Welcome from the Provost and Chief Academic Officer
Welcome to graduate study at Augsburg University! Augsburg has a long history of preparing our graduates for
leadership in their communities and places of work. Across our graduate programs, students bring perspectives
informed by prior study and experience; acquire specialized knowledge in a discipline or field; engage in collaborative
learning; develop advanced capacities; encounter diverse perspectives and ideas; test theory through real-world
experiences; and equip themselves for the next stage in their vocational journeys.
When you join the Augsburg community, you become part of the Augsburg story—a story of academic achievement,
experiential learning deepened by reflection, commitment to equity and intentional diversity, and dedication to lifelong
learning. We are an institution committed to place, and our locations—whether in the Twin Cities, Rochester, or
beyond—offer opportunities to apply what you learn in the classroom to the neighborhood, the local community, and in
various urban and rural locations.
Inspired by the faith of our Lutheran founders to be inclusive to the early immigrants who came to Augsburg’s doors, we
are a community of diverse cultures and faiths. Indeed, the diversity of our community helps ensure that our graduates
are uniquely prepared to meet the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century. Our commitment to interdisciplinary
thinking is embodied in our newest academic building on the Minneapolis campus--the Hagfors Center for Science,
Business, and Religion. We ground learning in the best of the liberal arts tradition, ensuring that our students are
prepared not only for their first job but for mid- and late-career success.
While connected through these common commitments, each graduate program has its own distinctive identity and
curriculum. Your program offers a disciplinary home from which you will join a community of faculty, staff, and fellow
students who will collectively extend your network of connections with prospective employers and expand your career
opportunities in the future.
We’re delighted that you’ll be joining us.
Sincerely,
Karen Kaivola
Provost and Chief Academic Officer

About Augsburg
At Augsburg University, we believe that graduate education should prepare gifted people for positions of leadership in
their communities and places of work. Augsburg graduates will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major
field of study, but also the ability to apply critical thinking, problem solving, and advanced communication skills in a
collaborative approach within that discipline, thereby engaging others with diverse perspectives in the work of
advancing civic and global initiatives critical for a sustainable future.
The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg mission, informed by the liberal and professional arts and sciences,
to serve our neighbors in the heart of the city and out into the world with faith-based, ethical values. We welcome
students from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences. Also, our programs look to the world through international
courses and cultural exchanges.
Mission Statement
Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to
the University motto, “Education for Service,” and mission:
Augsburg University educates students to be informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible
leaders. The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged community that is committed to intentional diversity in its
life and work. An Augsburg education is defined by excellence in the liberal arts and professional studies, guided by the
faith and values of the Lutheran Church, and shaped by its urban and global settings.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith
presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in Marshall, Wisconsin,
and moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1872. A Rochester, Minnesota campus was added in 2002. A short history of
Augsburg University can be found at www.augsburg.edu/about/history.
Today, Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of its founders who believed:
Education should have a solid liberal arts core at the graduate level; this focus centers on the ability to think critically
and broadly about the world and the work we do in it.
An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and centers of faith.
The city—with all its excitement, challenges, and diversity—is an unequaled learning environment.
The vision of the University’s work today is lived out in the phrase, “We believe we are called to serve our neighbor.”
Through common commitments to living faith, active citizenship, meaningful work, and global perspective, Augsburg
prepares its students to become effective, ethical citizens in a complex global society.

A Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg’s graduate programs is participation in a community of adult learners. This community
is enriched by the presence of men and women with a variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of
community interaction, Augsburg encourages students to make use of all University facilities, whether a student in
Minneapolis or Rochester, and to participate in University activities such as music and dramatic presentations and
lecture/speaker events.
Graduate Faculty
The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and Augsburg University is particularly proud of the excellence and
commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate or other terminal degree, and all consider teaching and
service to be the focus of their activity at the University. Faculty are involved in social, professional, and a variety of
research activities, but these support and are secondary to their teaching. Faculty are actively involved in a dynamic
faculty development program that introduces them to best practices in teaching and learning techniques and theories.
Augsburg’s small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students. Faculty act as
academic advisors and participate regularly in campus activities.

to students pursuant to FERPA. In accordance with FERPA, you are notified of the following:
Right to inspect and review education records
10
You have the right to review and inspect substantially all of your education records maintained by or at Augsburg
University. The student must request to review their education records in writing with their signature. The University

Right to request amendment of education records
You have the right to seek to have corrected any parts of an education record that you believe to be inaccurate,
misleading, or otherwise in violation of your right to privacy. This includes the right to a hearing to present evidence that
the record should be changed if Augsburg decides not to alter your education records according to your request.
Right to give permission for disclosure of personally identifiable information

professional responsibility.
Right to withhold disclosure of “directory information”
FERPA uses the term “Directory Information” to refer to those categories of personally identifiable information that may
be released for any purpose at the discretion of Augsburg University without notification of the request or disclosure to
the student.
Under FERPA you have the right to withhold the disclosure of the directory information listed below. Please consider
very carefully the consequences of any decision by you to withhold directory information. Should you decide to inform

such information be withheld. The Registrar’s Office must be notified in writing of your intent to withhold your Directory
Information.

Payments
Semester Charges
Prior to the start of each semester, a statement of estimated charges showing charges and financial aid credits
designated by the Student Financial Services Office is sent to the student via e-mail. All statements are available online
through AugNet’s Records and Registration site. Payments can be made online at
www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/make-a-payment. Augsburg may charge late fees and interest on delinquent
accounts. Review the full policy regarding past due balances online at www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/disclosure
Payment Options
Augsburg University offers payment plan options for all students. Information about payment plans is available online at
www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/payment-plans-and-discounts.
Payment Policy
Students at Augsburg University are obligated to pay Term Fees and additional charges when they register for each
academic term. “Term Fees” include tuition, room and board charges and other fees initiated during your time as a
16
student. Students are responsible to pay for all of these charges regardless of whether financial aid is received or
employers or other third parties pay as agreed. “Term Fees” are subject to refund only to the extent allowed under the
Augsburg University Tuition Refund Policy.
Augsburg accepts the following forms of payment:
Cash
Students and guest payers may make cash payments in-person at the Enrollment Center. Cash should never be
mailed. Students will receive a receipt of their cash payment.
Check
Students and guest payers may pay their term fees via check either in-person at the Enrollment Center, through mail, or
online using e-check/ACH. A $30 NSF Fee will be added for any payment returned by the bank for Non-Sufficient
Funds. A receipt will automatically be sent electronically for any online payments. Students who pay in-person or
through mail may request a receipt of the check payment.
Credit Card/Debit Card
Students and guest payers may make student account payments online with a Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American
Express credit card. As of June 10th, 2016, Augsburg will no longer accept credit card or debit card payments in-person,
over the phone, or through the mail. Credit cards will only be accepted online via Cashnet, a vendor contracted by
Augsburg.
Because Cashnet charges Augsburg for their services, a credit card service fee of 2.75 percent will be associated with any
credit card payment made to the University. This is to offset the approximately $250,000 in costs that Augsburg accrues
annually for providing credit card payment options to our students. Augsburg will not receive any part of the service fee
and will not be profiting from it.
Financial Aid
All students who wish to be considered for financial assistance must reapply each year. In addition to reapplying for aid,
students must make satisfactory academic progress toward the attainment of their degree or certificate as stipulated in
the Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) section of this catalog.
Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg may be a combination of grants and loans. The University cooperates
with federal, state, church, and private agencies in providing various aid programs.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) helps determine the amount of assistance for which a student is
eligible. This analysis takes into account such family financial factors as current income, assets, number of dependent
family members, other educational expenses, retirement needs, and special considerations.
Types of Aid
A student applying for aid from Augsburg applies for assistance in general rather than for a specific scholarship or grant
(except as noted).
Institutional Grants/Discounts
Augsburg offers grants/discounts for a variety of different students. Specific information about the different grants and
scholarships, along with eligibility requirements, can be found online at www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/paymentplans-and-discounts.
Loan Assistance
Graduate students must be enrolled at least half-time in order to receive federal loans. Three semester credits per term
is considered half-time. Six semester credits per term is considered full-time.
Federal Unsubsidized Stafford Student Loan
17
Interest begins accruing on the date of disbursement and the borrower is responsible for all interest. The borrower
may choose to make payments while in school or may defer payments and allow interest to accrue and be
capitalized (added to the balance of the loan).
Federal Graduate Loan Program (PLUS)
Graduate PLUS is a loan program to help graduate students meet college costs. Students may borrow up to the cost
of attendance (minus all other student financial aid).
Further information about loan programs can be found online at www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial.
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)
Federal regulations require that all higher education institutions establish and implement a policy to measure whether
students [1] receiving financial aid [2] are making satisfactory academic progress toward the completion of a degree.
The purpose of this policy is to make sure that students who receive financial aid are using this money wisely. It is meant
to curtail the use of financial aid by students who fail to successfully complete their course work. Failure to meet the
following standards makes a student ineligible for all institutional, federal, and state financial aid.
Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress
Minimum GPA requirements: Graduate Students must maintain a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA based on the entire
academic record.
Minimum Credits Completed: Graduate Students must earn a cumulative 66.67% of the credits attempted based on
the entire academic record. A completed credit has a grade of A – D- or P. Credits earned and completed will include
accepted cumulative transfer credits as defined by the Registrar’s Office. Unsatisfactory grades “W (withdrawn),” “I
(Incomplete),” “F/FN (Zero),” and “N (Not Passing)” are counted towards the cumulative attempted credits.
Repeated and remedial courses are not counted towards the cumulative attempted credits.
Maximum Time Frame: To demonstrate academic progress, graduate students must complete their degree objective
within 150% of the length of the program.
Monitoring and Evaluating Progress
In order to ensure SAP standards are being met, the Student Financial Services Office will evaluate students’ academic
achievement at the end of each term. After the student’s record is evaluated and the Student Financial Services Office
determines the student’s GPA or completion rate to be unsatisfactory, the student will be placed on Financial Aid
Warning or Financial Aid Suspension. Students will be notified through their Augsburg email if they fail to meet SAP
standards.
Financial Aid Warning
A student who fails to meet SAP standards will be placed on Financial Aid Warning for the following term of enrollment.
Students placed on Financial Aid Warning will still be eligible to receive financial aid. Financial Aid Warning will last for
one term. If at the end of the term, the student meets SAP standards the Financial Aid Warning will conclude. Students
currently on Financial Aid Warning who do not meet SAP standards at the end of the term will be placed on Financial Aid
Suspension.
Financial Aid Suspension
A student who fails to meet either the minimum GPA requirement and/or minimum credits attempted while on
Financial Aid Warning will be placed on Financial Aid Suspension. A student on Financial Aid Suspension is ineligible to
receive any form of financial aid. A student on Financial Aid Suspension may submit an appeal to reinstate their financial
aid. Financial Aid Suspension will conclude when the student meets SAP standards, or successfully appeals.
Financial Aid will be suspended when a student placed on Financial Aid Suspension does not meet SAP standards.
Because grades may not be available before the beginning of the next scheduled term, it is possible that financial aid
may be disbursed to a student before the review can be conducted. In the event that a student is found to be ineligible
for the financial aid that has been disbursed due to a failure to meet one of the Standards, the aid that was disbursed
will be canceled, and returned to the appropriate program(s).
18
Right to Appeal
Students who have had their financial aid suspended may submit the SAP Appeal Form to the Student Financial Services
Office. The SAP Appeal Form must be completely filled out, along with any additional documents required by the SAP
Committee. The appeal should state reasons why the student failed to meet SAP standards, and what changed for the
student that will allow the student to demonstrate progress towards meeting SAP standards. The appeal will be decided
by the SAP Committee. All decisions made by the Committee are final.
If a student’s appeal is approved they will be placed on Financial Aid Probation. If a student’s appeal is denied they will
remain on Financial Aid Suspension and will remain ineligible for financial aid.
Financial Aid Probation
A student who has been placed on Financial Aid Suspension and successfully appeals SAP will be place on Financial Aid
Probation. A student on Financial Aid Probation will be eligible to receive financial aid. Financial Aid Probation will last
for one term. If at the end of the term, the students meets SAP standards, the Financial Aid Probation will conclude.
Students currently on Financial Aid Probation who do not meet the standards at the end of the term will be placed on
Financial Aid Suspension.
[1] Financial Aid is defined as: Augsburg Institutional Aid, Federal Title IV funding, and Minnesota
State Financial Aid programs.
Student Account Financial Disclosure
Students at Augsburg University are obligated to pay Term Fees and additional charges when they register for each
academic term. “Term Fees” include tuition, room and board charges and other fees initiated during your time as a
student. Students are responsible to pay for all of these charges regardless of whether financial aid is received or
employers or other third parties pay as agreed. “Term Fees” are subject to refund only to the extent allowed under the
Augsburg University Tuition Refund Policy. Statements and account history are available online through AugNet Records
and Registration.
Augsburg University may require someone to co-sign on the students’ obligations in special cases, such as when a
student has a history of late or missed payments. When a co-signer’s signature is required, both students and co-signers
are responsible for payment of all costs incurred (including collection costs and fees of any collection agency and/or
attorney, if applicable) and all other conditions outlined on the Student Account Financial Disclosure.
Results of Balances Not Paid in Full
Augsburg may charge late fees and interest on delinquent accounts. Missed or late payments will be subject to a late
payment charge and/or a finance charge on the overdue balance from the date the balance was due until payment in
full is received. If your account is not paid in full on the first day of the term, finance charges at the rate of 8% per year
(.67% per month) will be added onto your student account balance. For example, this means that for every $1,000
owed you will receive $6.70 a month in finance charges. A $30 NSF Fee will be added for any payment returned by the
bank for Non-Sufficient Funds.
Past Due Accounts
If the student does not set up a formal payment plan with Augsburg’s Student Financial Services department, Augsburg
reserves the right to demand payment of the entire balance owed by that student and to take steps to collect it.
Augsburg may cancel the student’s registration, prevent the student from registering for future terms, withhold
transcripts or diplomas, remove the student from on-campus housing, turn the student’s account over to a collection
agency or take legal action to collect any past due balance. Each student authorizes Augsburg to release financial
information about her or his account and other pertinent information such as address and phone number to third
parties who are dealing with the collection of the account balance. By providing us with a telephone number for a
cellular phone or other wireless device, you are expressly consenting to receive communications – including but not
limited to prerecorded or artificial voice message calls, text messages, and calls made by an automatic telephone dialing
19
system – from us and our affiliates and agents at that number. This express consent applies to each such telephone
number that you provide to us now or in the future and permits such calls regardless of their purpose. Calls and
messages may incur access fees from your cellular provider. Each student also agrees to reimburse Augsburg University,
or its agents, the fees of any collection agency, which may be based on a percentage at a maximum of 40% of the debt,
and all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, we incur in such collection efforts. Please note that,
due to the Bankruptcy Reform Act, educational benefits are generally exempt from discharge under bankruptcy. The
terms of this agreement remain in effect until all Term Fees and other charges are paid in full.
Financial Policy
Registration is permitted only if the student’s account for a previous term is paid in full or if the student is making
scheduled payments in accordance with an approved payment plan.
Augsburg University will not release student academic transcripts or graduation diplomas/certificates until all student
account charges are paid in full or, in the case of student loan funds administered by the University (Federal Perkins
Student Loan), are current according to established repayment schedules and the loan entrance and exit interviews have
been completed.
Tuition Refund
Students are eligible for a 100% tuition refund for any courses they drop without notation through the date labeled “Last
day to drop without a ‘W’ grade & 100% refund – Full Semester class” on the Academic Calendar. After this date,
students are no longer eligible for any refund of tuition unless they withdraw from all of their courses. This policy is
effective whether or not a student has attended classes.
Students withdrawing from all of a term’s courses may receive a 50% tuition refund when they withdraw by the date
labeled “Last day to withdraw with 50% refund – Full Semester class” on the Academic Calendar.
Students are responsible for cancelling courses through the Registrar’s Office (or online) in order to be eligible for any
refund. Students who unofficially withdraw (stop attending) but do not complete the drop/add form are responsible for
all charges. Financial aid may be adjusted based on the student’s last recorded date of attendance. Refund calculations
are based on the date that the drop/add form is processed.
Medical Refund
If a student is forced to withdraw from one or more courses in a term due to illness or an accident, a request for a
medical refund should be made through the Academic/Financial Petition. Petition forms are available through the
Registrar’s Office website. An extra medical refund may be granted by the Committee upon submission of
documentation from the attending doctor, on letterhead, verifying the medical circumstances.
Unofficial Withdrawal
Federal regulations require that records of financial aid recipients who earn failing grades in all their classes be
reviewed. If courses are not completed (e.g., unofficial withdrawal, stopped attending), the University is required to
refund financial aid to the appropriate sources according to federal or Augsburg refund policies based on the last
recorded date of attendance. Students are responsible for the entire cost of the term including the portion previously
covered by financial aid should they stop attending. Students are strongly urged to follow guidelines for complete
withdrawal. If there are extenuating circumstances, a petition to have the cost of tuition refunded can be made. Petition
forms are available online through the Registrar’s Office website.
A student who registers, does not attend any classes, and does not withdraw may petition to withdraw retroactively.
The student must petition within six months of the end of term and provide proof of non-attendance. Proof can include,
but is not limited to, statements from each instructor that the student never attended, or documentation of attendance
for the term at another college or university. If approved, grades of W will be recorded and tuition charges for the term
will be replaced with an administrative cancellation fee of $300.
20
Financial Aid Policy
Financial aid such as federal, state, and institutional grants and scholarships are awarded based upon the total number
of registered credits on the “Last day to add with faculty signature – Full Semester class” as noted on the Academic
Calendar. Students must register for internships, Time 2 classes, and ACTC classes before the “Last day to add with
faculty signature-Full Semester class”. Financial aid will not be adjusted for classes added after this date.
Students must earn the financial aid they are awarded each semester by actively attending and participating in classes
throughout the semester. Financial aid is recalculated when students do any of the following: drop classes without a
“W” grade, fail to begin classes, cease to attend classes, fail all classes, or fully withdraw from all classes.
Financial Aid - Return of Aid
Students must earn the financial aid they are awarded each semester. A student can earn their aid by attending classes,
or in the event of hybrid/online courses, be an active participant in the course.
Federal/State Aid Adjustments
Augsburg is required to return unearned federal/state aid for students who fully withdraw from their courses. Student
are eligible to keep more aid the longer they attend their courses. After 60% of the term has passed, students are
eligible to keep all of their federal/state aid. If you are planning to completely withdraw from your courses, please see a
Student Financial Services counselor to determine what aid may need to be returned.
Institutional Aid Adjustments
Augsburg will return institutional aid for students who partially withdraw or fully withdraw from courses. If students
withdraw from their courses they will receive a 50% tuition refund and 50% of their institutional aid will be removed. If a
student withdraws after the last day to receive a tuition refund, there will be no adjustment to their institutional aid.
Credit Refund
Augsburg students may be eligible to receive a credit refund if their financial aid exceeds tuition and fee charges for a
term. Credit refunds are issued within two weeks after the last day to drop courses without recorded notation. Financial
Aid needs to be finalized (You can verify your financial aid status online through Track Your Financial Aid) and applied to
a student’s account (Check your Transaction History online to verify all of your financial aid has been applied to your
account and nothing is left pending) before the credit refund can be issued.
Changes in enrollment status, housing status, and program status may affect financial aid eligibility and credit refunds.
Students who are enrolled less than half-time (less than 6.0 credits for undergraduates, less than 3.0 credit for
graduates) may not be eligible for financial aid; however, students may apply for private alternative loans. Registration
changes made from the first week of the term through midterm may require a return of financial aid funds. Students
who drop courses may receive a tuition refund, but some forms of financial aid may have to be adjusted before a refund
will be available. Financial aid return of funds may take up to 30-45 days to be processed.
Bookstore
Students who are registered for the upcoming term will be allowed to charge up to $700 to their student account.
Students DO NOT need to request a bookstore account this year.
Please plan ahead and purchase books and supplies before the scheduled cut off dates; plan ahead for courses that start
midterm as you will be unable to charge anything to your student account after the cut-off date.
Students’ accounts will be billed for only what was spent on their bookstore accounts before credit refunds are issued. If
your bookstore charges create a balance on your account, you need to make payments in accordance with your
statement. Bookstore purchases charged to a student account are intended for students who have excess financial aid
funds to cover their tuition, fees, AND their books or supplies. Please contact Student Financial Services before you
purchase books if you need to discuss payment options.
Due to the financial aid cycle, you can only charge expenses to your bookstore account during specific times.
21
Third Party
If you are expecting a third party to cover the cost of your books, you will need to turn in an itemized receipt of your
purchases to the Student Financial Services Office, along with your invoice request.
Additional Funds
If the cost of your textbooks and supplies are above $700 in one term, you have enough financial aid to cover the
additional costs, and you would like to charge the additional amount to your student account, please send the following
information to Student Financial Services (studentfinances@augsburg.edu). All requests need to be in writing.
Subject: Request for additional funds
Full Name:
Student ID number:
Additional request:
Students will receive an e-mail when the additional request has been processed. Accounts are opened as quickly as
possible, but it could take up to two business days for activation.
Consumer Information
Loss of Financial Aid Due to Drug Offense
A student, who is convicted of a state or federal offense involving the possession or sale of an illegal drug that occurred
while the student was enrolled in school and receiving Title IV aid, is not eligible for Title IV funds. [An illegal drug is a
controlled substance as defined by the Controlled Substance Act and does not include alcohol and tobacco.
A borrower’s eligibility is based on the student’s self-certification on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA). Convictions that are reversed, set aside or removed from the student’s record, or a determination arising from
a juvenile court proceeding do not affect eligibility and do not need to be reported by the student.
A student who is convicted of a drug-related offense that occurred while the student was enrolled in school and
receiving Title IV aid loses Title IV eligibility as follows:
For the possession of illegal drugs:
First offense: one year from the date of conviction.
Second offense: two years from the date of the second conviction.
Third offense: indefinitely from the date of the third conviction.
For the sale of illegal drugs:
First offense: two years from the date of conviction.
Second offense: indefinitely from the date of the second conviction.
A school must provide a student who loses Title IV eligibility due to a drug-related conviction with a timely, separate,
clear, and conspicuous written notice. The notice must advise the student of his or her loss of Title IV eligibility and the
ways in which the student may regain that eligibility.
Regaining Eligibility after a Drug Conviction
A student may regain eligibility at any time by completing an approved drug rehabilitation program and by informing the
school that he or she has done so. A student regains Title IV eligibility on the date he or she successfully completes the
program. A drug rehabilitation program is considered approved for these purposes if it includes at least two
unannounced drug tests and meets one of the following criteria:
22
The program received or is qualified to receive funds directly or indirectly under a federal, state, or local government
program.
The program is administered or recognized by a federal, state, or local government agency or court.
The program received or is qualified to receive payment directly or indirectly from a federally or state licensed
insurance company.
The program administered or recognized by a federally or state-licensed hospital, health clinic, or medical doctor.
Policies may change throughout an academic year if necessary to comply with federal, state, or institutional changes or
regulations.

