Accreditation


Texas Lutheran University follows not only the letter but also the intent of the Civil Rights Laws in selecting students for matriculation and otherwise in the administration of the university. TLU does not discriminate based on race, age, sex, color, national origin, religion*, disability or sexual orientation of any applicant, student, or employee.

TLU University affirms its responsibility to meet the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act 1990 (A.D.A.). The university has developed procedures to insure appropriate service to all students who have valid requests under the law. Any student who wishes to initiate a request for accommodations should contact the A.D.A. coordinator. A complete description of the procedures for students with disabilities can be found in the Academic Procedures section of this catalog.

TLU is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award baccalaureate and masters degrees. Contact the Commission on Colleges at 1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Georgia 30033-4097, telephone 404-679-4500, or www.sacscoc.org for questions about the accreditation of TLU. Information concerning accreditation by separate accrediting bodies for specific programs is shown in the related section of this catalog.

The provisions of this catalog do not constitute a contract between the student and the university. The university reserves the right to change any provision or requirement at any time during the student’s time at the university. In October 2009, TLU implemented a new data system which changed several course numbers.

* Section 702, Title VII, provides that a church-related institution may give preference in employment on the basis of religion where religion is a bona fide occupational qualification reasonably necessary to the normal operation of that institution. As a university of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, Texas Lutheran University will employ persons affirming faith in the mission of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America sufficient in number to maintain an active and dynamic relationship with the Church.
