This information is provided in the university catalog, both in print and on the university’s website:  \n1. The name or title of the course.  \n2. A brief description of the subject matter of the course.  \n3. The tuition charge or other fees charged for the course. If a student is enrolled in more than one course, the tuition charge or fee for all courses maybe stated in one sum.  \n4. The refund policy for the return of the refundable portion of tuition, fees or other charges.  \n5. That the completion of the course is applicable toward a degree granted by Waldorf University. This is identified in the degree requirements for associate, bachelor, and master’s programs.  \n6. The name of Waldorf’s accrediting agency, the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), as recognized by the United States Department of Education.  \nThe provisions of this catalog are not to be seen as a binding contract between the student and Waldorf University. The university reserves the right to make changes that seem necessary or desirable, including course, policy and program changes and cancellations.  \nTo graduate, students must meet the degree requirements from the catalog of any year in which they are enrolled full-time. If the student withdraws for more than one semester, the requirements of a subsequent catalog must be followed.  \nThe fulfillment of graduation requirements is the responsibility of the student, not the Registrar, faculty or the academic advisor. To this end, the student should keep a copy of the catalog under which they intend to graduate.  \nWaldorf University  \n106 South Sixth Street Forest City, Iowa 50436-1713  \n641.585.8103 or 1.800.292.1903  \nWaldorf University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, 230 South La Salle Street,  \nSuite 7-500, Chicago, IL 60604-1411; 800.621.7440  \nWaldorf University is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Columbia Southern Education Group, Inc.