Center for Learning and Accessible Student Services (CLASS)
The Center for Learning and Accessible Student Services (CLASS) provides individualized accommodations and academic
support for students with documented learning, attention, psychiatric, sensory, and physical disabilities, as well as those
with temporary disabilities. CLASS has been recognized as a leader in its field, helping these students gain access to the
curriculum. Its mission is a reflection of Augsburg’s commitment to providing a rigorous and challenging, yet supportive,
liberal arts education to students with diverse backgrounds, preparations, and experiences.
Each term, Disability Specialists work directly with students to develop a plan for ensuring they have equal access to
Augsburg courses, programs, activities, and facilities. Students are encouraged to meet regularly with their specialist,
and discussions may include:
Accommodations for testing and coursework (e.g., extended time, note-taking)
Referrals to other campus resources (e.g., tutoring, student technology assistance, academic advising, counseling,
financial aid)
Training and use of assistive technology through the Groves Accommodations Laboratory
Coaching on academic, organizational, and time management skills
Campus living accommodations
The Disability Specialists may also consult with instructors, academic advisors, and other members of the faculty, staff,
or administration to support each student as they work toward success. Taking advantage of these accommodations and
services, however, remains the student’s responsibility.
Any Augsburg student who wants to establish eligibility for accommodations and services should schedule a meeting
with a Specialist to discuss their needs, as well as appropriate documentation of their disability. CLASS also provides
informal screenings for students who suspect they may have a learning-related disability. These screenings are meant
only to help students determine whether they should seek a thorough evaluation by a qualified professional.
Academic accommodations are intended to ensure access to educational opportunities for students with disabilities and
may not fundamentally alter the basic nature or essential components of an institution’s courses or programs.
The services and technology provided by CLASS are enhanced by the generous support of the Gage family and Groves
Foundation. For further information, call 612-330-1053.
International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS)
ISSS is responsible for the enrollment planning, recruitment and advising of degree-seeking international
students. Members of the ISSS team serve as Designated School Officials (DSO) for the University’s F-1 student visa
program and as Responsible Officer (RO) and Alternate Responsible Officer (ARO) for the University’s J-1 student/scholar
exchange program. A DSO ensures institutional and individual compliance with the law and government policies
pertaining to F-1 students. The RO and ARO ensure institutional and individual compliance with the law and government
policies pertaining to J-1 exchange students and scholars. ISSS advises students regarding the F and J regulations so that
students maintain their F or J immigration status.

Academic Policies and Procedures
Academic Calendars
All graduate programs meet on a semester calendar. The Academic Calendars can be found at
www.augsburg.edu/registrar. All academic calendars are subject to change without notice.
Academic Policies
The University and its faculty subscribe to the Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom as promulgated by the
American Association of University Professors and the Association of American Colleges.
Academic Honesty
A university is a community of learners whose relationship relies on trust. Honesty is necessary to preserve the integrity
and credibility of scholarship by the Augsburg University community. Academic dishonesty, therefore, is not tolerated.
As a University requirement, student course projects, papers, and examinations may include a statement by the student
pledging to abide by the University’s academic honesty policies and to uphold the highest standards of academic
integrity. (See Augsburg’s Academic Honesty Policy in the Student Guide).
Evaluation and Grading
Evaluation of academic performance is based on letter grades using an A ‐ F scale. Grading option cannot be changed
from traditional (A - F) to Pass/No Credit.

courses.
Pass/No Pass Grades
In graduate courses, the grading option cannot be changed from the traditional A ‐ F grading scale to the Pass/No Pass
grading system.
26
Some graduate courses only use the Pass/No Pass grading system. In order to receive a grade of P, students must
achieve at least a grade of B.
Incomplete (I) Grades
Incomplete grades (I) are to be given only in the case of extreme emergency (i.e. illness, family emergency, death in the
family, military commitment). If you have any questions regarding the qualifying emergency please contact the
Registrar’s Office for verification.
An incomplete grade (I) may be awarded when the instructor grants permission after determining that a student
emergency may delay completion of coursework. Students who receive an incomplete grade should be capable of
passing the course if they satisfactorily complete outstanding course requirements.
To receive an incomplete grade, a student must file an Application for Incomplete Grade form with the Registrar’s Office
that states the reasons for the request, outlines the work required to complete the course, and includes the course
instructor’s signature. The instructor may stipulate the terms and conditions that apply to course completion; however,
students may not attend the same course (or a portion of the same course) in a following term with an incomplete
grade. The student must complete the outstanding work in enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the
instructor and the filing of a grade before the final day of the following academic term in the student’s program. If the
work is not completed by the specified date of the following academic term, the grade for the course becomes 0.0.
Extension (X) Grades
Internships, independent studies, and directed studies may sometimes last longer than one term. When this is the case,
they must be completed by the grading deadlines within one year from the beginning of the first term of registration. A
grade of X (extension) is given by the instructor to indicate that the study is extended. It is expected that students given
X extensions will continue to communicate with their instructors and demonstrate that satisfactory progress is being
maintained. A final grade will be issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and evaluated (but not
longer than one year). An instructor has the right to not grant an extension where satisfactory progress is not
demonstrated. If the course is not completed, a grade of F will be assigned.
Withdrawal (W) Grade
A course is given a grade of W (withdrawn) when it is dropped after the deadline for dropping classes without a W grade
and before the last day to withdraw. Withdrawals negatively impact credit completion rate but do not negatively impact
the grade point average.
Repeated Courses
A course in which a grade of F, FN, D-, D, D+, C-, C, C+, B-, or N has been received may be repeated for credit. Courses in
which higher grades have been earned may not be repeated for credit and a grade, but may be audited (exceptions are
made for academic programs with minimum grade requirements of a B+ or higher or other catalog policies that require
a course to be retaken). All courses taken each semester and grades earned, including W and N, will be recorded on the
academic record. Only the credits and grades earned for the most recent attempt, for legitimately repeated courses, are
counted toward graduation and in the grade point average. Courses completed at Augsburg University must be repeated
at Augsburg to be included in the repeat policy.
Auditing Courses
Students who wish to take courses without credit or grade may do so by registering for Audit (V) on a space-available
basis. Graduate students will be charged an audit fee of $1,000. The signature of the instructor is required to register an
audit. Students who audit a course should confer with the instructor within two weeks of the beginning of the term to
determine expectations, attendance, and any other requirements. If expectations have been met, the course will be
listed on the transcript with a V grade. If expectations have not been met, the course will be listed with a grade of W.
Audited courses do not count towards graduation.

Grade Point Average
The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade
points for work transferred from other institutions.
The formula for calculating the GPA = Total grade points divided by number of credits attempted with A to F grades
assigned.
The following grading symbols are not included in the GPA calculation:

Attendance
Attendance and participation are critical to the success of any course. Evaluation of the level and quality of participation
may be incorporated into the course grade. We view attendance as a joint commitment of both instructors and students
to our professional development. Each instructor has the authority to specify attendance and participation requirements
to address the needs of particular courses, individual students, or various learning styles.
Lack of attendance may result in a failing grade and the requirement to repeat the course. Students must notify the
professor in advance of any expected absence. In the case of emergency, when prior notification is not possible,
students must notify the professor of an absence as soon as possible.
Non-Attendance/Non-Participation
Attendance/participation in class is important for academic success and financial aid. Therefore, students are dropped
for non-attendance/non-participation after the 10th business day of the term if reported by the instructor. Students are
ultimately responsible for dropping classes if they no longer plan to attend/participate. Students who have been
dropped and wish to re-enroll must submit an Academic/Financial Petition.
Graduate Continuation Policy
Students registering for the final project course must complete the Final Project Registration/Graduate Continuation
Contract by the last day to add with faculty signature for a Full Semester class as noted on the Academic Calendar. Upon
receipt of the contract, the Registrar’s Office will enroll the student in the Continuation Program for 7 semesters. Entry
into the Continuation Program maintains students’ active status in the graduate program, including library and AugNet
Services.
If a grade is not received by the grading deadline of the 7th semester, the grade will change from X to N. Students who
wish to complete the final project after receiving a failing grade must meet with the program director to evaluate
readmission to the University and program. Students who are readmitted may need to complete additional coursework
28
and will need to pay tuition and fees for any additional courses. If/when the final project course is completed, the new
grade would replace the previous N grade.
Students may withdraw from the University, and thus from the Continuation Program and the final project course, at
any point during the continuation period and receive a W notation on the transcript for the final project course.
Following a withdrawal, students are welcome to meet with the program director to evaluate readmission to the
University and program. Students who are readmitted may need to complete additional coursework and will need to
pay full tuition and fees for any additional courses. If/when the final project course is completed, the new grade would
replace the previous W grade.
Credit and Contact Hours
Augsburg’s credit hour policy follows the federal guidelines in defining a semester credit hour as one fifty-minute period
of instruction and 100 minutes of out-of-class work per week for fifteen weeks, or the equivalent amount of student
work completed over a different time frame or via a different delivery method.
All Augsburg programs follow the semester calendar with semester lengths from 14-16 weeks. Augsburg offers a
summer semester which follows the same format as both fall and spring semester. Students must take at least 3 credits
to be considered half-time, and 6 or more credits to be considered full-time. Students may take up to 22 credits.
Degree Requirements
To be conferred the graduate degree, all graduate students must achieve the following:
Successful completion of all required courses
A cumulative GPA of 3.0; Physician Assistant students must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
Successful completion of all degree requirements within the stipulated period of matriculation or a signed
continuation agreement with Augsburg University.
Probation and Dismissal
Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the
student will be placed on academic probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be
restored in order for a student to be removed from probation. Graduate students in the Physician Assistant must consult
the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
A student whose GPA falls below the required GPA for his/her graduate program (3.0 in most programs) in two or more
terms may be subject to probation or dismissal. A plan for the student to continue in the program may be worked out
with the program director.
Students may also be dismissed for violation of standards of behavior defined by their profession, their program, or the
University.
Dismissal Appeals Process
A student may appeal a program’s dismissal decision using the University’s program dismissal appeals process. Appeals
are limited to procedural errors that the student can demonstrate negatively affected the outcome.
The student initiates the appeal process by submitting a hard copy of the statement of appeal to the Assistant Vice
President of Academic Affairs and Dean of Graduate Studies (AVP-Graduate Studies); email is not acceptable. The
statement must identify each procedural error and state how each error negatively affected the outcome. The
statement of appeal will be the only basis of the student’s appeal. The AVP-Graduate Studies must receive the student’s
statement of appeal within 14 calendar days of the date on the department’s written notification of dismissal.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the statement of appeal to the program chair/director. The program must
submit a response to the student’s statement of appeal within 15 business days of the date that the statement was
29
received by the AVP-Graduate Studies’ office. A hard copy of the program’s response should be submitted to the AVPGraduate Studies. The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the program’s response to the student.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will convene the Program Dismissal Appeals Committee, which will include the AVP-Graduate
Studies as a non-voting chair and three program faculty members (one from programs not named in the appeal:
Business, Creative Writing, Education, Leadership, Nursing, Physician Assistant Studies, Social Work). The Program
Dismissal Appeals Committee will schedule its hearing within 15 business days of receipt of the program’s statement of
response. The Committee will meet with the student and a program representative to review the procedures and ask
questions of both the student and the program representative. The student and program representative may each bring
a third party to the review meeting (limited to an Augsburg University faculty member, staff member, or student). The
role of the third party representative is to provide support to the student or the program representative, not to serve as
an advocate during the meeting.
Dropping or Withdrawing
Courses may be dropped or withdrawn online through AugNet Records and Registration or with a Registration Form. For
drop and withdrawal deadlines see the Academic Calendar.
Independent Study
Students may request to complete an independent study course as an addition to the required coursework. A faculty
sponsor is required for an independent study project, and project proposals must be approved by the program director
in order to receive credit. Normally, independent study may not be used as a replacement for a standard course offered
in the curriculum, with the exception of the general elective (if approved). A special Directed/Independent Study
Registration form is required.
Term Off
Students may take up to two semesters off and have continued access to Augsburg email and AugNet Services. If a
student is not registered after 10th day of the third semester, the student’s file will be deactivated and the student will
need to submit an Application for Readmission to re-enroll.
For an absence of any length, students should coordinate with their program director prior to leaving. Due to a variety of
program schedules and cohorts for some degrees, it is required that students meet with their advisor and obtain the
advice of their director.
Evaluation of Transfer Credit
Students may petition the program director for transfer credit to apply to program requirements. The transfer of credit
will be evaluated on an individual basis. Students will be asked to provide appropriate documentation regarding
previous coursework, including but not limited to an official transcript, course description, and syllabus. In order to be
considered for transfer, a course must be from a regionally-accredited college or university and graded B or better.
Courses must have been taken at the graduate level and course content must be comparable to program requirements
at Augsburg.
The maximum number of semester credits that can be transferred is:
Master of Arts in Education (6)
Master of Arts in Leadership (6)
Master of Arts in Nursing (9)
Master of Business Administration (18)
Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing (12)
Master of Music Therapy (Contact program director)
Master of Science, Physician Assistant Studies (Contact program coordinator)
30
Master of Social Work (22)
Doctor of Nursing Practice (Contact program director)
Augsburg credits are calculated in semester hours. If you completed courses at other institutions that are quarter hours,
they will be converted to semester hours. One quarter hour equates to two-thirds of a semester hour.
Courses and credits that are accepted in transfer are recorded on the student’s transcript. Grades and grade points from
other institutions are not transferred to Augsburg and are not included in the student’s cumulative grade point average.

