percent of their class.
  • Have an average of 85 on high school work completed to date.
  • Submit a letter of permission and recommendation from the high school counselor or principal.
  • Submit a current high school transcript.

Complete the following steps to register:

  • Complete a "Special Student Application" (available in Admissions and the Registrar's office) and attach your official high school transcript and letter of permission.
  • Deliver application to the Admissions office (Welcome Center in Zellner Hall) for approval to register.
  • Upon approval to register, Admissions will contact the Registrar's office to enroll you in the course.

High School Graduates or GED

Students who have completed high school or their GED and are not seeking a college degree do not have to go through the regular matriculation process to be allowed to register for summer classes. ACU assumes that these students know what courses they want and are qualified to take. If they wish to speak with an adviser, they should consult the advising contact list on page 10. Those students who later decide to continue their work at ACU will be expected to apply at that time for admission, as specified in the current Undergraduate/Graduate Catalog.

Register by completing a "Special Student Application" in the Registrar's office (AD 207). You must provide a copy of your official high school transcript or GED certificate.

Intercollegiate Students

ACU students may apply for approval to enroll in courses at Hardin-Simmons University (HSU) or McMurry University and count them toward an ACU degree.

To do this:

  • Complete an Intercollegiate Enrollment Application in the Registrar's office (AD 207).
  • Obtain the required signatures (adviser, department chair, Student Financial Services and Registrar's office) prior to registering for classes at HSU or McMurry.

    NOTE: Classes must be dropped through both Registrars' offices to receive proper refunds.

HSU and McMurry students should complete the following steps to enroll in courses at ACU to count toward their degrees at HSU and McMurry:

  • Complete an Intercollegiate Enrollment Permit at HSU or McMurry prior to registering for classes at ACU.
  • Bring your Intercollegiate Permit (with all required signatures) to the ACU Registrar's office in the Administration Building, Room 207, to enroll in your classes. If your permit is "for grades only," you must visit with Student Financial Services in the Welcome Center, Zellner Hall, to make payment.

    NOTE: Classes must be dropped through both Registrars' offices to receive proper refunds.

Grades and financial charges will be mailed to HSU or McMurry. Questions about registration should be directed to the ACU Registrar's office at 915-674-2545.

Cancellation of courses

Abilene Christian University reserves the right to cancel any classes or alter schedules when necessary. If a class is canceled, students will be notified at the first class meeting and may then register through their advisers for replacement courses without being assessed a fee.
