Hope International University recognizes the many hardships military personnel and their families face every day, especially during this time of uncertainty. We understand that military students who are deployed away from their homes, families, and their permanent duty stations may experience difficulties completing their educational goals and campus/online class requirements.
Hope International University encourages military students to continue their education and assures them that HIU will remain flexible and responsive to their needs.
In support of our deployed students, we have adopted the following deployment policy:
- Active Duty, Reservists and National Guard students currently enrolled in a degree program at Hope International University will have their degree status placed on “hold-military obligation” from the point of deployment or start of temporary duty (TDY,TDA) if the temporary duty exceeds 30 successive days of duration.
- Hope International University will defer collection of tuition, book and miscellaneous fees while in a deployed status as a result of a military actions or commitment that would result in the student being unable to complete or participate in their required class studies.
- HIU will promptly readmit a service member with the same academic status he or she has when last attending HIU (or accepted for admission) if postponement is due to military service.
- To qualify, eligible service members who have been called to active duty or deployed from their normal duty stations must fall within the guidelines listed below:
- Students must be in good standing in their class and be receiving a passing grade at the time of deployment.
- Student must have meet required attendance requirements.
- Students must inform HIU as soon as possible after receiving notification of deployment or movement due to military necessity.
- Whenever possible students must provide supporting documentation, such as military orders, to support their withdrawal from class and indicate intent to return to school.