Master of Arts in Education
Augsburg has a long history in teacher education with alumni of our programs teaching throughout Minnesota and
elsewhere. The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program combines our excellent undergraduate licensure coursework
with a master’s level coursework focused on teacher leadership, preparing teachers to serve K-12 students effectively
and to nurture healthy change within schools and school systems.
Our Philosophy
The Education Department program themes include relationships, reflection and inquiry, diversity and equity, and
leadership. One of these themes - leadership - is lived out within the MAE program. As this program theme suggests, we
expect our students to leave our programs as responsive, knowledgeable teachers prepared to exercise leadership in the
classroom and, eventually, the school and community.
Our urban setting provides yet another dimension to our programs through a combination of course content, field
experiences, and classroom instructors. Our goal is that students will leave our programs as collaborative and capable
teachers committed to educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
Our Faculty
Augsburg faculty members who teach in the MAE program are a mix of full-time and adjunct instructors, all of whom
have K-12 teaching experience. Many adjunct instructors are currently teaching in K-12 settings; all full-time faculty
members are frequent visitors to K-12 settings through student teaching and field experience supervision, volunteer
work, and/or in-service education. We understand the importance of what we do and what you hope to do. We value
good teaching and, most especially, we value good teachers.
Our Accessibility
We realize that although teaching is your dream, your reality most likely includes work, family, and personal
responsibilities. Because we understand the demands adult students face, we offer flexible scheduling. A majority of
licensure and graduate-level courses are taught in the evenings to allow you to manage these responsibilities while
pursuing your goals. You will need to be available during the weekday for the challenge and responsibility of field
experiences, but education coursework is accessible through the evening schedules*.
As a student in Augsburg’s Master of Arts in Education licensure and degree program, you will find yourself among
interesting students and dedicated professors who believe that all children deserve a good, highly-qualified teacher—
the teacher you can become.
Education Department Mission
The mission of the Augsburg Education Department is to develop responsive, knowledgeable teachers committed to
educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
Program Overview
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) is designed to provide a teaching license as part of a master’s degree program. K12 initial teaching licenses offered at Augsburg include:
Elementary education (K-6), with or without a middle school content area endorsement in math, communication
arts, social studies, or science. Subject matter courses for these endorsements may need to be taken in the weekday
schedule or at a community college when unavailable through evening course work.
Secondary education (5-12 and K-12) in social studies, communication arts/literature, visual arts, health,
mathematics, music, and physical education, 9-12 in biology, chemistry, and physics, and 5-8 general science .
Subject matter courses for these licenses may need to be taken in the weekday schedule or at a community college
32
when unavailable through evening course work. Augsburg requires that at least two content area courses are taken
at Augsburg.
Teachers who are already licensed can work towards the MAE degree through the following four licensure endorsement
options:
K-12 English as a Second Language
K-12 Special Education: Academic Behavior Strategist
All teachers seeking licensure through Augsburg must take and pass all tests required by the state of Minnesota for
licensure. These include tests in basic skills, pedagogy and content area knowledge.
Accreditations and Approvals
Augsburg University Teacher Education programs are approved by:
Minnesota Board of Teaching. (MN BOT)
Augsburg University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. For a complete list of Augsburg’s accreditations,
approvals, and memberships, see the listing in the Accreditation, Approvals, and Memberships section of this catalog.
Program Structure
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program is made up of a core of education licensure courses at the graduate level
coupled with a degree completion option. Courses in the degree completion phase are drawn from the Master of Arts in
Leadership (MAL) and graduate courses in education. Most students in the MAE program pursue a teaching license as
part of their program plan.
The MAE degree is also open to students who do not want a teaching license but do want a background in education
and leadership. See the MAE program director for details.
The MAE degree requires ten or eleven Augsburg graduate level courses, depending on the degree completion option. In
addition, several courses at the undergraduate level are required for licensure. Only courses taken at the graduate level
apply towards the MAE degree.
Credit
MAE graduate level courses are offered for 3 semester credits. Each course is comprised of 37.5 instructional hours with
the expectation of about 75 hours of independent study outside of class.
Schedule
The majority of the education courses in the MAE licensure and degree programs are offered through the AU evening
schedule. Courses in this schedule meet face to face every other week with online instruction during the alternate
weeks. A few education courses and many undergraduate content area courses are offered in a face to face, classroom
based format, meeting weekly in the evenings. The MAL and education degree completion courses are offered primarily
in a weekend schedule through a mix of face-to-face and online instruction. Summer session courses are offered
primarily weekday evenings. Summer courses are offered in a mix of formats from all online to all face-to-face.
The following teaching licenses are available entirely through the evening and summer schedule: elementary education,
K-12 special education, and K-12 English as a second language.
Additional licenses in the following areas are available through a combination of weekday, weekday evening, summer
schedules, and, occasional off-campus courses: biology, chemistry, communication arts, health, mathematics, music,
physical education, physics, and social studies. For these licenses, the education and degree completion courses are
taken weekday evenings and summer while some, if not all, of the content area courses are taken during the weekday
and/or off-campus.
33
The weekday evening schedule is comprised of two semesters spread from early September through late April. In
general, classes are held every other week, face to face with online instruction in the intervening week. The weekday
schedule is also comprised of two semesters spread from early September through late April. Classes offered during the
weekday meet one to three times per week. Classes offered jointly between weekday and weekend meet on a weekly
basis in the evening. The official academic calendars can be found at www.augsburg.edu/registrar.
Curriculum—Teaching Licenses
K-6 Elementary Education
This program is designed to prepare teachers for grades K-6. Optional endorsements in middle school specialty areas of
math, science, social studies, and communication arts can be pursued along with or separately from the K-6 license. The
teaching license and some endorsements are offered at both undergraduate and graduate levels through a mix of
undergraduate courses and combined graduate and undergraduate courses. Graduate-level licensure coursework (500
and above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and have been admitted to the MAE program.
All of the following courses must be taken for K-6 elementary licensure. Up to twenty‐one graduate level credits of

These experiences occur in K-6 classrooms during the weekday. If more than one course with field experience is taken in
a given term, field experience requirements expand accordingly (i.e., two courses with 20 hours of field experience each
require a total of 40 hours).
Undergraduate Liberal Arts Requirements
The number of supporting content area courses required for licensure depends upon the courses completed as part of
the bachelor’s degree and/or other coursework. Requirements are determined by Minnesota licensure standards for
specific college-level coursework in math, biology, physics, and earth science for all students seeking elementary
licensure. Specific requirements are on file in the Education Department.
34
Minnesota licensure standards allow for optional subject area endorsements in communication arts/literature, social
studies, math, and science. Subject matter courses for these endorsements will be available through a combination of
weekday, evening and off-campus courses. Specific requirements for these endorsements are on file in the Education
Department.
Previous coursework can be accepted into the licensure program if it meets Minnesota standards and if a grade of C or
better was achieved. The Education Department and the content area departments determine the courses that are
accepted. Transcripts, course descriptions, and course syllabi are used to make these determinations. Courses that are
older than five years are judged on a case-by-case basis. Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is
not automatically accepted into the MAE degree. The program has limits on the amount and type of courses that are
accepted. Grades of B or better are required for transfer consideration. See the MAE program director for approval of
graduate coursework accepted in transfer.
K-12 and 5-12 Secondary Education
K-12 and 5-12 licenses in several content areas are offered through a combination of graduate and undergraduate
coursework. K-12 licenses prepare teachers to teach a content area across elementary, middle school, and high school.
Licenses for grades 5- 12 prepare teachers to teach at the middle and high school levels. Graduate-level licensure
coursework (500 and above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and meet MAE admissions
criteria.
Subject matter courses in the following majors are offered on weekday evenings and summer: English, communications
(for communication arts), art and selected social science courses. Students seeking 5–12 licensure in social studies must
complete a broad-based core of courses in the social studies in addition to a social science major. Education courses for
these licenses are also taken during weekday evenings and summer.
The following content area majors are offered primarily or entirely through the weekday program: biology, chemistry,
physics, health, physical education, music, and mathematics. Students seeking licensure in any of these areas typically
will need to take additional content courses in the weekday schedule and off-campus. Students can obtain a 9-12 license
in physics, chemistry, or biology and have the option of adding the 5–8 general science to the 9-12 license. Students also
can obtain the 5–8 general science license without the 9–12 license. Education courses for these licenses are taken
during weekday evenings.

Undergraduate Content Area Requirements
The equivalent of a major in the licensure content area is required for K-12 and 5-12 licenses. Students who have
majored in a field in which we offer licensure must have their previous coursework evaluated by the major department
at Augsburg. Two or more content area courses tied to Minnesota licensure standards are generally required, even with
a completed academic major.
Previous coursework is evaluated by the content area department and accepted if it meets Minnesota licensure
standards and if a grade of C or better was achieved. Coursework older than five years is judged on a case-by-case basis.
Specific course requirements for each content area are on file in the Education Department.
Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is not automatically accepted into the MAE degree program.
See the MAE program director for approval to use graduate level transfer courses in the degree program.
Special Education
Augsburg University offers licensure in K–12 Special Education: Academic Behavioral Strategist (ABS). This program
qualifies students to teach in special education programs and positions working with students with mild to moderate
disabilities in the areas of emotional/behavioral disabilities, learning disabilities, autism spectrum disabilities,
developmental and cognitive disabilities and other health disabilities. This program is built on an inclusive education
model. Under this model, students learn how to work closely with both special and general educators to facilitate
inclusion of special education students into the regular education classroom. Five years after being licensed, teachers
must extend their license in one of the above categories through additional coursework.
Licensure Requirements
Licensure requirements are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Classes will include both
undergraduate and graduate students, with graduate students having additional course responsibilities. Graduate
courses are taken at the 500 level. All courses must be taken for licensure, and up to twenty‐one graduate level credits

This program is based on an innovative internship model that allows students employed in special education classrooms
to fulfill a portion of their special education field experience requirements while they work. Students not employed in
these settings are expected to complete a significant number of volunteer hours in special education settings. All must
complete field placements or student teaching in classrooms serving these populations. Hours must be completed
across elementary, middle school, and high school and include experiences with the five areas of disability that are part
of this license. Specific information on field experience requirements is available from the Education Department.
Licensure Requirements—EBD/LD–Naadamaadiwin Special Education Tribal Cohort
Augsburg does not offer the post-baccalaureate Tribal Special Education licensure program at this time. It may become
available again in the future.
If you are a student who did not finish the Tribal Special Education program when it was offered, please see your adviser
for an alternate plan. You can finish through our regular Special Education licensing program.
K-12 English as a Second Language (ESL) License
The K-12 English as a Second Language license is available as an initial license as well as an endorsement to an existing
license. This license qualifies teachers to work with K-12 students for whom English is a second language across a range
of subject areas. The K-12 ESL licensure program is comprised of both undergraduate and graduate courses; up to seven
of the graduate courses can apply to the completion of the MAE degree. Graduate-level licensure coursework (500 and
above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and have been admitted to the MAE program. A
pre-requisite to program admissions is two years of high school level or one year of college level language instruction.
The K-12 ESL program is offered in a hybrid format which means that courses are a mix of face to face and online
instruction. Classes are offered during the academic year in the evening semester framework and during summer
session to make them accessible to working adults. This license is also offered as an undergraduate major to Augsburg
Undergraduate (AU) students seeking a baccalaureate degree.
The following requirements are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate level. All courses must be taken for
licensure, and up to twenty‐one graduate level credits of licensure coursework listed below may be applied to the

Student Teaching
Students are required to complete student teaching for initial and additional licenses (unless otherwise indicated). In the
MAE program, student teaching is generally completed before finishing the degree. Students can apply for licensure at
this point and finish the degree later. Student teaching for elementary, secondary, and K-12 initial licenses lasts 12-14
weeks, depending on licensure scope. During that time, students work full-time as student teachers and are supervised
by an Augsburg faculty member. Students register for eight to twelve semester credits of student teaching and a two
semester credit edTPA and student teaching seminar. They meet at Augsburg University for student teaching seminars
several times during the term. Most student teaching placements are in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area and
Rochester. However, students do have the opportunity to student teach abroad, where students complete a 10-week
student teaching experience in the metro area and then complete another student teaching experience abroad.
Opportunities to teach abroad are available around the world, and it is a wonderful way to build a global perspective in
education. Additional information is available through the Education Department.
Curriculum—Graduate Degree Completion Options
Students take graduate coursework as part of the licensure program. This coursework forms the Master of Arts in
Education licensure core, with between four to seven Augsburg graduate-level licensure courses fulfilling master’s
requirements. Students bringing fewer than seven graduate-level licensure courses or 21 semester credits into the
degree program must complete additional Master of Arts in Leadership (ML) or education graduate courses to reach the
required 30-33 semester credits for the MAE degree.
To finish out the master’s degree, students will need to complete one of the following options.
Action Research Degree Completion Option (Minimum 30 credits)
This degree completion option requires a minimum of three classes totaling at least nine semester credits: a Master of
Arts in Leadership (ML) elective, EDC 592 Action Research 1, and EDC 593 Action Research 2. The action research courses
guide the student through completion of a long-term action research project, typically conducted in the student’s
classroom and focused on a question or concern identified by the student. The research is presented at an action
research symposium and a formal written report of the research is placed in Lindell Library. The coursework for action
research is designed to be completed in two semesters; the project itself is done once the research is presented at an
action research symposium and the paper is accepted for placement in Lindell Library. Additional terms beyond those in
which the courses are completed are available through continuing registration for up to seven semesters.
Leadership Application Project (LAP) Degree Completion Option (Minimum 30 credits)
This degree completion option requires a minimum of three classes totaling at least nine semester credits: an ML
elective, EDC 514 – Research Methods - Education focus or ML 514 - Evaluating Empirical Research and EDC 585 –
Navigating the Leadership Application Project. Students electing this degree completion option do so because they are
interested in developing an educational product that meets an identified need.
The goal for those developing an educational product is to identify an issue or problem related to their practice, and
after researching available literature, develop a solution to the problem or issue. The solution might be developed in
the form of a curriculum, a workshop, a set of informational materials, a website, an article for publication or other
appropriate educational product.
This option is completed with a final oral presentation and placement of the final paper in the Lindell Library.
Additional terms beyond those in which the courses are completed are available through continuing registration for
up to seven semesters.
38
Performance Assessment/Teacher Leadership Degree Completion Option (Minimum 33 credits)
This degree completion option focuses on the theme of the MAE degree program - teacher leadership - and requires a
minimum of the following four classes:
One ML leadership-focused course
EDC 570 - Teacher Leadership
EDC 514 - Research Methods (ML 514 can be substituted if necessary)
EDC 594 - Performance Assessment Project
Students electing this degree completion option do so because they are especially interested in considering leadership
within the context of education and themselves as potential change agents. EDC 594 must be taken as the last course in
this sequence. Students finish their degree through this option with the successful completion of these four classes.

Admission to MAE
Admission Requirements
Students admitted into the MAE licensure and degree programs must have:
Bachelor’s degree from a regionally-accredited four-year institution
Cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher (required for full admission for the graduate licensure option and
degree program). Students with a cumulative grade point average of 2.5-2.99 may be admitted conditionally into the
graduate licensure program. To be admitted to the MAE degree completion program, all students must have a 3.0 or
better Augsburg GPA.
Application Checklist
The following items must be sent to the Augsburg Office of Admissions:
Completed application form - www.augsburg.edu/mae
$35 non-refundable application fee
Personal summary outlining your tentative educational objectives and reasons for wanting to attend Augsburg
Official academic transcripts from all previously attended post-secondary institutions (including colleges,
universities, vocational/technical schools, and PSEO institutions) sent directly to the Admissions Office.
Admission as an International Student
International applicants must submit the required application materials listed above. Refer to the additional
requirements outlined in Admission of International Students.
Transfer Policy
Acceptance of previous education coursework completed at institutions other than Augsburg University is limited. Most
courses that have not been completed in the last seven years are considered to be too old to transfer and need to be
completed as part of one’s program at Augsburg. EDC 310/533 - Learning and Development, EDC 220 - Education
Technology, and ESE 3XX - K-12/5-12 Special Methods in Content Area are courses which may have a shorter acceptance
time frame. Additional information on the transfer policy is available through the Education Department.
Credit Evaluation: An official transfer credit evaluation of previous academic work will be completed as part of the
admissions process. Education coursework is evaluated by the Education Department. For secondary licenses, content
area coursework is evaluated by the content area department. This process is initiated as part of the admissions process.
Generally, the requirement for secondary licensure is that two or more classes in the content area must be taken at
Augsburg, even with an undergraduate major in the field. In all cases, previous undergraduate courses must have
received a grade of C or better to be eligible for transfer. Previous graduate coursework must have received a grade of B
or better to be considered.
Acceptance into the MAE Program
Application files are reviewed by the MAE director. Applicants are notified of the admission decision by the Office of
Admissions, usually within one to two weeks after the application file is complete. Applicants whose cumulative
undergraduate GPA is below 2.5 will not be admitted into the MAE program; however, these applicants can be
reconsidered when additional undergraduate coursework raises the cumulative undergraduate GPA to 2.5 or above. An
exception to this occurs when the applicant has completed an advanced degree with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or better.
Under these circumstances, the applicant can be considered for full admission into the MAE degree and licensure
programs.
40
Advising and Registration
Admitted students are able to participate in academic advising and the registration process. Typically, first-term
registration occurs with intake advising. After the first term, students generally are able to register online through
Records and Registration. All students are assigned an Education Department faculty advisor early in the first semester
of courses.
Academic Policies
Application to the Education Department
Once accepted to the University and the MAE program, students may take designated courses in education and content
areas. Prior to beginning the methods courses within a program, students must be admitted to the Education
Department. This admissions process is outlined in the EDC 200/522 - Orientation to Education and in admissions
handbooks, which are available through the Education Department.
Academic Achievement
All MAE students are expected to achieve and maintain 3.0 or better GPA in their Augsburg course work. Students
whose cumulative GPA falls between 2.5 and 2.99 at the end of their licensure program are able to complete the license
but are not eligible for the degree. Students with cumulative GPA’s below 2.5 may not student teach and are subject to
academic probation and possible dismissal.
In all cases, a cumulative GPA on the Augsburg graduate transcript must be at 3.0 or better to be admitted to the degree
completion component of the MAE degree. Students who are ready to begin the degree completion component must
file an Intent to Complete form (available through the MAE coordinator) at which point a transcript review is completed
to confirm the 3.0 or better GPA and to determine the completed courses that apply to the degree and the courses that
remain.
Minimum Grade Policy
Students who fail to maintain a cumulative 2.5 GPA in a given term are notified that they must raise their GPA to the
required level. Students who receive below a C in any undergraduate course or B- in any graduate course required for
licensure are expected to repeat the course as soon as possible and raise the grade to the appropriate level.
Dismissal from Licensure and Degree Program
Students may be dismissed from the licensure program prior to and during student teaching for failure to maintain
appropriate academic and teaching-based performance standards, for gross violation of University policy, and/or for
conduct in violation of professional ethics. Dismissal occurs within the context of established department procedures
described in the Education Department Handbook available through the Education Department. Students have the right
to appeal dismissal from the licensure program on the grounds of procedural error, using the University’s program
dismissal appeals process. Information about the program dismissal appeals process is available in the Augsburg Student
Guide. Students who fail to complete the license may have the option to finish the degree.
Fieldwork Requirements
Fieldwork experiences are tied to several licensure courses. In most cases, these experiences are conducted within a
service-learning framework, providing service to the school and classroom while also providing students’ opportunities
for focused reflection linked back to course objectives. In general, students should plan for a minimum of 20 hours field
experience per term. When multiple courses with field experience are taken in the same term, the requirements expand
accordingly. Students in field experiences are evaluated by their host K-12 teachers on the basis of criteria drawn from
the Minnesota Standards of Effective Practice. Evaluations are kept in the students’ Education Department files and
used in decisions regarding progress through the program and student teaching. A full description of field experience
requirements is available in the Education Department Handbook.
41
Readmission and Withdrawal
Students in good standing who fail to register for courses for two terms (not including summer) are withdrawn from the
MAE program. To be readmitted to the University and the MAE program, students file a Readmission form through the
Registrar’s Office.
Program Costs
In addition to tuition, students in this program can expect to pay a data maintenance fee upon admission to the
department, as well as liability insurance at the student rate during student teaching and the cost of a background check
for licensure and, possibly, field experience. In addition, optional international travel courses have associated costs
above and beyond the charge for tuition.

