The provisions of this catalog do not constitute a contract between the University and a student who commences any program of study insofar as it relates to the degree requirements for that program during the effective period of this catalog. Degree requirements are subject to change during such period only to the extent required by federal or state laws or accreditation standards. The specific courses or activities constituting the degree requirements for any program are subject to substitution at any time prior to completion by the student.
The remaining provisions of this catalog reflect the general nature of and conditions concerning the educational services of the University in effect at this time but do not constitute a contract or otherwise binding commitment between the University and the student. Any fees, charges or costs and all academic regulations set forth in this catalog are subject to cancellation or termination by the University or the Tennessee Board of Regents at any time.
The University provides the opportunity for students to increase their knowledge by providing programs of instruction in the various disciplines and programs through faculty who, in the opinion of the University, are trained and qualified for teaching at the college level. However, the acquisition of knowledge by any student is contingent upon the student’s desire to learn and his or her application of appropriate study techniques to any course or program. As a result, the University does not warrant or represent that any student who completes a course or program of study will necessarily acquire any specific knowledge or skills, or will be able to successfully pass or complete any specific examination for any course, degree or license.
