Policies & Procedures
The following policies and procedures supplement Argosy University's general admission requirements. For a full listing and explanation of the policies observed by Argosy University, please refer to the current academic catalog, or contact us to request more information.
Do Not Call Exemption
The Admissions office at Argosy University observes the regulations associated with the national Do Not Call Registry. However, in order for us to best serve you, we need your permission to contact you beyond the standard 90 day period.
If you would like an Argosy University Admissions Representative to be able to call you beyond the designated 90-day limit, please provide us with written permission to do so by completing and submitting the Do Not Call Exemption Form.
Admissions Committee Decisions
Argosy University does not discuss committee decisions regarding an applicant's file. The decisions of the Admissions Committee are final and are not subject to appeal.
Application to Multiple Campus Locations
An applicant who wants to apply to more than one campus must complete a separate application and forward a full set of application materials to each campus.
Late Admission
Argosy University recommends that applicants apply well before their expected program start date to allow sufficient time to complete all necessary requirements for admission. At the discretion of the Admissions Committee, Argosy University may allow a student to start classes after the beginning of an academic session if the student completes all admission requirements and begins class within the first week of the add/drop period.
Conditional Admission
Conditional admission may be granted to an applicant pending receipt of official transcripts. To be eligible for conditional admission to matriculate into the program, unofficial transcripts must show receipt of the degree required for admission to the program. Students who have been conditionally admitted are not eligible to receive financial aid until documentation has been provided and the conditional status removed. Students who fail to submit all official transcripts by the last day of their first session (for a 7.5 week class) or semester (for a 15 week class) will be withdrawn from the program, credits will not be transcripted, and tuition will be refunded.
Early Acceptance
Early Acceptance may be granted to an applicant who is otherwise qualified for admission, but who has not yet earned the degree required for admission (e.g., a student currently enrolled in high school who is applying for an associate's program, a student currently enrolled in a bachelor's program who is applying for a master's program, etc.). To qualify for early acceptance, the applicant must provide a transcript documenting that he/she is in the final year of the required degree program. Prior to starting classes the applicant must provide a transcript documenting receipt of the degree. If the transcript is unofficial, the applicant may be granted conditional admission status. Students who have been conditionally admitted are not eligible to receive financial aid until documentation has been provided and the conditional status is removed.
Re-application for Admission
Applicants who have been denied admission may reapply after the passage of one year from the date of denial by submitting all documents required of a new applicant. Individuals who intend to reapply for admission are strongly encouraged to contact the Admissions Department prior to reapplying.
Re-admission Process After Withdrawal
Students who have been withdrawn from Argosy University for a period of greater than one year must reapply for admission. These applicants must submit the materials required by the campus and program to which they are reapplying. Students who have been dismissed from Argosy University must successfully appeal the dismissal before being readmitted. Students who have been dismissed from Argosy University and not readmitted to a program of study are prohibited from taking coursework at any Argosy University campus or online.
Reinstatement
Students who are administratively withdrawn from Argosy University for failing to remain continuously registered may petition for reinstatement. Students may be required to wait for a period of one year from the time of withdrawal before applying for reinstatement. Students who have been withdrawn for less than one year may be permitted to register with permission of the campus dean or program chair. Students may also be required to submit materials and fees required for readmission.
Re-admission After Extended Absence
Students who have been withdrawn from the school for three years or more will be required to have all prior coursework re-evaluated for determination of relevancy to current practice. Faculty members appointed by the campus dean or program chair will conduct the evaluation of coursework.
Veterans Administration Benefits
Most campuses of Argosy University are approved for training of veterans and eligible veteran's dependents. At Argosy University, Twin Cities, approval is granted by the Minnesota State Approving Agency. Students should contact each campus directly for further information.