Master of Arts in Leadership
MAL Mission
The purpose of the Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) program is to develop leaders for organizations, the community,
and society. Organizations seek leaders who possess:
An ethically and morally responsible vision
An understanding of how change occurs and how it can be managed
A sensitivity to the complex problems of organizations and an ability to find solutions consistent with their mission
Cultural competence and sensitivity to the needs of a diverse population
The ability to inspire and motivate people to work toward a common goal
The Augsburg leadership development model provides a framework through which the program recruits its students and
develops their skills.
Program Overview
The study of leadership is central to Augsburg University. The University mission statement says, “Augsburg University
educates students to be informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders.” The Master
of Arts in Leadership is quintessentially Augsburg. The integrated liberal arts perspective on leadership education is what
we think of as the “Augsburg difference.”
The Master of Arts in Leadership is the core program of Augsburg’s Center for Leadership Studies (CLS). Developed and
launched in 1987, it is Augsburg’s oldest graduate degree and one of the oldest leadership graduate degrees in the
United States. The program responds to the leadership development needs of both for-profit and not-for-profit
organizations. MAL has a deep theoretical base in leadership studies, yet also offers its students practical approaches to
leadership that can be applied in the workplace and society.
Leadership Development Model
The MAL program promotes leadership as a process that:
Inspires cooperation among people who must compete for limited resources
Promotes productivity within and beyond the organization
Works toward progress for the individual and the organization
To accomplish this, individuals aspiring to positions of leadership must possess three key attributes: a sense of vision,
the ability to persuade, and the ability to direct action. Underlying these attributes are abilities and awareness, outlined
in the Leadership Development Model, which serve as specific outcomes for the MAL program. Augsburg’s model of
leadership development is designed to assess, promote, enhance, and refine these capabilities within the individual.
Learning Goals and Outcomes
The MAL program is designed to support students in developing the knowledge and skills to:
Explore the nature and practice of leadership in a wide variety of dynamic organizational and community settings
Develop a personal understanding and philosophy of leadership
Aspire to be responsible leaders who are informed citizens, critical thinkers, and thoughtful stewards
Enhance knowledge of self and the capacity to be reflective learners
Analyze and navigate increasingly complex changing environments
Formulate and articulate a shared vision in order to inspire others to achieve desired goals
43
MAL Courses
Each course encourages pursuit of the designated outcomes and uses a variety of learning techniques appropriate to
adult learners. Instructional techniques include case studies, debate, written and oral presentations, and group activity.
These techniques develop targeted leadership abilities and understanding. Students are encouraged to see abilities and
understandings as cross-disciplinary and to view content areas as integrated. The program reflects the view that the
world in which we operate is complex and that dealing with it successfully requires well-developed integrative abilities.
Plan of Study
Accommodating the Full-Time Work Schedule
Designed to meet the needs and preferences of working adults, the MAL program is based on the assumption that the
students who enroll are career-oriented, self-disciplined, and well-motivated individuals seeking a balance of classroom
experience, group interaction, and individual study. Courses are organized as seminars with the opportunity for
discussion and dialogue.
The program features classes taught by faculty from multiple disciplines and offers two formats to allow students to
choose the option that works best for them. Both formats offer a combination of classroom and online learning styles in
different proportions. The classic classroom format emphasizes face-to-face instruction augmented by online work. The
integrated hybrid format combines online and intensive learning experiences with occasional sessions in a traditional
classroom setting.
Two Convenient Formats: Classic Classroom and Integrated Hybrid
Overview of Classic Classroom Format
For nearly 30 years, our classic classroom format has featured a flexible choice model that allows students to select
courses that focus on individual goals, interests, and learning style. Students can also determine the pace at which they
move through the program. This format offers numerous electives and allows for individualized studies. Some online
work is incorporated into this format.
Schedule
During fall and spring semesters, classes usually meet every other Saturday morning or afternoon for four hours.
Additional instruction time is provided online. Seven Saturday sessions are included in one semester. Some select classes
meet on Monday evenings. Students can take a combination of Saturday and Monday courses.
A sample class schedule in the classic classroom format:
Period I
Saturday
8:00 am to 12:00 pm
Period II
Saturday
1:00 pm to 5:00 pm
Period III
Weeknights
6:00 pm to 9:45 pm
Note: Each class taken commits a student to Period I, Period II, or Period III, an average of two meetings a month. A few
courses are taught on an immersion model, which features fewer but longer sessions.
The MAL program also offers summer semester courses in seven-week, fourteen-week, or special immersion formats.
Most summer semester courses meet on weeknights from 6:00 pm to 9:45 pm rather than on Saturdays.
Curriculum
Three core courses:
ML 505 - Foundations of Leadership
ML 514 - Evaluating Empirical Research
ML 585 - Integrating the Theory and Practice of Responsible Leadership (Capstone Course)

Eight electives, selected from more than 20 offerings*
*Students may petition the program to do a thesis in place of two of the elective courses. Students who do the thesis
are required to develop and carry out an in-depth study of some aspect of leadership or of a leadership-related topic
and register for ML 592 Thesis Consultation I and ML 593 Thesis Consultation II. Students electing to write a thesis are
still required to take ML 585 to complete the program.

Overview of Integrated Hybrid Cohort Format
A combination of online, classroom, and experiential learning
The integrated hybrid model is completed in two years with a combination of intensive face-to-face sessions and online
coursework. Students complete the program with a cohort of peers representing many different perspectives. Students
learn from each other and build relationships that will provide support throughout the program and a valuable network
for the future.
Schedule
After starting with a five-day summer experience, classes meet on a semester schedule September through mid-April
(fall and spring semesters) and mid-May through mid-August (summer semester). Coursework will be online and
supported by three on-campus class sessions per term.

MBA/MAL Dual Degree
The dual degree program takes advantage of the intellectual benefits of studying business administration and leadership
in a coordinated program. It leverages Augsburg’s long tradition of graduate leadership training via the MA in Leadership
with the robust demand for business education through our MBA program. The dual degree provides students with the
leadership skills needed to run a business and, at the same time, helps them develop the comprehensive outlook they
need to thrive in today’s interconnected world.
A minimum of 18 Augsburg courses completes the MBA/MA in Leadership dual degree, including at least 7 MBA
courses and 7 MA in Leadership courses.
The following dual degree program requirements must be met.
Seven courses are required from MBA courses:
MBA 510 – Applied Managerial Economics
MBA 520 – Accounting for Business Managers
MBA 530 – Managerial Finance
MBA 540 – Business and Professional Ethics
MBA 550 – Marketing Management
MBA 570 – Quantitative Decision Making for Managers
MBA 580 – Management Consulting Project
Three core courses are required from MA in Leadership courses with 3 MAL elective courses:
ML 505 – Foundations of Leadership
ML 514 – Evaluating Empirical Research
ML 585 -- Integrating the Theory and Practice of Responsible Leadership
ML Electives (4)
Three Focus Area Courses
Students will choose one course from each of the focus areas:
Focus Area #1: Organizational Development
MBA 545 – Organizational Behavior
ML 535 – Organization Theory and Leadership
Director approved course with organizational development focus
46
Focus Area #2: Global/Multicultural Perspective
MBA 565 – Managing in a Global Environment
ML 560 – Cultural Competence and Effective Leadership
ML 563 – Leadership in a Global Society
Director approved course with global/multicultural focus
Focus Area #3: Strategic Leadership
MBA 595 – Strategic Management
ML 574 – Strategic Leadership
Director approved course with strategic leadership focus
One Additional Elective Course
Elective course may be taken in either MBA or MA in Leadership Program
Admission to the Dual Degree Program
Admission for the dual degree program is handled on a “rolling” basis and requires applicants to hold a bachelor’s
degree from a regionally accredited four-year college or university. Official transcripts from all post-secondary
institutions are required as well as a current résumé and two recommendations. An interview with the program director
is also part of the admissions process.
Although we do accept the GMAT and GRE, we also offer candidates an alternative math and writing profile assessment
entitled the Individual Learning Profile (ILP) which provides a picture of candidate’s math and writing (verbal)
competency detailing strengths and areas of improvement. The profile is not an admissions screening instrument and
will be used as a platform to develop a skills improvement plan for students should they need it.
Earning the dual degree during or after the MBA or MA in Leadership program
Students who are currently enrolled in the MBA or MA in Leadership program or alumni who wish to return to
Augsburg may add the dual degree to their existing degree by completing most of the same requirements listed on the
front of this page. Students may use previously completed application pieces and coursework to help meet these
requirements.
Returning students may complete an abbreviated application form after consultation with the MBA or ML program
director. Upon entering the MBA program, a quantitative online profile assessment must also be taken. This is used as a
platform to enhance skills, if needed.
Students with an MA in Leadership who wish to add the dual degree will take a minimum of 7 required MBA courses.
Students will complete one course in each of the 3 focus areas if they did not complete these courses during their MAL
program. Each student’s program will be slightly different based on their prior course selections.
Students with an MBA will complete 4 required and 3 elective MA in Leadership courses. Students will need to complete
one course in each of the 3 focus areas if they did not complete these courses during their MBA program. Each student’s
program will be slightly different based on their prior course selections.
Students in both programs will meet individually with the program directors to determine whether their completed final
project meets the criteria aligned with the dual degree final project. Directors may ask that the project be modified or
added to or ask the student to complete another project. These decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis.
The Graduate Certificate in Leadership Studies
The certificate program is an attractive option for people who want to develop their leadership skills without
undertaking a full degree program. A certificate is awarded after completion of three Augsburg MAL courses in
leadership. Students pursuing this option take ML 505 - Foundations of Leadership and two additional electives. All three
courses may count toward an MA in leadership. No more than one course may be double counted in another Augsburg
graduate degree program. The normal application process is used for students who wish to pursue the certificate.
47
Joint BA in Accounting and Master of Arts in Leadership
A BA in Accounting and an MA in Leadership (MAL) can be earned in this five-year program designed for students who
wish to qualify for CPA certification and obtain a master’s degree. By the end of the fifth year and successful completion
of all requirements, the student receives both a BA in Accounting and an MA in Leadership and will have fulfilled the
150-hour requirement to qualify for the CPA certification. The MAL program offers a large number of courses on a
Saturday and weeknight schedule. Refer to the MAL program schedule for the list of courses each year and to the
accounting program coordinator for a detailed academic plan. Students should meet with both the MAL director and an
accounting advisor to create an effective plan for successful completion of the five-year program.

Admission as an International Student
International applicants must submit the required application materials listed above. Refer to the additional
requirements outline in Admission of International Students in the Graduate Admissions section.
Academic Policies
Academic Evaluation
Courses not offered on the letter grading system are noted in the course descriptions in this catalog as being graded on
P/N basis. In order to receive a grade of P, a student must achieve at least a grade of B. No more than two courses with a
grade below B will count toward the degree. No more than two courses with a grade of or below B- can be repeated.
In order to graduate, a student must have a cumulative graduate GPA of 3.0 or above. All required courses and the final
projects must be successfully completed. A student registered for a final course may be permitted to participate in
commencement but will not receive a diploma until all courses are successfully completed.
Academic Probation and Dismissal Policies
Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be
placed on probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be restored in order for a
student to be removed from probation. If a student receives a grade of N or 0.0 in a course, the student must petition
successfully with the MAL director before being allowed to continue in the program. A plan for the student to follow
would be outlined at that time. If a second grade of N or 0.0 is received, the student may be dismissed from the
program. Students may also be dismissed for behavior detrimental to the program, such as a gross violation of
University policy (as published in the Student Guide). Dismissal would occur only after established procedures were
followed.
MAL Program Enrollment Policy
Students normally take either one or two courses per semester. Enrolling in two courses per semester (including
summer semester) enables a student to complete the coursework in the program within two years.
Students who are away from classes for one year or longer must complete an Application for Readmission and submit it
to the Registrar’s Office. Students who have been out of the program for more than two years may, at the discretion of
the program director, be required to take additional courses to refresh their understanding of the field.

Master of Arts in Nursing and Doctor of Nursing Practice
Welcome to graduate nursing education at Augsburg University. Our classes are made up of students representing a
dynamic mix of cultures, spiritual traditions, and life-ways. It is exciting for us to offer experienced nurses transforming
educational opportunities and engaging transcultural encounters that expand career choices and advance nursing
practice.
The increasing diversity of our population today challenges all of us to respond to individual health care needs with
creativity and competence in a variety of emerging care settings. The Master of Arts in Nursing (MAN) program is
designed to prepare nurses for those evolving contexts of care. Students can choose between two tracks of study:
Transcultural Nursing and Transformational Nursing Leadership. Each track of study emphasizes leadership skills, interprofessional collaboration and ways to serve persons in a variety of care settings.
The post-master’s Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program prepares nurses for innovative health leadership and
advanced nursing practice at local and system-wide levels. Drawing on a transcultural nursing (TCN) foundation, the
DNP-TCN curriculum embraces integrative health care and holistic nursing practice to maximize health for individuals
and communities. Emphasis is on eliminating health inequities through peaceful, just, and collaborative actions that
uphold and improve human potential. Students design their own scholarly paths defined by their unique gifts, interests,
and practice goals. Throughout the DNP-TCN program, there are a range of opportunities for collaboration across
cultures, socio-economic strata and care systems.
The post-BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) to DNP/Family Nurse Practitioner (DNP/FNP) track of study prepares
nurses for advanced nursing leadership and integrative primary care of families across cultures and care settings. Using
transcultural nursing as a foundation, the DNP/FNP curriculum embraces integrative healthcare and holistic nursing
practice. The curriculum emphasizes knowledge, skills and values that foster one’s ability to lead change, while
addressing health needs and concerns of families and communities. Nursing scholarship and advanced autonomous
practice frame the critical exploration of knowledge in transcultural nursing, integrative healthcare practices,
transformational leadership, and health assessment.
Classes in both the DNP and MAN programs are offered on the Augsburg campus and at Bethel Lutheran Church in
Rochester, MN, where our learning site is located. Class formats vary: face-to-face, video conferencing or immersions
with on-line components. Program faculty and staff are available at both sites and eager to assist students.

Master of Arts in Nursing
A master’s degree in nursing focuses on health in community life, both locally and globally, and supports students to
envision new models of care across practice settings. Students select from two tracks of study—Transformational
Nursing Leadership or Transcultural Nursing. Both tracks prepare nurse leaders to assume a wide variety of roles and
responsibilities throughout the healthcare system and in emerging care settings in communities.
Mission
Within the context of liberal arts education and guided by the values of the Lutheran Church, the Master of Arts in
Nursing program prepares nurses for transformational leadership and transcultural nursing practice across care settings
with particular emphasis on promoting health equity locally and globally.
Program Goals
Graduates of the Master of Art in Nursing Program are prepared to:
Provide a foundation for the practice of transculturally competent nursing by synthesizing, integrating, and applying
nursing research and theory in advanced nursing practice and leadership roles.
Provide a sound scholarly foundation for transformative advanced nursing practice and leadership and further
graduate study.
Create and sustain a teaching-learning environment that promotes open scholarly exchange, personal growth,
lifelong learning, leadership, and vocation of professional service in a global society.
Program Outcomes
Students are able to synthesize, integrate, and apply nursing theory and research findings to advance nursing
practice within a defined area.
Students are prepared to assume leadership roles on inter-professional health care teams to coordinate, implement,
and evaluate transcultural models of care.
Students will apply transcultural guidelines to advocate for social justice, equity, and culturally competent practice.
Scholarly exchange among students and faculty occurs through an open and supportive teaching-learning
environment.
Students will engage in experiential transcultural learning practica to enhance cultural competence among diverse
populations.
Faculty are adequately prepared to teach specific content in the master’s program.
The curriculum is systematically evaluated and adapted to evolving changes in health care.
Curriculum
The MAN curriculum is organized into 33 semester credits –15 semester credits in a Nursing Core, in which all students
enroll, and 18 semester credits in one of the two Tracks of Study. Practica are taken concurrently with most courses and
are integrated throughout the program. Each semester credit of practicum is equal to 45 clock hours of practice.
Students select a track of study when applying to the program, however, this is not essential until after one’s first
semester. Students may study full-time (6-8 semester credits per term) or part-time (4 semester credits per term). Time
to degree completion takes an average 22 months when studying full-time, and 32 months when studying part-time.
Nursing Core Courses (15 semester credits)
The core nursing courses integrate a strong foundation of social justice incorporating multiple ways of knowing with
curricular emphasis on nursing science, art, and theory to guide practice.
NUR 500 - Transcultural Health Care (3 semester credits)
52
NUR 500P - Practicum: Transcultural Health Care (1 semester credit)

