学术课程分享

Hardin-Simmons University offers a variety of online courses through Acadeum, a consortium of like-minded accredited colleges and universities that share online course offerings. A course taken through this consortium is considered an institutional credit and will impact student grade point averages just like an HSU course.

学生必须点击链接, sign up for an account using their HSU student email, and select the pre-approved course for registration. In the comments section, enter your reason for needing to take the course through Acadeum. Please note: All registrations are still dependent on HSU approval on a student-by-student basis. If you have any questions please email the Office of the Registrar at acadeum@debbieshandsforhealth.com.

它是如何工作的:

  1. 和你的导师一起工作, you find and register for an online Acadeum course to add to your schedule.
  2. HSU审核您的注册请求. 如果得到批准, HSU招收你参加这个班, applying the course to your tuition block or billing you if the tuition block does not cover the course. You receive information needed to access the course. (如你的要求未获批准, you will be notified and given the opportunity to provide additional information.)
  3. You complete the course, and the grade transfers back to Hardin-Simmons.

学术课程的费用是多少?
For part-time students, Hardin-Simmons’s per-credit-hour tuition rates and fees apply. 全日制学生, undergraduate courses are included in the block tuition rate, though some course sections may have a substantial course fee. (Check your bill or with the Office of the Registrar to see whether a course fee applies.)

我可以放弃我已经注册的学术课程吗?
一旦参加了学术联盟课程, contact the 注册处 to make a change to your enrollment. No refunds will be made after the Teaching institution’s final drop date for the course — which may differ from HSU’s refund schedule.

Will the Acadeum course appear on my Hardin-Simmons transcript?
When a student takes a consortial course through Acadeum, the course grade and credit are transcribed on the Hardin-Simmons University transcript.

How do I find out about required course materials?
Each Teaching institution will place a link to their bookstore in the welcome letter sent to the student once the enrollment request is approved.  Required learning materials should be posted in the Teaching Institution’s Learning Management System (LMS), and students should view them when they log in to the LMS. It is important that students pay careful attention to the letter with login information, sent from the Teaching Institution to the student’s HSU email account, and make preparation to participate in the course with all necessary course materials.

What counts as course attendance for a course taken through Acadeum?
当学生掉队时, 撤回从, 或未通过教学机构的课程, the Teaching Institution will inform Hardin-Simmons of the student’s Last Date of Attendance, 这是学生最后一次:

  • Participated in a discussion board about academic matters,
  • Emailed the professor to ask a question about the academic subject matter studied in the course, or
  • 提交学术作业或考试.

Merely logging into the Teaching Institution’s LMS without active participation does not count as academic attendance.

我什么时候能看到我的课程成绩?
在财团内部, the Teaching Institution will send the grade to Hardin-Simmons University to be recorded on the student’s transcript at HSU. These grades will be submitted via the Acadeum Consortium secure platform. HSU将公布成绩, typically within ten business days of the end of the course, and the student may review it in the Student Self-Service portal.

Will my grade count as part of my Hardin-Simmons GPA?
是的. Grades taken through Acadeum will count just like a course taken at Hardin-Simmons or through the corsortial arrangement that HSU has with ACU and McMurry University.

Suppose I am unable to complete my course on schedule — is an Incomplete Grade ever an option?
Professors at Teaching Institutions may grant Incompletes to Hardin-Simmons students in accordance with their internal policies on incompletes, including the length of time before the Incomplete grade converts automatically to a failing grade. The Teaching Institutions will notify HSU of the Incomplete and its duration.
