By submitting this application, I certify to Johnson & Wales University (the “university”) that all information in this application and in my supporting documentation is true, correct, and complete. The university does not retain all application material submitted by the applicant.
I hereby authorize the university to obtain my official high school or secondary school transcripts and all college or postsecondary transcripts from such institutions that I have attended and all other information from such institutions. I give permission to the university to contact and share information with issuing institutions or other appropriate third parties for the purpose of verifying any documentation or information I have provided or as otherwise permitted or required by law. Any acceptance or subsequent enrollment to the university is conditioned upon the university’s right to revoke such acceptance or subsequent enrollment at any time if I provide false, misleading, or incomplete information or if the university learns of any past, present, or future misconduct by me that, in the university’s sole judgment, would affect my ability to represent and uphold the standards of the university. Any enrollment at the university is conditioned upon my payment of all financial obligations incurred by me and my compliance with and upholding of all university codes, policies, procedures, rules, and regulations. Solely for avoidance of doubt, the tuition and fees students pay the university will not be discounted or refunded (unless provided in university policy or required by applicable law), irrespective of any changes in the manner or mode of learning or changes to any activities, events, or programs (including revision, postponement, or cancellation of same) at any time during the academic year; the manner or mode of learning could include on-ground learning, remote learning, or a combination of the two; it could include fewer classes or restructured classes; and it could include changes mid-semester (as just a few examples of possible changes). Any enrollment at the university is also conditioned on my ability to satisfy the technical standards (subject to change) applicable to my chosen program or courses.
My signature constitutes my express written perpetual consent for the university to conduct business electronically, including electronic submissions and deliveries, with me. I acknowledge that I may notify the university of my preference to receive items via hardcopy by emailing OptOut@jwu.edu. I further acknowledge and certify that in order to conduct business electronically with the university, I have access to an electronic device (e.g., a computer, smartphone, or tablet) with a supporting operating system that can connect to the internet, an up-to-date internet browser, an up-to-date pdf viewer, and sufficient electronic storage capacity on the electronic device to enable me to save documents for later reference or be connected to a printer that is capable of printing from the browser.
My signature constitutes my express consent to receive communications — including but not limited to recurring marketing/promotional e-mails, phone calls (landline or mobile), SMS/text messages, faxes, and any other means — from or on behalf of the university and its agents for any university purposes (which relate to my inquiry of the university) at the email and phone numbers (landline/mobile) and other contact information I have provided and may provide in the future. The foregoing consent includes but is not limited to receipt of communications sent by an automatic telephone dialing system and/or artificial/prerecorded voice messages. My consent applies regardless of my inclusion on any state, federal, or other do-not-call lists. Consent is not a condition for receipt of any good or service or enrollment in or attendance at the university.
I agree to notify the university in writing if I change, drop, transfer, or otherwise surrender any phone number(s) or email(s) provided. Carrier charges may apply. Terms and Conditions apply.
I authorize the university to capture and disclose/use my image, likeness, name, and/or voice (and audio and video recordings and photographs or any other medium in which they appear) without limitation in any manner or media that is accessible to the university community, external university partners, or the general public for any university purposes, including, but not limited to, educational, marketing, promotional, and publicity purposes. I am aware that I may update or withdraw these consents at any time, by emailing OptOut@jwu.edu; however, I acknowledge that such update or withdrawal may take a reasonable amount of time to process.