Transformational Nursing Leadership Track (18 semester credits)
The Transformational Nursing Leadership track is designed to develop nurse leaders’ ability to critically analyze,
articulate, and develop effective strategies to cope with high level health care inequities. Curricular emphasis is on interprofessional collaboration across care settings. Participation in nursing leadership practica in traditional and emerging
care settings adds depth and meaning to classroom dialogue. Practica also provide opportunities for students to apply
knowledge and gain experience partnering with diverse care providers, populations, and communities to address health
inequities in creative and relevant ways. Transformational Nursing Leadership track courses include:
NUR 501 - Nursing Leadership in Complex Adaptive Systems (3 semester credits)
NUR 501P - Practicum: Nursing Leadership in Complex Adaptive Systems (1 semester credit)
NUR 521 - Transformational Nursing Leadership (3 semester credits)
NUR 521P - Practicum: Transformational Nursing Leadership (1 semester credit)
NUR 523 - Theory, Practice and Research Seminar (3 semester credits)
NUR 523P - Practicum: Theory, Practice and Research Seminar (2 semester credits)
NUR 525 - Graduate Field Project (3 semester credits)
NUR 525P - Practicum: Graduate Field Project (2 semester credits)
Students graduating from the Transformational Leadership Track of the master’s program are eligible to apply to the
American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) for certification as a Nurse Executive, Advanced and to the Transcultural
Nursing Certification Commission (TCNCC) for advanced certification in Transcultural Nursing.
Graduate Field Project in Transformational Nursing Leadership
Students will fulfill their Master of Arts in Nursing through a final practice-focused project, which serves as the capstone
of the master’s program. The last two classes in the curriculum–NUR 523 and NUR 525—emphasize the development
and articulation of a graduate field project focused on transformational leadership. Students present their final projects
in NUR 525.
Transcultural Nursing Across Care Settings Track (18 semester credits)
The Transcultural Nursing track in the Master of Arts in Nursing program is designed to prepare nurses for advanced
practice across care settings in culturally diverse communities. The curriculum is grounded in nursing science, theoryguided practice, and transcultural principles. Emphasis is on reaching out to persons and populations that are
underserved by traditional care systems and who exist outside of the social mainstream. As such, the track provides rich
alternative learning opportunities for graduate students locally and internationally. Transcultural Nursing Across Care
Settings track courses include:
NUR 532 - Transcultural Healing Practices and Self Care (3 semester credits)
NUR 532P – Practicum: Transcultural Healing Practices and Self Care (1 semester credits)
NUR 530 - The Power of Ritual and Ceremony for Healing (3 semester credits)
NUR 530P – Practicum: The Power of Ritual and Ceremony for Healing (1 semester credits)
NUR 523 - Theory, Practice and Research Seminar (3 semester credits)
NUR 523P – Practicum: Theory, Practice and Research Seminar (2 semester credits)
NUR 525 - Graduate Field Project (3 semester credits)
NUR 525P - Graduate Field Project (2 semester credits)
Students graduating from the Transcultural Nursing track of the master’s program are eligible to apply to the
Transcultural Nursing Certification Commission (TCNCC) for advanced certification in Transcultural Nursing.
53
Graduate Field Project in Transcultural Nursing
Students will fulfill their Master of Arts in Nursing through a final practice-focused project, which serves as the capstone
of the master’s program. The last two classes in the curriculum—NUR 523 and NUR 525—emphasize the development
and articulation of a graduate field project focused on transcultural nursing. Students present their final projects in NUR
525.
Practica
Practice experience is emphasized in both tracks in the Master of Arts in Nursing program. Students earn 9 semester
credits of practicum work that is equal to 405 clock hours of practice—45 clock hours per semester credit hour. Some
practica are semi-structured, experiential, and led by faculty and cultural guides familiar with the communities in which
the practica occur. Other practica options are student directed. Students are encouraged to immerse themselves in
practice settings that serve persons underserved or excluded from mainstream health care, as emphasis in the
transcultural track is on cultural diversity and health inequities across healthcare settings. Practica focusing on
experiential learning with a transformational nurse leader provides students with the opportunity to gain a greater
understanding of organizational dynamics and change through a complexity science paradigm.
Augsburg Central Health Commons & the Inner City
A unique opportunity for students to explore advanced nursing roles and new models and forms of practice is provided
by the Augsburg Central Health Commons, and the Health Commons in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood. Both Health
Commons are nursing-led drop-in centers dedicated to serving those in need and focused on healthy individuals and
communities. People from diverse backgrounds, who have health experiences grounded in wide ranging cultural
contexts frequent the Health Commons for health support and reassurance. Service and care are based on respect,
relationship, and collaboration that connects health and hope for all participants. Health Commons partners include
Central Lutheran Church in downtown Minneapolis, Fairview Health Services, People’s Center, and the East Africa Health
Project.
Study Abroad and Away
The Department of Nursing works closely with cultural guides and nurse mentors in various contexts of care in emerging
care settings at home and abroad. The Center for Global Education is a partner with the Department of Nursing in
developing and facilitating study abroad opportunities in Guatemala, Mexico, Namibia, Pine Ridge, SD, and England..
Additional collaborative partners include the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS) in Namibia. A detailed
listing of practica and immersion experiences abroad and away can be found at the nursing website

Program Structure
The program is structured in a modified cohort model. One cohort a year will be admitted to begin in the fall term.
Students can choose to take full or part-time study. Students taking full-time study take two didactic offerings, two
seminars, and a practicum each semester. Students in full-time study can complete the post-master’s DNP-TCN
curriculum in 20 months, including completion of the DNP project. Students selecting part-time study take one didactic
offering, one seminar and a practicum each semester. As a part-time student, completion of the program is expected to
take 32 months, including completion of the DNP project.
The DNP curriculum is organized into 33 semester credits comprised of didactic classes, experiential practica, and
seminars, with a DNP project completing the degree. As a practice doctorate, the emphasis is on building leadership and
practice skills in knowledge application among diverse population groups. The goal is to improve health and decrease
health inequities that lead to unnecessary morbidity and mortality in communities.
57
Students graduating from the DNP-TCN track are eligible to apply to the Transcultural Nursing Certification Commission
(TCNCC) for advanced certification in Transcultural Nursing.
Didactic
A total of six didactic courses (18 semester credits) constitute the DNP program. One course equals three semester
credits. The DNP courses (NUR 800 level), are taught in a variety of immersion models: one format is two days a month eight hours of class time, followed by a half-day morning seminar. Other courses are offered in an immersion format of
two days of class per semester with three half-day seminars. Some of the classes will incorporate Zoom technology.
Class attendance is expected and should be considered a key responsibility, not only to one’s self, but to one’s
classmates and the course instructor. Classes are held on Augsburg’s campus in Minneapolis and an additional learning
site in Rochester, MN, at Bethel Lutheran Church (810 3rd Ave SE). Video conferencing using Zoom technology is used
for some of the classes and for distant students. However, students must be prepared to drive to Rochester and/or
Minneapolis for class at least once per semester. If weather is inclement, Zoom technology is used.
Practica
Practica are organized to give flexibility and individual choice to students to support their increasing independence and
depth of practice experience at the doctoral level. Students select practicum experiences that are either structured
immersions in a variety of cultural contexts led by nursing faculty or are student initiated and individually directed
experiences mentored by nursing faculty.
In a 15-week semester, practicum hours are computed as follows:
1 semester credit hour =
2 semester credit hours =
3 semester credit hours =
45 clock hours of practicum time per semester
90 clock hours of practicum time per semester
135 clock hours of practicum time per semester
To earn the DNP, students must complete a total of 1,000 practicum hours in their Master’s and DNP programs.
Students will be allowed to transfer up to 600 practicum hours from their master’s in nursing into the Augsburg DNP. As
such, all students will register for at least nine semester credits of practica in the post-master’s DNP-TCN.
Study Abroad and Away
The Department of Nursing works closely with cultural guides and nurse mentors in various contexts of care in emerging
care settings at home and abroad. The Center for Global Education and Experience is a partner with the Department of
Nursing in developing and facilitating study abroad opportunities in Guatemala, Mexico, Namibia, Pine Ridge, SD, and
England. Additional collaborative partners include the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS) in Namibia. A
detailed listing of practica and immersion experiences abroad and away can be found at the nursing website
(www.augsburg.edu/nursing).
Seminars
Seminars focus on integration of conceptual learning with field practice, developing the student’s particular practice
interests. Students are required to participate in a doctoral seminar every semester —fall and spring—until completion
of the DNP degree. Cohorts of students who enter the DNP program together usually progress as a group in the
seminars in which they enroll each semester, depending on whether they are studying full-time or part-time. The final
seminar (NUR 841) culminates in the DNP project presentation and completion of the requirements for the DNP degree.
Final DNP Project
Final DNP projects must make a significant impact on nursing practice and health outcomes of populations and
communities, demonstrate an evidence-based contribution to existing nursing knowledge, and be suitable for
presentation or publication in a peer-reviewed venue. Through this scholarly project students demonstrate leadership in
synthesizing and applying scientific knowledge to practice challenges in local and/or system wide contexts of care.
Students should begin working on their DNP projects in the early stages of the DNP program and continue throughout
the program. The student’s scholarly project is planned in collaboration with a major faculty advisor.

through Moodle.
Community practicum experiences may be scheduled during the class meeting days as well. Additionally, some courses
may be taught in an immersion format, where students and faculty are “immersed” in a unique socio-cultural context
and course content and a set number of practicum hours are condensed into seven to fourteen days.
Class attendance is expected and should be considered a key responsibility, not only to one’s self, but to one’s
classmates and the course instructor. Classes are held on Augsburg’s campus in Minneapolis and in Rochester, MN, at
Bethel Lutheran Church (810 3rd Ave SE) the location of Augsburg’s learning site or at Hermitage Farm Center for
Healing, 6415 West River Road NW, Rochester, MN. Video conferencing using Zoom technology is used for some of the
classes. However, students must be prepared to drive to Rochester and/or Minneapolis for classes. If weather is
inclement, Zoom technology is used.
Practica (for DNP courses) / Clinicals (for FNP courses)
Practica are organized to give flexibility and individual choice to students to support their increasing independence and
depth of practice experience at the doctoral level. Students select practicum experiences that are either structured
immersions in a variety of cultural contexts led by nursing faculty or that are student initiated and individually directed
experiences mentored by nursing faculty. FNP clinical sites will be arranged by clinical faculty.
In a 15-week semester, practicum hours are computed as follows:
1 semester credit hour = 45 clock hours of practicum time per semester
2 semester credit hours = 90 clock hours of practicum time per semester
3 semester credit hours = 135 clock hours of practicum time per semester
To earn the DNP/FNP, students must complete a total of 1,035 practicum hours. Students will be allowed to transfer up
to 400 practicum hours from their master’s in nursing. To complete the DNP/FNP, students must complete 630 clinical
hours (530 hours of primary care of the adult and 100 hours of primary care of children and women’s health and 35
clinical for integrative health). As such, all students will register for at least 23 semester credits of practica.
Seminars
Seminars focus on integration of conceptual learning with field practice developing the student’s particular practice
interest. Students are required to participate in a total of four one-semester-credit doctoral seminars during the
DNP/FNP program. The final seminar culminates in the project presentation and completion of the requirements for the
DNP degree.
Study Abroad and Away
The Department of Nursing works closely with cultural guides and nurse mentors in various contexts of care in emerging
care settings at home and abroad. The Center for Global Education and Experience is a partner with the Department of
Nursing in developing and facilitating study abroad opportunities in Guatemala, Mexico, Namibia, Pine Ridge, SD, and
England. Additional collaborative partners include the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS) in Namibia. A
62
detailed listing of practica and immersion experiences abroad and away can be found at the nursing website
(www.augsburg.edu/nursing).
Final DNP/FNP Project
Final DNP/FNP projects must make a significant impact on nursing practice and health outcomes of populations and
communities, demonstrate an evidence-based contribution to existing nursing knowledge, and be suitable for
presentation or publication in a peer-reviewed venue. Through this scholarly project students demonstrate leadership in
synthesizing and applying scientific knowledge to practice challenges in local and/or system wide contexts of care.
Students should begin working on their DNP/FNP projects in the early stages of the program and continue throughout.
The student’s scholarly project is planned in collaboration with a major faculty advisor.

The number of applicants admitted to the DNP/FNP program will be limited and based on availability of faculty members
that share a student’s practice interests and goals. Meeting the minimum admission criteria does not ensure that an
applicant will be admitted to the program.
The above Admission Criteria are current as of April 2017 and are subject to change.
Applicants who have graduated from a foreign nursing program, should submit their coursework for validation to the
World Education Service (WES) or the National Association of Credential Evaluators (NACES) and have the reports sent
63
directly to Augsburg University. Additionally, internationally-educated applicants may request the Commission on
Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS) (www.cgfns.org) to forward their educational credentials report to the
Minnesota State Board of Nursing. Once their credentials are verified, applicants must apply for licensure and
demonstrate successful passing of the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX).
Nurses who have previously submitted CGFNS credential verification in a state other than Minnesota, who have passed
the NCLEX, will be considered for admission and must meet the same residency requirements expected of all students.
Applicants whose first language is not English must submit score evidence from TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign
Language) score report of 80 on the Internet Based TOEFL (iBT) with a subscore of 20 on the written and 20 on the
speaking sections. See Graduate Admissions for more information. (www.augsburg.edu/grad/international)
Academic Policies
Evaluation of academic performance in the DNP program will be based on letter grades. See detailed information in the
Academic Programs and Policies
Attendance Policy
Class attendance is expected and should be considered a key responsibility, not only to one’s self, but to one’s
classmates and the course instructor. Instructors may lower grades if attendance and participation is lacking. Individual
syllabi will contain individual instructors’ requirements. Because classes are held in Rochester and Minneapolis, students
must prepare to drive to class at least once per semester.
Academic Probation and Dismissal Policies
Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average in the DNP program. If a student falls below a 3.0 average,
the student will be placed on probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be restored in
order for a student to be removed from probation. The grading scale in the DNP-FNP courses require students to
achieve a grade of a B+. If a student receives a grade of a B or less, the student must petition to the faculty of the DNP
program before being allowed to continue in the program. If a second grade of a B or less is received, the student may
be dismissed from the program.
Students may also be dismissed for behavior detrimental to the program, such as a gross violation of University policy as
published in the Student Guide. Dismissal would occur only after established procedures were followed.
Accreditation
The Doctor of Nursing Practice program is accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE), which
has accredited the Master of Arts in Nursing and the Bachelor of Science in Nursing programs at Augsburg. Augsburg is
accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.

Master of Business Administration
Embarking on a graduate degree program is an exciting and challenging decision. The Augsburg MBA is a rigorous and
intensive educational experience. The Augsburg MBA is practical and “hands-on,” focusing on applicable skills and
knowledge designed to increase your ability to think, analyze and act. Augsburg MBA students all work on a consulting
project with a local business where they apply what they’ve learned in the classroom to a real-world business
problem. The Augsburg MBA also provides students a unique opportunity to investigate business cultures and practices
through a faculty-led international experience. Our curriculum integrates the global experience of our faculty and
reflects Augsburg’s mission of developing leaders grounded in values, purpose, and vocation.
The Augsburg MBA is a proven accelerated cohort-based program focused on three learning modules: Personal and
Professional Development, Quantitative Decision Making, and Value Creation, all built on a foundation of ethical
decision-making. We encourage our students to challenge themselves, their classmates and professors to bring a new
and expanded focus of the world through guided reflection and examination.
Augsburg MBA students are chosen because they exhibit purpose and direction in their careers and lives, and positive
engagement with their community and associates. Our MBA graduates make a difference. We invite you to become
part of a growing community of Augsburg MBA alumni.
Bruce E. Batten, Ph.D.
Director, Master of Business Administration Program
MBA Mission - “Prepare Students for Meaningful Work”
Our mission is to prepare students for meaningful work by developing their decision-making skills, critical thinking and
by transforming them into effective managers and leaders in service to others. The program aspires to provide an
outstanding student-centered education that produces graduates who are critically astute, technically proficient, and
who understand the moral and ethical consequences of their decisions on their organization and on the world.
Accreditation
The Augsburg MBA is a candidate for accreditation with the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs
(ACBSP).
Augsburg is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. For a complete list of Augsburg’s accreditations, approvals,
and memberships, see the listing in the Accreditation, Approvals, and Memberships section.
MBA Program Overview
Today’s business leader must be able to quickly analyze situations and information and critically analyze alternatives and
courses of action. The purpose of the Augsburg MBA is to prepare students to accept greater responsibility in
organizations facing this dynamic and fast-evolving business culture. The curriculum of the MBA gives students the
ability to think critically and ethically as they face the increased challenges of a global business environment. Quality,
individual initiative, ethics, and teamwork are hallmarks of the Augsburg MBA. We have a commitment to continually
improve students’ experiences and learning in the program. Our faculty is uniquely qualified to bridge theory and realworld application, giving MBA students opportunities to acquire skills and knowledge in a variety of disciplines.
Plan of Study
The Augsburg MBA is an accelerated, evening program that allows working professionals to complete an MBA degree in
approximately 24 months. This is accomplished by using a cohort model in which students follow a predetermined
schedule with classes meeting one night a week.
Students in a cohort program model stay together as a group through the sequence of classes for the duration of the
program. This provides a continuous, collaborative learning process. The cohort environment fosters a cohesive learning
community where students learn from each another, mentor each other, and peer coach. You’ll share diverse
66
professional expertise and experience as you work in teams on projects, case studies, presentations, and simulations,
both inside and outside of class. Working both individually and in small groups enables you to enhance your strengths,
build your skills, expand your business acumen, and improve your decision-making. Together as a community you’ll build
personal, social, and academic abilities.
Adult learners bring a wealth of work and personal life experiences with them into the classroom, multiplying the
opportunities for learning. The personal connections and relationships you build with fellow students and faculty will
extend into an important and valuable network as you take your career to new levels.
Credit for Prior Learning
Up to nine credits may be waived through prior business coursework (with director/faculty approval) or certain
professional credentials (with appropriate documentation). Consult the MBA program office for details. Students who
have passed the Certified Public Accountants (CPA) or Certified Management Accountants (CMA) exam may be waived
from MBA 520, Accounting for Managers.
Students with prior academic coursework that meets the following criteria may be waived from eligible core courses.
Completion of at least two undergraduate courses covering corresponding Augsburg MBA core course material (See
department for Equivalency details).
The most recent of the undergraduate courses was taken within the past five years and a second course within
seven years.
A grade of B (or 3.0 on 4 point scale) or higher was earned in any course considered for a course waiver.
Course(s) must be taken at an approved, regionally-accredited institution.
Acceptance of core course waivers implies the student accepts the responsibility for having the essential knowledge
and understanding of the core course material, and is properly prepared for any future core or elective course for
which the waived course was a prerequisite. Academic credit is not awarded for any waived course, nor will the
course appear on academic transcripts.
Academic Calendar
The Augsburg MBA is designed as a year-round program. Courses are offered during fall, spring, and summer semesters.
Courses are offered consecutively during each term so students are able to concentrate on one subject at a time. The
program is designed to have students take at least two courses per term.
Official academic calendars and the MBA registration policies can be found at www.augsburg.edu/registrar. The unique
cohort model of the Augsburg MBA requires individual schedules for each cohort. These schedules are provided by the
MBA department.
The Faculty-Led International Experience
Each year, all current MBA students are offered the opportunity to participate in a faculty-led international experience.
This trip is taken in conjunction with either of these courses: MBA 565 - Managing in a Global Environment or MBA 595 Strategic Management. Students will travel as a group to an international location, visit businesses, participate in faculty
lectures, and learn about the culture and traditions of the countries visited. Each MBA student should have two
opportunities during their matriculation in the program to participate. Costs can vary; but as a minimum, trips normally
include tuition (for the course selected), lodging, and travel in-country, as well as some meals.
Program Requirements
The Augsburg MBA requires 42 semester credits for degree completion. Augsburg MBA courses are three semester
credits each. Each three semester credit course consists of 28-32 hours of in-class instruction and 5 ½ - 9 ½ hours of
online instruction per week through a web-based electronic course management system.
A total of 14 courses are required for the Augsburg MBA. There are 12 required courses and 2 electives.

Programs and policies.) Students must complete no fewer than 21 semester credits at Augsburg in order to receive their
MBA degree from Augsburg University. All students must complete the Management Consulting project (MBA 580) to
graduate. Eligible coursework must be approved by the MBA program director before transfer credit will be granted.
Academic Policies
MBA Program Enrollment Policy
Students are strongly encouraged to remain in their cohort and complete their MBA program as scheduled. Adjustments
or modifications to the MBA schedule require the approval of the MBA program director.
All students are required to complete all components of the program within five years of matriculation. Extensions
beyond five years will be considered on the basis of petition to the MBA director. Students who leave the program for
more than one semester must request a leave of absence in writing from the MBA program. A leave of absence may be
granted for one calendar year. Students who return to the program after a leave of one year or more must fill out an
69
Application for Readmission form and submit it to the MBA office. Time spent on an official MBA-approved leave of
absence will not count toward the five-year deadline for degree completion.
Academic Evaluation
The grading scale used for the evaluation of academic performance in the MBA program is an A-F scale, with the
exception of MBA580, which is pass/no pass only. For complete information on grading and evaluation, see Academic
Programs and Policies.
Withdrawal from Class
For information regarding the last date on which students may withdraw from a class and receive a “W” on their
records, refer to the academic calendar at www.augsburg.edu/registrar.
Attendance Policies
Student attendance at scheduled class meetings is a priority and required. However, MBA faculty understand that MBA
students are working adults with significant responsibilities who, on occasion, face unforeseen situations that may
interfere with attendance. Students should notify the faculty member teaching the course as soon as possible. When the
student knows in advance of a class date where a potential conflict exists, they must discuss the proposed missed class
with the faculty member prior to the date of the class. Students are responsible for the work covered during that class
session and for making appropriate arrangements for obtaining handouts, lecture content, or other materials. Faculty
members may assign appropriate independent work to insure that the student understands the material covered during
the class session.
If appropriate and acceptable coordination is carried out by the student, there need not be any grade reduction for a
single missed class session. This may be dependent on assignments due on the date of the missed class; e.g., final
project presentations or team presentations. Point/grade reductions for unexcused absences are the prerogative of the
faculty. Two missed class sessions, excused or unexcused, may be grounds for directing the student to withdraw from
the course. More than two absences, excused or unexcused, require that a student withdraw from the class.
Degree Requirements
To be conferred the MBA degree, students must achieve the following:
Passing score on all modules of MBA math (http://mbamath.com/). MBA math contains modules in accounting,
economics, finance, statistics, and spreadsheets
Successful completion of MBA courses with a grade of B or above
No more than two courses with a grade of B- or below, and with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher at the completion
of the program

Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing
MFA Mission
The Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing is a two-year, low-residency program designed for those who wish to deepen
and broaden their artistic sensibilities, discover a close-knit community of fellow writers, enjoy individual attention from
an accomplished and forward-thinking faculty, and prepare themselves for the future of creative writing.
Program Overview
Summer Residencies
The Augsburg Low-Residency MFA includes 10-day summer residencies on the Augsburg campus in Minneapolis,
offering daily workshops, readings, and panels that focus on literary craft as well as career skills in teaching, editing,
publishing, book arts, marketing, translation, and adaptation. The full degree program includes three summer
residencies, featuring visits by distinguished writers in each genre as well as editors, agents, publishers, and literary
entrepreneurs.
Fall and Spring Semesters
The first two residencies are followed each year by fall and spring off-campus semesters. During those terms, students
work with faculty mentors in virtual classrooms that make use of online and other technologies. Each semester, MFA
candidates enroll in one Mentorship section and one section of Critical and Creative Reading. Although MFA learning
objectives call for demonstrated expertise in at least one genre by graduation, twenty-first century writers compose
their work in an environment in which genre has permeable boundaries and lines between genres are often erased.
With this in mind, cross-genre work will be encouraged, with students working in a genre other than the declared
specialty, usually during the second off-campus semester.
Owing to a revision in the curriculum, those students beginning the program in Summer of 2016 will take a combined
mentorship and reading course during each fall and spring semester. During their final year of long-distance study, they
will also take two two-unit courses: in one they will write a paper on some element of the craft of writing; in the other
they will work on and complete their thesis.
Semester Mentorships
The Mentorship is a one-on-one experience with a faculty mentor who guides the student’s production of work and
study of craft. This one-on-one creative studio experience is focused on the MFA candidate’s own writing and growth as
a writer.
Critical and Creative Reading in an Online Classroom
This is a reading-as-writers course that provides an opportunity to work with your professor and a community of peers,
considering craft, criticism and aesthetics. Meetings are online in the electronic classroom. The format may include
online discussion boards, Skype or video chats, and teleconferences with mentors and fellow learners. The online
classroom offers an opportunity to continue conversations begun during the residency with members of the MFA
community.
Genres and Concentrations
Genres include Fiction, Creative Nonfiction, Poetry, Screenwriting and Playwriting.
The program also includes concentrations in teaching, translation, and publishing. Concentrations require additional
coursework. With the program director’s consent, students may enroll in concentration courses simultaneously with
MFA studies. Candidates enrolled in the publishing concentration will be the staff of the publishing house Howling Bird
Press and will select and publish one book each year. The book prize is open to submissions nationally.
72
Plan of Study
Students may select a completion plan for the MFA:
The Traditional plan. Students choose one genre as the designated field of study but areis encouraged to work
outside the designated field of study for one term.
Extended Study. Designed for students who wish to prolong their studies in a single genre, this option has students
completing at least five mentored and reading terms instead of the standard four. At least four of these terms
should be used to study the student’s declared genre.
Mixed Genre. Designed for students who want to more deeply immerse themselves in a secondary genre, this
option has students completing at least five mentored and reading terms, including three in the student’s primary
declared genre and two in a different genre.
Post-MFA. Designed for students who already have an MFA, this option allows students to drop into the program for
a single residency or semester of study — or longer. Students seeking this option should contact the program
director, as his approval is required.
Career Concentration. Designed for students who wish to better prepare themselves for the job market, this option
allows students to enroll in electives in teaching, translation and/or publishing. This work is completed alongside a
traditional or extended/mixed genre course of study, or pursued immediately after completing the MFA.
Accommodating Writers Who Work Full-Time and Those Who Live Outside of Minnesota
Augsburg’s Traditional MFA in Creative Writing can be completed in eleven courses (three summer residencies and four
off-campus electronic semesters of two courses each). Those students beginning summer of 2016 can complete the
program in nine courses (three summer residencies, four long-distance mentorship and reading courses, a craft paper
course, and a thesis course.) A typical plan of study in the Traditional Low-Residency MFA, will work like this:
First Year
Summer Residency I, including genre workshops, writing seminars, readings and lectures, ten days on the Minneapolis
campus, with assignments before and after residency.
Fall Semester I, a combined Mentorship studio and Creative and Critical Reading course.
Spring Semester I, a combined Mentorship studio and Creative and Critical Reading course (generally the “out-ofgenre” term).
Second Year
Summer Residency II, including genre workshops, writing seminars, readings and lectures, ten days on the
Minneapolis campus, with assignments before and after residency.
Fall Semester II, a combined Mentorship studio and Creative and Critical Reading course and a craft paper course.
Students complete a craft paper at this point.
Spring Semester II, a combined Mentorship studio and Creative and Critical Reading course and a thesis units course.
This is the semester during which students complete a thesis and prepare a lecture/presentation for their final
residency.
Third Year – Residency Only
Summer Residency III, including genre workshop, writing seminars, readings and lectures. Final term for graduating
MFA candidates. Graduates give a public lecture/presentation and a reading from thesis work. Ten days on the
Minneapolis campus, with assignments before and after residency.

Academic Policies
Credit
To earn the MFA, candidates must complete 44 semester credits, write a critical/creative paper, deliver a public
lecture/presentation, give a public reading/staging, and complete a book length manuscript of publishable quality
(fiction, nonfiction and poetry), a screenplay/calling card script (screenwriting), or a full-length play of producible quality
(playwriting).
The residencies and the combined mentorship and critical and creative reading courses carry six semester credits. Craft
paper and thesis courses carry two semester credits. To earn the MFA, candidates must complete 46 semester credits,
write a critical/creative paper, deliver a public lecture/presentation, give a public reading/staging, and complete a book
length manuscript of publishable quality (fiction, nonfiction and poetry), a screenplay/calling card script (screenwriting),

To include a concentration in Teaching or in Translation/Adaptation in the MFA, students must complete 12 courses or
48 credits. For the MFA with a concentration in Publishing, students must complete 13 courses or 52 credits.
Transfer
Augsburg’s low-residency MFA includes in-person and online elements that help us maintain a strong community and
create a culture in which our writers thrive.
This studio degree is the terminal degree in writing and because of the unique features of a terminal, low-residency,
studio degree, the final decision on transfer credit will depend on review by the Augsburg University MFA Program. A
maximum of eight semester credits from traditional residency MFA programs and from MA programs in creative writing
or English literature may be accepted. The MFA Program Director will review and may offer up to four additional credits
in transfer for equivalent residency or workshop experience completed in another program. The maximum transfer
credits allowed is 12 credits.
Academic Evaluation
Grading
The MFA Program uses fine arts studio grading practices, formative in nature and designed to be an element of the
teaching curriculum. A narrative transcript composed of comments on those elements that the particular student writer
is working on during a particular term will be used to assess progress in the mentorship courses. These are formative
and qualitative assessment elements and professors’ responses will vary as professor/artists and student/artists
approach student work with the student’s individual artistic aims in mind. In addition to the fine arts formative and
75
qualitative assessment, students will be assessed in light of their success in meeting learning objectives of the course
while completing work assigned.
MFA in Creative Writing Courses are graded on a Pass/No Credit basis, using the Augsburg graduate grading model scale
as described below:
P – Represents work at B or higher and meets acceptable standards.
N – No credit, not counted in grade point average.
Alignment of Course Outcomes
MFA courses are aligned with the Program Hallmarks of the Association of Writers and Writing Programs (AWP), the
national professional organization for writing programs and the writers who teach in those programs.
Participation
Students are expected to fully participate in Summer Residencies, attending workshop sessions and scheduled meetings
with mentors as well as a majority of readings, lectures and other scheduled sessions. Participation in off-campus
coursework is expected to occur during the designated time for each Mentorship studio critique session and “time
away” for creative work. Students are also expected to take part in synchronous and asynchronous sessions with
mentors and demonstrate “presence” in the Creative and Critical Reading courses through regularly scheduled
exchanges with faculty and peers.
Academic Honesty
Augsburg’s high expectations for academic honesty will be applied to this class. Please refer to the Student Guide at
inside.augsburg.edu/studentaffairs/studentguide/academic-honest-policies if you have any questions.
Affiliation
The Augsburg University MFA Program is a member of the Association of Writers and Writing Programs (AWP) and
curriculum is based on the AWP Hallmarks of an Effective Low Residency MFA Program in Creative Writing.

Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies
Mission
The mission of the Augsburg University Department of Physician Assistant Studies is based on a foundation of respect
and sensitivity to persons of all cultures and backgrounds and oriented toward providing care to underserved
populations. Students are well educated in current medical theory and practice, and graduates are encouraged to work
in primary care settings. The program promotes dedication to excellence in performance, with the highest standards of
ethics and integrity, and commitment to lifelong personal and professional development.
Accreditation
The Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA) has granted Continued
Accreditation to the Physician Assistant Program sponsored by Augsburg University. Continued accreditation is an
accreditation status granted when a currently accredited program is in compliance with the ARC-PA Standards.
Continued Accreditation remains in effect until the program closes or withdraws from the accreditation process or until
accreditation is withdrawn for failure to comply with the Standards. The approximate date for the next comprehensive
review of the program by ARC-PA will be Spring 2019.
About PA
As defined by the American Academy of Physician Assistants:
“PAs are health professionals licensed or, in the case of those employed by the federal government, credentialed to
practice medicine in association with designated collaborating physicians. PAs are qualified by graduation from an
accredited PA educational program and/or certification by the National Commission on Certification of Physician
Assistants ... Within the physician-PA relationship, PAs provide patient-centered medical care services as a member of a
healthcare team. PAs practice with defined levels of autonomy and exercise independent medical decision making within
their scope of practice.”
In the state of Minnesota, a PA is licensed with the Board of Medical Practice. In Minnesota, and most other states,
the PA must be NCCPA (National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants) certified and hold a
delegation agreement with a licensed physician.
Curriculum
The Physician Assistant program at Augsburg is 28 months long with studies beginning each year in the summer
semester (late May or early June). The program accepts up to 30 students for each new class. Graduates will receive a
Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies and a PA certificate.
Approximately 16 months of the program is didactic, or classroom work, including courses in human gross anatomy,
pathophysiology, clinical medicine, pharmacotherapy, history and physical exam skills, research, and professional issues.
The academic phase of the program also includes development of practical skills through the use of case studies,
simulated patients, and technical skills workshops (i.e. suturing, casting/splinting).
The clinical phase is completed in approximately 12 months. The clinical phase of the program is designed to effectively
train students for practice by providing them with rotation experiences in different specialties and a variety of practice
settings. To that end, each student will be required to complete rotations outside the metropolitan area. Each student is
required to successfully complete clinical rotations in family medicine, pediatrics, women’s health, behavioral health,
emergency medicine, internal medicine, surgery, and two elective rotations by choosing from various specialties. The
clinical phase will culminate with a preceptorship that is designed to solidify the student’s skills and potentially place
them in a setting that might be interested in recruiting a graduate PA. Clinical instructors include Physicians, Physician
Assistants and other health care providers.
81
A student will be required to complete the clinical phase at site(s) determined by the Program to provide the student
with the best educational experience. Clinical rotation sites will be located throughout the state of MN and other cities
in the 5 state area.
The Augsburg PA program includes time away from the program at varying times which may or may not differ from the
traditional breaks at Augsburg University; these breaks contribute to the overall 28 month length of the program.

least 2000 hours of paid, direct, hands-on clinical patient care to be competitive in this category.
Additional science courses such as anatomy, genetics, immunology, other biology courses, and organic chemistry
Demonstration of motivation for the PA profession by formally shadowing a PA or other health care provider.
Demonstration of a commitment to, and involvement with, underserved communities
Note: The Graduate Record Exam (GRE) is not required.
PA Studies Application Process
The Augsburg Physician Assistant Studies program has a two-step application process—applying through CASPA and to
Augsburg’s PA Studies Program.
The Augsburg PA Program participates in the Centralized Application Service for Physician Assistants (CASPA) which is
sponsored by the Physician Assistant Education Association (PAEA). All applications to the PA Program for the entering
class must be processed through CASPA, following all guidelines and regulations set forth by CASPA. Application forms
with detailed instructions can be obtained online at portal.caspaonline.org.
83
You will be considered an eligible applicant if you have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 at the time of application (as
calculated by CASPA), if you have a minimum science GPA of 3.0 at the time of application (as calculated by CASPA), if
you have completed or will complete your undergraduate degree prior to the start date of the program, and if you have
completed or will complete your prerequisite courses within the timeline specified for your degree status.
Additional Application Details:
The Augsburg PA Program requires three letters of recommendation submitted through the CASPA process. We strongly
recommend that one be from an employer/colleague (a professional reference), one letter be from a professor or
adviser (an academic reference), and the third from a person of your choice. Be sure that your letter writers are able to
tell the committee about you as well as his/her experiences with you and observations about you.
Your Supplemental Application must be submitted electronically on or before August 1 in order to be considered.
We use the CASPA “Complete Date” to determine if you have met the application deadline of August 1. The “Complete
Date” on your application must be August 1 or prior in order to be considered meeting the deadline. CASPA assigns a
“Complete Date’ when they have received your electronic application, transcripts from all schools attended, 2 of your 3
letters of reference, and payment. Until those criteria are met, your application will not be given a “Complete Date.”
Your GPA (cumulative and science) is set at the time of your CASPA submission. The Augsburg PA Program will not
recalculate GPAs as additional coursework is completed post CASPA submission. We will request grade reports for your
prerequisite courses and add them to your file as they are completed, but your official GPA, as calculated by CASPA, will
be the GPA of record for your application.
Selection Process
Competitive files will be reviewed by the admissions committee.
The selection committee looks for a balanced application by reviewing key criteria such as cumulative GPA, science GPA,
and direct patient care experience followed by overall academic record, service to underserved (meaning
disadvantaged, minority, or underrepresented populations), essay responses, knowledge of the profession, fit with the
program goals and mission, and recommendation letters.
As the committee completes file review, candidates are selected for an interview. The interviews are generally
conducted during the months of October, November, and January. Candidates come to campus to meet program
faculty, staff and current students, and to view the facilities.
As interviews are completed, seats in the incoming class are offered. The cohort class will be filled between the months
of October and May. A list of alternates will be selected in January to fill seats that accepted candidates may not claim.
All applicants are notified of their final status by mid-February.
Accepted candidates must complete and pass a background check prior to matriculation and annually through the
program. Failure of the background check may result in dismissal from the program.

Documentation of a Disability
The Augsburg University Department of Physician Assistant Studies is pledged to the admission and matriculation of
qualified students and wishes to acknowledge awareness of laws which prohibit discrimination against anyone on the
basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age or disability.
Regarding disabled individuals, the Physician Assistant Studies department will not discriminate against such individuals
who are otherwise qualified but will expect all applicants and students to meet certain minimal technical standards.
All Augsburg students have been accepted by the college based on their ability to succeed academically and are required
to meet the same academic and technical standards. Disability Resources (CLASS Office) provides academic support and
accommodations to students with disabilities or temporary conditions. Accessing accommodations is an ongoing and
interactive process where information can be gathered from the student and from other relevant sources. We ask that
students interview with a Disability Specialist to discuss their requests. We prefer students to present any
documentation that describes their disability and the impact on educational experiences and in the educational
environment early in the process. Each student’s requests will be evaluated on an individual basis.
The purpose of documentation is to assist in providing information and understanding about how the courses or
facilities might present barriers and to what degree the disability affects the student, and to plan for accommodations to
facilitate access.
Some Examples of Disabilities
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD/ADD)
Learning Disabilities
Psychiatric Disabilities
Autism Spectrum Disorders
Head Injury/Traumatic Brain Injury
Physical Disabilities and Systemic Illnesses
86
Deafness/Hearing Impairment
Blindness/Low Vision
Disabilities that are sporadic or degenerative in nature
Temporary conditions
The first step in accessing services is to call CLASS to schedule an appointment with a Disability Specialist, (612) 3301053.
Experiential Learning Policy
The Augsburg Physician Assistant Program does not award academic credit to an individual for experiential learning.
Applicants desiring admission to Augsburg’s PA Program must satisfactorily complete all prerequisite courses.
Experiential learning will be considered separately from prerequisite courses. Experiential learning prior to and during
admittance to the Augsburg PA Program will not substitute for any part of the clinical phase.
Employment while in the Program
Program faculty discourage outside employment while in the Physician Assistant Program. Faculty recognize that
employment may be an issue that some students will face. Given this recognition, realize that program obligations will
not be altered due to a student’s work obligations. It is further expected that work obligations will not interfere with the
physician assistant students’ learning progress or responsibilities while in the program.
Withdrawal and Readmission Policies
Voluntary withdrawal from the Physician Assistant Program may be initiated by a student after submission of a letter to
the Program Director requesting withdrawal. In the letter, the student should outline the circumstances and reasons for
withdrawal. Students will be requested to conduct an exit interview with the Program Director prior to leaving the
program. For information on withdrawal, see the Academic Policies section.
Readmission
Students may request readmission after voluntary withdrawal by submitting a letter to the Program Director stating the
reasons the student wishes readmission and the anticipated date for readmission. The submission of a letter and
previous enrollment does not constitute automatic acceptance and/or reentry into the program. Reapplication to the PA
Program after dismissal from the program will be considered only under extremely unusual circumstances.
For the full readmission policy and reapplication process, please contact the program.
Advanced Placement
The Department of PA Studies does not offer advanced placement to admitted students. All students admitted to the PA
Program must complete the entire curriculum.

MSW Mission
Our mission is to develop social work professionals for advanced practice that promotes social justice and
empowerment towards the well-being of people in a diverse and global society.
Program Overview
The MSW program prepares social work students for agency-based practice in public and nonprofit settings. By working
in the agency setting, social workers collaborate with others to provide holistic, affordable, and accessible services to
individuals, families, groups, and communities. Our challenging MSW curriculum integrates social work theory with
micro and macro practice methods. Students develop skills, knowledge, and values necessary for ethical social work
practice. As you progress through our MSW program, you will:
Learn how individuals live in and are affected by their social environment
Understand how social policies and programs affect individuals, families, communities, and society
Apply theories and methods of practice through the field practicum experience
Use a range of client-centered approaches to practice with client groups of all types and sizes
Engage in practice informed by sound, scholarly research
Evaluate the effectiveness of your social work practice or social work programs
Advocate for the eradication of oppression and discrimination
Be a responsible and contributing citizen in the local and global community
Accreditation
Augsburg’s MSW program is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). Your MSW degree must be
accredited by CSWE if you seek licensure with the social work board of your state. For more information on CSWE
accreditation go to www.cswe.org.
Augsburg University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. For a complete list of Augsburg’s accreditations,
approvals, and memberships, see the Accreditation, Approvals, and Memberships section of this catalog.

Plan of Study
Students entering Augsburg’s MSW program with a bachelor’s degree from a discipline other than social work are
classified as foundation students. Full-time foundation students are enrolled in a two year program. Part-time
foundation students are enrolled in a four year program.
Students entering Augsburg’s MSW program with a bachelor’s degree in social work from a CSWE (Council on Social
Work Education) accredited institution are classified as advanced standing students. Full-time advanced standing
students are enrolled in a 13 month program. Part-time advanced standing students are enrolled in a 25 month
program.
All students must complete the MSW degree in no more than 4 years following matriculation.
Academic Calendar
The MSW program meets on a semester calendar, with classes offered September through August. Classes typically
meet every other weekend with an occasional back-to-back weekend. Field practicum hours are generally completed
during weekday hours. If a student lives outside the Twin Cities metro area, the field practicum hours can be completed
at a placement near the student’s place of residence. Hours per week vary depending on the agency placement and the
student’s availability. For academic calendars and schedules, go to www.augsburg.edu/registrar.
Class Periods
Classes meet in 2-4 hour blocks on Friday evenings, 6 to 10:00 pm; Saturday mornings, 8:00 am to 12 pm; and Saturday
afternoons, 1:00 to 5:00 pm. Each class meets on campus for 8 sessions in a given semester and for 4 sessions on
campus in a summer term (May-June), with the expectation that students engage in hybrid learning activities between
on-campus class weekends.
Time Commitment
Although classes meet on weekends, students spend time on their studies during non-class weekends and weekdays in
accordance with our hybrid learning format. Hybrid learning is a combination of face-to-face class sessions and
online/experiential learning. On a class weekend, the typical student will spend 12 hours in class within a 23-hour
period. For every hour spent in class, a student may expect to spend 3 to 4 hours outside of class working on online
activities, assignments, readings, or group projects. A student may also spend 15 to 20 hours per week in the field
practicum during the fall and spring semesters (a span of 8 to 9 months for each practicum). In the final year of study,
students complete a summative evaluation or a portfolio, which requires significant independent research, analysis, and
writing.
Some MSW students work full-time while enrolled in the program. However, full-time employment is not
recommended. Most students arrange to reduce their work hours or request time away during their graduate studies.
Each student’s situation is unique and must be decided individually. All students must develop strategies for balancing
family, work, and academic responsibilities.
Credit and Contact Hours
MSW courses range from 2 to 4 semester credits. Depending on the number of credits, students will spend 16 to 32
hours in the classroom per course. Students will also be expected to engage in activities and independent study outside
of class.
Cohort Structure
MSW students are admitted to a particular cohort. Cohorts are distinguished by level of admission (foundation or
advanced standing), rate of attendance (full-time or part-time), and chosen concentration (Multicultural Clinical Practice
[MCCP] or Multicultural Macro Practice [MCMP]). Any changes to a student’s cohort selection must be approved by the
MSW director.
90
Field Practicum
Foundation students complete 920 hours in two field practica; advanced standing students complete 500 hours in one
field practicum. Successful completion of the first field practicum, required for foundation students, is a minimum of 420
hours. Successful completion of the second field practicum, required for both foundation and advanced standing
students, is a minimum of 500 hours. Each practicum experience is spread over two semesters (fall and spring). These
hours are completed concurrent with enrollment in the fieldwork seminars as well as other MSW courses.
MSW Curriculum Components
Foundation Curriculum
In the foundation courses and field practicum, students are introduced to social work as a profession. Students learn
both historical and contemporary theories and practice methods relating to both the individual and the environment.
During the foundation year, students study human behavior and the social environment, history of social welfare policy,
research methods, assessment frameworks, family and community diversity, and social work values and ethics.
In the foundation curriculum students apply this generalist knowledge of theories and practice methods in the generalist
field practicum. The field practicum is completed concurrently with enrollment in two field seminar courses. The full
foundation curriculum is required of all students, with the exception of those admitted with advanced standing. Before
beginning the concentration curriculum, all foundation coursework and field hours must be successfully completed.
Concentration Curriculum
After completing the foundation requirements, students enroll in the concentration curriculum that they selected at the
time their application to the program. Students also complete an advanced field practicum. Augsburg offers two
concentrations: Multicultural Clinical Practice (MCCP) or Multicultural Macro Practice (MCMP). In either concentration,
students deepen their knowledge of the primary issues affecting families and communities, develop a range of clientcentered approaches to practice, gain a broader understanding of human diversity, develop competencies in practicebased research, and learn practice or program evaluation techniques.
In the concentration curriculum, students apply this advanced knowledge of theories and practice methods in the
concentration field practicum. The field practicum is relevant to their chosen concentration and is completed
concurrently with enrollment in two field seminar courses. As a capstone to the MSW program, students complete a
portfolio project or a summative evaluation project.
Multicultural Clinical Practice (MCCP) Concentration
Multiculturalism is a process requiring practitioners to have a deep awareness of their social and cultural identities, as
well as the ability to use multiple lenses when working with diverse populations. With person-in-environment as an
organizing perspective, multicultural clinical social work practice addresses the biopsychosocial and spiritual functioning
of individuals, families, and groups. To this end, graduates of the MCCP concentration develop competence in using
relationship-based, culturally informed, and theoretically grounded interventions with persons facing challenges,
disabilities, or impairments, including emotional, behavioral, and mental disorders.
Multicultural Macro Practice (MCMP) Concentration
In the tradition of Jane Addams, the heart of macro social work practice is directing energy toward changing agency,
government, and institutional policies that obscure or oppress people. While many social workers view their role as
focused on individuals and families, social workers must actively seek equality and justice for clients within agencies,
institutions and society. Social work leaders must advocate for social change where necessary to ensure social justice.
Similar to the MCCP concentration, it is important to address macro level social work practice within the context of
cultural understanding and awareness. The Multicultural Macro Practice concentration (formerly Program Development,
Policy and Administration) responds to this demand for leadership.
The macro social work practitioner recognizes the strengths and abilities of individuals and communities to implement
change. The social work macro practitioner works with these individuals to do so. In the MCMP concentration, students
91
learn the knowledge and skills necessary to work with others to achieve needed social change. They also learn to
develop, lead, guide, and administer programs that serve diverse people in a variety of settings.
Portfolio or Summative Evaluation Project
Portfolio Project (MCCP students)
The goal of the MCCP Portfolio is to enhance the integration of theory and practice, as well as to offer more vivid
portrayals of a student’s academic and professional experience than traditional assessments. By definition,
portfolios are formative (i.e., designed for guided reflection and self-evaluation). However they are also summative
documents in that they illustrate students’ competencies. All MCCP students are required to create a portfolio
during their final year of study. Items in a portfolio might include videos, process recordings, reflective statements,
writing samples, case analyses, term papers, electronic submissions, policy activities, feedback from service users,
self-evaluations of personal progress, and links to references.
Summative Evaluation Project (MCMP students)
All social workers must evaluate their practice to determine whether they are helping or harming clients. While in
the concentration practicum, MCMP students will design and implement a program evaluation for their summative
project. This project requires integration and application of knowledge and skills from both the foundation and
concentration curricula. Students develop their research while in their field internship and are advised by their field
seminar professor. Students conduct and present this evaluation/research project during their final year of study.
Master’s Thesis
Students in both concentrations have the option of completing a thesis in addition to either the portfolio or summative
evaluation project. Credit for the SWK 699 general elective is given for this option. Students work with a thesis advisor to
develop more in-depth research skills contributing to social work knowledge. To pursue the thesis option, students
should notify the MSW program director by the end of spring semester of the foundation year.
Degree requirements
To be conferred the MSW degree, students must achieve the following:
Successful completion of any admission conditions (see Admission to MSW)
Successful completion of all required MSW courses
No more than two courses with a B- grade and with a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or higher
Successful completion of 920 hours of approved field practica for foundation students or 500 hours of approved
field practicum for advanced standing students
Successful completion and submission of the portfolio project (MCCP) or the summative evaluation project (MCMP)
Successful completion of all degree requirements within 4 years of matriculation.
State of Minnesota Social Work Licensure
Six months prior to completion of the MSW degree at Augsburg, students may apply to take the Licensed Graduate
Social Worker (LGSW) license exam from the Minnesota Board of Social Work. To achieve LGSW licensure students must
pass the Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) master’s level national social work licensure examination and
complete the MSW degree.
To seek the Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) license or the Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker
(LICSW) license, one must work two years full-time (or 4,000 hours part-time) as an LGSW under the supervision of an
LISW or LICSW, depending on the desired licensure. Upon completion of the supervision requirement, one may take the
LISW or LICSW’s Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) national social work licensure examination. For the LICSW,
there are additional requirements for 360 clinical clock hours in 6 specific categories. For more information, go to the
Minnesota Board of Social Work web page, www.socialwork.state.mn.us.

Empowerment of Services Users in Mental Health
Children’s Mental Health
We also offer short-term electives abroad, typically two weeks in length: Exploring Human Services in International
Settings (examples include Mexico, Slovenia, Namibia, South Africa, India, Singapore, China, and Hong Kong)
Fieldwork and Field Placement
Social work education goes beyond the classroom. Through the field experience, we expect that students will
demonstrate skills to bridge theory and practice. Collaborative efforts between the student, the field agency, and the
MSW program are essential to successful learning. The foundation of the practice includes:
Ethical, competent professional practice
Problem solving within a systems framework and strengths perspective
Use of advanced practice theories in Multicultural Clinical Practice (MCCP) or Multicultural Macro Practice (MCMP)
settings
Evaluation of the effectiveness of program or practice activities
An understanding of and respect for diverse peoples and cultures
Responsibility and service to the local and global community in the interest of social justice
A commitment to oppose oppression of all forms
Field Education Format
Under the instruction and supervision of professionally-trained, MSW-level, and program-approved field instructors,
foundation students will spend a minimum of 920 hours in two field practica. Advanced standing students will spend a
minimum of 500 hours in one field practicum. Both the foundation and concentration practica are spread over 2
semesters (fall and spring). Both practica are concurrent with enrollment in integrative field seminars, as well as other
MSW coursework.
The fieldwork education of the MSW program is divided into two components:
Foundation Practicum
The foundation practicum, or generalist practicum, puts emphasis on developing competence as a professional
generalist social worker. It requires a minimum of 420 hours and is completed by students admitted at the
94
foundation level. Students spend an average of 15 hours per week during the fall and spring semesters in this
practicum.
Concentration Practicum
The concentration practicum places emphasis on advanced practice skills and leadership qualities related to the
chosen concentration. It requires a minimum of 500 hours and is completed by all students, including those
admitted with advanced standing. Students spend an average of 18 hours per week during the fall and spring
semesters in this practicum.
Process for Field Practicum Selection
Field practica begin in the fall, but the selection process begins the previous spring in collaboration with two other Twin
Cities MSW programs. Students attend a field orientation before beginning their search. Augsburg University and the
University of Minnesota - School of Social Work jointly host a field fair where students meet a large number of agencies
and potential field instructors. Practicum selection involves interviews at approved sites, arranged by the student, and a
matching process conducted collaboratively by the field coordinators at three of the MSW programs in the Twin Cities.
In some instances, students can petition to complete a field practicum at an agency not on the approved list or at their
place of employment. Students who wish to do so work with the MSW field coordinator for such proposals.
Field Practicum Settings
The Augsburg field faculty are committed to the success of each student in a stimulating and challenging field practicum.
Our current list of approved clinical and community practice field sites includes agencies in the following areas of
practice:
Family and children
Child welfare
Mental health
Crisis intervention
Senior resources
Family social policy
Health and human services
Corrections and probation
Public and independent schools
Youth services
Hospitals
Developmental disabilities
American Indian family services
Chronic and persistent mental illness
Chemical dependency
Court services
Immigrant, migrant, refugee services
Victims of torture
Faith-based social services
Neighborhood services
Legislation advocacy
Housing services
Employment services
Community organizing
Research centers

Dual Degree in Social Work and Business Administration (MSW/MBA)
Augsburg University offers a dual MSW/MBA degree in social work and business administration. Students enrolled in the
dual degree program learn to create better managed and financially sound service organizations to serve diverse
communities, both locally and globally.
Purpose
Many social service agencies today require that agency managers combine financial and business expertise with social
work practice and policy formation. The MSW/MBA dual degree prepares graduates to function in a workplace that
demands the delivery of quality services with increasingly limited resources.
Concentration
The MSW/MBA dual degree includes an accelerated third year of study for MSW students who elect the Multicultural
Macro Practice (MCMP) concentration. In this concentration, students learn to effect positive change in social service
systems through their work with communities, organizations, and social policy makers. Prior Augsburg MSW graduates
who have completed the necessary Multicultural Macro Practice (MCMP) coursework are eligible to return to complete
the MBA portion of the dual degree. The MSW degree must be completed before the MBA portion of the dual degree.
Schedule
Years 1 and 2 (September through June)
MSW classes meet on alternating weekends—Friday evenings, Saturday mornings, and Saturday afternoons—and
students engage in hybrid learning activities between class weekends.
Year 3 (12–16 months)
MBA classes meet one night per week. The MBA program includes a summer term. See the MBA section for required
courses for the dual degree.
Curriculum
Foundation or advanced standing coursework
Either 920 hours (foundation) or 500 hours (advanced standing) MSW field practicum experience
The MSW summative evaluation project may be accepted by the MBA program as partial fulfillment of the MBA
project.
Complete a minimum of eight MBA courses for students who completed the MSW degree 2002 and beyond;
complete a minimum of nine MBA courses for students who completed the MSW degree prior to 2002
For more information regarding the MBA coursework required for the MSW/MBA dual degree, see the MBA section.
MBA Admission
MSW/MBA dual degree applicants may apply to both programs at the same time or admitted MSW students may wait
to apply to the MBA program until their concentration year. The GMAT is waived for MSW/MBA dual degree applicants.
MBA application materials include: completed application, two short essays, an updated resume, two letters of
recommendation, and a personal interview with the MBA program director. Admission to one program does not
guarantee admission to the other.

expect to purchase textbooks and student liability insurance when in a field placement. There may also be additional
fees associated with short-term study abroad electives.
Graduate Scholarship Search Tips
As you may know, graduate students do not have access to many of the financial aid opportunities open to
undergraduates. Because of this, we strongly encourage you to spend time doing your own independent research into
graduate funding available locally, nationally, and internationally.
The simplest way to begin a search for graduate funding is to look online. There are many scholarship search engines
online. The following websites may provide a good starting point for your search:

MSW Forum
All MSW students are invited to participate in the student-run organization, the MSW Forum. The purpose of the forum
is to facilitate communication between social work students and the social work department, as well as to provide the
opportunity for student participation in departmental governance, curriculum development, and program
improvements. As such, forum members are invited to attend Social Work Department meetings via representatives.
The forum has historically been volunteer based. Any student may serve on the forum, provided the student can make a
commitment to attend the meetings and share in the efforts. The MSW director and MSW program coordinator also
serve on the forum. Other faculty may be invited as permanent members or as guests.
Past forum members established these guidelines:
Provide an avenue for students to share and discuss ideas and/or concerns related to the MSW educational
experience with the Social Work Department
Encourage constructive dialogue among students, faculty, and department and University administrators
Make recommendations to the department regarding program improvements
Receive and give feedback on expectations of faculty, students, and the University
Plan and coordinate MSW student events, lectures, discussions
Organize social action projects

General Inf ormatian
HISTORICAL SKETCH
AUGSBURG
was begun as a seminary in 1869, at Marshall, Wisconsin.
It was the first theological school founded by Norwegian Lutherans
in America. Through an arrangement with a private institution known
as Marshall Academy, the Seminary was at first housed in the academy
building. Students who needed further preparation in academic subjects were to obtain this in the academy. In the autumn of 1872 Augsburg Seminary was removed to Minneapolis, Minnesota, where a
building had been erected for its use. In the same year the school was
incorporated under the laws of Minnesota. Its aim was to train ministers for the Lutheran congregations which were being organized in
growing numbers in the pioneer settlements that were spreading rapidly
over the Northwest.
The College was established when it became evident that in order to
get students who were adequately prepared for theological study a
college department was needed. In 1874 a curriculum was planned
which provided for one year of preparatory studies and four
years of college work along two lines, a classical course to prepare
students for theology, and a scientific course to prepare for other
professions. The first college students were enrolled in 1874 and the
first class was graduated in 1879.
In 1900 a high schaaI course covering three years was estabkhed
which in 1910 was expanded to a standard four-year course. This
was discontinued in 3833. In the years 1916-1919the mlIege course
was thoroughly revised. A s a result of W w and of subsequent growth,
the earlier clcsieal course was geatIy modified and suppIemmted bp
social and ~ i e n t i f i cstudies and a more general emphasis upon the
study nf she humanities. Tn recent rears there has been continuoas
stud? and modification Q £ the curriculum including the introduction
of a number of new majors to meet the developing needs of the ~tuderits.
The divisional organization was adopted in 1945. At the present time
26 majors are offered.
Coeducation was introduced in the College in 1922.
8
/ General information
Recent years, especially since the close of World War 11, have witnessed a greatly increased enrollment and a corresponding expansion of
physical facilities both in campus area and in buildings.
In the Theological Seminary there L s likewise been a continuing
revision of the curriculum and the addition of new courses to meet
changing needs. The requirement of a six-month period of internship
was added in 1939. A bachelor's degree or equivalent is the required
scholastic preparation for admission.
While the Theological Seminary has its own organization, the Seminary and the College continue to function in close cooperation and as
integral parts of one institution.
Five presidents have served Augsburg during the course of its history.

FUNDAMENTAL AIMS
THE EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES of Augsburg College and Theological
Seminary spring from the conviction that in the Christian religion
there are revealed the most basic truths concerning both man and God,
and that Christianity is the fundamental force for good in human life
and society. All the aims of the College, as well as those of the Seminary, are integrated with this principle.
Students who enroll at Augsburg are invited to take up their work
with the distinct understanding that the Christian spirit is determining
in all things. They are expected to cooperate wholeheartedly in the
program of the school towards that end. The entire program of the
school, curricular and extra-curricular, and the discipline necessary to
make possible the carrying out of this program, spring from the aim
"to see all things through the eyes of Christ."

The library subscribes to about 425 of the best periodicals dealing
with a large variety of subjects, as well as a number of serials devoted
to the interests of special fields.
In the Twin City area other libraries are located which make their
holdings available to Augsburg students, notably, the St. Paul and
Minneapolis public libraries, the latter of which issues library cards
to out-of-town students for each school year; the James Jerome Hill
Reference Library in St. Paul, which has one of the finest reference
collections in the Northwest; and the University of Minnesota Library,
within walking distance of the Augsburg campus. Augsburg students
make extensive use of all these libraries.
NATURAL SCIENCE LABORATORIES
THE LABORATORIES of the Natural Sciences are located in the
Science Hall. Three laboratories and storeroom and office space
for Biology are located on the second floor; three larger laboratories
and two special research laboratories for Chemistry and two laboratories for Physics are located on the third and fourth floors. A chemistry library is located near the research facilities. Storerooms and
faculty offices are also located here.
Financial Information
A
CONSIDERABLE PART of the income on which Augsburg operates is
derived from endowment and from gifts, a major part of the latter
coming from the supporting church. Therefore, the fees charged the
student do not constitute the whole cost of his education, for he enjoys

Campus Life
THEINPLUEKCES which mould life and character on a college campus are
of many kind?. While rhe exercises of classroom, Iaboratary, and
library f o m ~the organizing basis of college a c t i v i ~ ?they need ro be
supplemented by ather than academic forces. T h e e intangible but
very real supplementary influrnces have n1uc11to do with ereatirg the
spirit of an institution. At .4ugsburg definirc emphasis is placed upon
thf maintenance of a rvholcmn~espirit of Christian community living*
Students are urged t o gite conscious attmtion to this personal and
spiritual side of their development and thus contribute toward the
prevalence of a vital and happy Christian atmosphere on the campus.
It is the earnest desire of those who direct the policies of Augsburg
that the institution may constantly be permeated by an atmosphere in
which the quest for Truth as it is in Christ is prayerfully fostered in
each life.
All students are required to conlplete fourteen credit hours in courses
offered in Religion. There are numerous voluntary religious activities
in which students are encouraged to participate. Spiritual Emphasis
Week is held twice each year. It is assumed that every Augsburg student
will find a church home in Minneapolis and attend its services regularly.
It is expected of each student that his life, conduct, and influence,
both on and off campus, shall be worthy of a member of a Christian
College. Those who do not feel drawn to this quality of life and to the
fellowship in which it is nourished should not seek to be enrolled at
Augsburg. A truly Christian spirit and environment must be the
product of the united effort and prayer of faculty, students, and administration.
THE CHAPELSERVICE
The heart of Augsburg's program of Christian education is the daily
Chapel Service, where the faculty and students gather for united worship, prayer, and a brief meditation upon the Word of God. Regular
attendance is expected of all students.
RECREATION STANDARDS AND DISCIPLINE
At Augsburg all the work of the college rests on certain Biblical
affirmations about human nature and man's relation to God. The college
regards the Christian life as the truly significant life. This life implies
an intimate relation to the person of Christ. In the content of this
primary relationship the Christian also lives in a relationship to people,
to events, to things. The fact that God not only created the world but
became Man gives evidence that life in this world is not to be despised.
Campus Life
/ 25
The Christian liberal arts college takes seriously these relationships
and therefore seeks to educate the whole man. It follows that one of its
important responsibilities is to establish recreational programs and
policies that contribute to this end. It should be clear, however, that
in an age which is much concerned with the pursuit of pleasure, a
college like Augsburg should never subordinate its academic program
to leisure-time activities. On the contrary, the recreational program
must be in the content of, and be congruent with, the major inellectual
quests of the college; and both must have as their goal to help the
individual to live an effectual Christian life in the world.
In setting up a recreational and social program, Augsburg is conscious of its position as a coeducational Christian college of liberal
arts. The program takes into account the relationship between sexes
and seeks to provide normal and healthy opportunities for the expression
of the mutual attraction of the sexes. Augsburg offers a varied and
selective recreational and social program which gives preference to
those activities which are emancipatory rather than restrictive, those
which enrich community life rather than those which are divisive or
encourage selfish satisfactions.
The college provides a rarietr- of activities designed to meet these
requirements. The ancial p-rogam includes a number of organized allschool went5 combined with many les-structured activities designed
for specified smaller poups. Tn nttempting to meet the needs and
interests o f all Angsburg fhdenb, we make use of dl existing facilities
on campus and m a t y of those which are available in the Twin City area.
In seeking to develop a constructive recreational program, some
limitations have been placed upon certain other activities. The college
is opposed to all forms of gambling. I t forbicb the posmaion or consumption of alcoholic bererages in dormitories; in any collegeapproved place of residence, or at an? college-spansored event. Any
student found under the influence of Liquor i s subject to disciplinary
action. SociaI. or ballroom dancing. is not a part of the recreztiond
program of the college. Students arr encouraged to be digcriminating in
all types of recreation in which they engag. [hat their time may be well
v e n t . and strong moral and ethical ralues map be developed. Such
common activitie: as television vierving and movie-going. for example,
can easily become time-wasting and even detrimental to the development
of moral and ethical values.
Without attempting ta dictate to the indiridud conscience, the
college regards i t as its right to ask its students t o adapt thernselve.
to the social p r a p a m approred by the college and to follow it as memh e n of the cr~llegecommunity. Although thp college l a ~ dowm
s
specific
rules regarding most mattes only with respect to activities centering
on the rampus. it reserves the right t o dismiss any studmt whose
cnntinuation in colZegr is deemed undeirahle for social as we11 as for
academic reaFons. It i s the policy of the c o l l ~ pthat such action shall
not be taken capriciously, but only after the avaiIable campus resources
of counseling and judicial processes have been utilized. Thus, dis-
t6
/ C m W Life
ciplinary problems are first dealt with through counseling. Those not
solved in this way are channeled to a faculty-student Judicial Council
through the Office of the Dean of Students. In all such cases, careful
investigation and the privilege of a hearing precede any disciplinary
action.
RELIGIOUS PROGRAM
The Religious Life Commission, composed of students and faculty,
endeavors to promote a religious program that will stimulate growth
of Christian life in the Augsburg community. Chairman of this council
is the student Commissioner of Religious Activities. Areas for which
this committee carries primary responsibility are the Mid-Week services,
Spiritual Emphasis Weeks, prayer meetings, informal group meetings,
and a Pre-seminary club.
This Commission also serves as a coordinating agency for all voluntary Christian organizations on campus. The principal organization
is the Student Christian Association. The SCA seeks to serve as a
stimulus and outlet for Christian faith and life. Students participate
in regional and national Lutheran Student Association of America
Conferences, and conduct a schedule of meetings on campus.
The Mission Society, the service organization of SCA promotes
interest in missions through a program of study, fellowship, worship,
and service. A highlight of the year is the Mission Festival, a week-end
conference devoted to the study of missionary activity and recruitment
of workers.
The Concordia Society is an organization for all the students in the
Theological Seminary.
CONVOCATION
Regular convocations are held each Thursday throughout the year.
These programs acquaint the campus community with outstanding
personalities in various fields. A wide range of interests is covered,
including the scientific, political, social, religious, and artistic.
SOCIAL AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES
Students at Augsburg are given many opportunities for social training
and recreation. The S t d e n t Council through the Commissioner of
Social Activities, assisted by a Commission on Social and Recreational

HIGH SCHOOL TEACHING
Each state sets certain requirements for obtaining a teacher's certificate. The course outlined below satisfies the requirements for a certificate for teaching in Minnesota at the junior and senior high school
level. The same program will meet the demands set by most of the
neighboring states. The student should apply to the Department of
Education for admission to the Education curriculum during his Sophomore year. Admission will be determined by a committee on the basis
of scholarship and other qualifications. Except with special majors such
as music, home economics, combined natural science, business education, and language arts, students should usually prepare for competency
in at least two subject-matter fields in which high schools offer work.
Areas in which they may obtain teaching majors or minors include
English, German, Spanish, French, speech, music, history, social
science, business education, home economics, biology, physics, chemistry, natural science, mathematics, and physical education. Minors are
also offered in Scandinavian language and literature, art, political
science, and library science.

good academic record in their preparatory studies in college.

their studies are to be pursued under the direction of the Theological
Facu1t;r. :lnp arrangement to take a part of h e theological course at
another seminary must have the prior approval of h e Tlrmlogical
Faculty at Augsburg.
Advanced standing is granted in certain instances, when a student

EXPENSES
SEMINARY
STUDENTS pay no tuition. They do, however, pay a Seminary
fee of forty dollars ($40.00) per semester. This includes the general
library, health, student activities and mail box fees. Unmarried students
living in college or seminary housing receive a special grant to cover
the cost of room rent. The cost of board is the same as for the College
students. See under Financial Information. A graduation fee of $7.50
is payable a month before graduation.
CLASS ATTENDANCE
A STUDENT IS EXPECTED to attend all classes regularly. Unavoidable
absences may be excused by the Dean. Attendance at any conference
involving absence from classes must have the approval of the Dean
well in advance of the conference.
EMPLOYMENT
THEWORK in the Seminary should be regarded as a full time vocation.
However, when a student's circumstances require it, a limited amount
of remunerative work will be permitted. This must be arranged in
consultation with the Dean. Occasional preaching engagements may be
accepted, but a student is not allowed to supply a vacant parish more
frequently than every other Sunday.
CONDITIONS AND ZNCOMPLETES
A
CONDITION or an incomplete received at the end of the semester
must be removed within the first six weeks of classes of the following
semester or within a year if the student has not re-enrolled. If incomplete~and conditions are not removed within the time allowed, the
condition automatically becomes a failure and the incomplete will be
recorded as a passing grade only if the average of previous work is
sufficiently high.
SEIWINARY INTERNSHIP
IN ADDITION to the three years of theological study in the Seminary
each student is required to spend six months in practical service, as
appointed and supervised by the Committee on Service. This work is
done during the summer vacations between the beginning and conclusion of the Seminary course.
A limited amount of assigned collateral reading is required during
the in-service period.
The Seminary students are also encouraged to engage in a limited
amount of practical church work during the school year either in the
Twin Cities or in nearby communities.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
ALL SEMINARY STUDENTS are members of the Concordia Society. A
principal purpose of this organization is "to promote and strengthen
a deeper spiritual fellowship among its members." The weekly meetings
are devoted to prayer and to the consideration of student affairs. The
Seminary joins with the College in a daily chapel service.
During his seminary years, each student is associated with a specific
congregation and is encouraged to serve there. As a united project,
the Concordia Society has recently assumed responsibility for conducting Saturday noon services at the Gateway Mission.
The Concordia Society promotes student participation in the InterSeminary Movement and in the Association of Lutheran Seminaries in
America. On a more local level, the student body participates in a
fellowship of five Protestant seminaries in the Twin Cities.

HISTORY AND AIMS
FUNDAMENTAL
AIMS
T h e educationai purposes of Augsburg College and Theological
Seminary spring from the conviction that Christianity is rhe fundamental force for good in human life. All rhe aims of rhe College,
as well as those of the Seminary, are bound together by this principle. To express more distinctty the meaning of this, the following statement of aims has been formulated by the College faculty:
T o lead the studemt to a deeper understanding and pe~sonal
realization of the truth and power of the Chr3stian Gospel, to
the end that he may become an effective participant in the
evangelical and missionary task of the Church and an earnest
advocate of the Christian way of life both for the individual and
for society.

wetfare of our institutions and for the preservation of our
liberties in communiry and nation, and also develop an enlightened interest and participarion in human affairs throughout the rest of the worId.
T o cultivate in the student a Cht-istian social spirit, in order
that he may realize in his life a right balance between what he

ambitions, and Aemunds in a way that will effectively contribute toward the development of good character.
T o train the studercf in scientific methods of study and also
develop his understanding of the relations of science to the
welfare of humanity.
To stirnd.de intellectuul iderest and dewelup schhzrly insight, so that the student may learn to think with accuracy
and comprehension at the same time as he experiences an understanding of truth which will help him to integrate the findings of science with the deepest spiritual reality.

course was thoroughly revised in conformity with modern developments. As a result of this and of subsequent growth, the strictly
classical course has been largely modified and supplemented by
social and scientific studies and a more general emphasis upon the
study of the humanities. During 'the past ten years Majors' have
been added in the fields of Business Administration, Sckiology,
Physical Education, Music, and Home Economics. Until 1921
only men were admitted, but in that year coeducation was introduced.
In the Theological Seminary there has likewise been introduction
of new courses and enlargement of the faculty. Standards of admission have been raised so that a bachelor's degree or equivalent
is now the required scholastic preparation. While the Theological
Seminary has its own organization, the Seminary and the College
function in close cooperation. Long experience has proved such
an arrangement mutually wholesome and stimulating.
Five Presidents have served Augsburg during the course of its
history. The terms of oflice of two of these cover a span of over
half a century. The first President was August Weenaas, who
served from 1869 to 1876. He was succeeded by Georg Sverdrup,
I 876 t o 1907. Sven Oftedal served from 1907 to 191I and was
followed by George Sverdru~,whose term extended from I 9 I I to
1937. H. N. Hendrickson served as Acting President from 1937
until the election of Bernhard Christensen in 1938.
From I 870 to I 890, Augsburg was supported by the NorwegianDanish Lutheran Conference. The merger of that church body
with two others, in 1890, resulted in the aililiation of Augsburg
with the newly created United Norwegian Lutheran Church. Due
to ditFerences concerning the control of Augsburg a division arose,
and in 1897 congregations whose sympathies were deeply rooted in
Augsburg formed the Luthcrzn Free Church. The resulting close
association, in educational and spiritual activity, of Augsburg and
the Lutheran Free Church has been marked by complete harmony
of purpose and ideals for more than haIf a century.
The control exercised by the Lutheran Free Church is indirect.
The Annual Conference of the Church nominates the members
of the Augsburg Corporation and the Board of Trustees. The Cor-
poration through the Board of Trustees exercises direct control
over property, finance, and personnel. Academic control is vested
in the President and the Faculty.
In addition to the income from student tuition and fees, which
has materially increased with the growth and development of the
College, the chief hancial support of the institution comes from
the congregations of the Lutheran Free Church. In recent years a'
growing circle of friends also outside the Lutheran Free Church,
both alumni and others, have contributed financially t o the support of the school. Augsburg welcomes and invites such support on
the part of all who believe in her program of vital Christian education.
Augsburg College is a member of the Association of American
college& the National Lutheran Educational Conference, the Association of Minnesota Colleges, and the State Council of Minnesota Colleges.
BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT
LOCATION
Augsburg College and Theological Seminary is located in the
Riverside Park area of South Minneapolis, across the Mississippi
River from the University of Minnesota and within walking distance of the main business section of the city. Science Hall, containing the administration oaces, is located at the corner of Seventh Street and Twenty-first Avenue South. Augsburg students
have the advantage of getting their college education in a metropolitan center pulsating with industrial, social, and cultural activities. They have access to libraries, museums, and art collections.
They may hear the best music and lectures. They may contact
modern life at one of its focal points.
BUILDINGS
The Main, erected in 1900, contains the Chapel, the Library,
the Seminary classrooms and osces, and a number of college classrooms and ogces.
Science Hall, erected in 1948-49 and taken into use at the beginning of the present school year, is a large and completely modern college building. I t includes, besides the administration offices, well-equipped laboratories for Chemistry, Physics, Biology,
and Home Economics, as well as the student organization offices,
the Student Center, a small auditorium, classrooms,. and faculty
offices. On the fourth floor is the Tower Prayer Chapel.
Sverdrup-Oftedal Memorial Hall, erected in 1938, is a modern,
fireproof dormitory affording living quarters for about 150 men.
On the ground floor of this building is the college cafeteria and
dining hall.
Sivertsen Hall, acquired in 1939, is a splendid dormitory accommodating about 50 women. Plans are under way for the
erection of an addition to this dormitory.
Morton Hall, erected in 1888, and Edda House, purchased and
remodeled in 1948, are smaller dormitories for women, each accommodating about 2 0 students.
During 1947 two new buildings were added, both located on
23rd Avenue across the Square from the older part of the Campus.
The Gymnasium, a well-built and well-equipped temporary structure, was erected for the College by the Federal Works Agency
as a part of a program providing educational facilities for veterans.
The Music Hall, formerly the Tabernacle Baptist Church, was
acquired by purchase, and remodeled to serve the needs of the
Music Department.
Quite a number of dwellings have been acquired in recent years
in the expanded campus area, which are used for faculty and
student housing until this need can be met through more permanent structures. Also three temporary housing units have been
erected by the Federal Works Agency on the campus ground.
The President's Home, a beautiful residence of modern architectural design, located at the south of the Square, was erected in
1949.
Some years ago the beginning was made of a Museum for the
school. Members of the Alumni Association have presented manv
valuable gifts. There are several collections: a Madagascar Col-
lection, a Santal Collection, and a considerable collection of rare
minerals, curios, etc. Contributions should be sent to Prof. L.
Lillehei, Curator.
In the spring of 1929 the Augsburg Archive Society was organized. The purpose of this organization is to gather and preserve
documents, books, and other articles of historical value. To house
the Archives a fire-proof room which was provided in the Main
has been replaced recently by a large room on the ground floor of
Science Hall. Here are now found a fine collection of periodicals,
old and rare books, manuscripts, letters, and pictures, and also
about ~ , o o ovolumes of Norwegian-American literature, affording rich resources for scholarly research. Further contributions
to the Archives should be sent to Prof. L. Lillehei, Archivist.
The collectio~sin the Library aggregate about 26,000 volumes
exclusive of pamphlets.
Two hundred of the best periodicals, and pamphlets dealing
with popular subjects, and a number of serials devoted to the interests of special fields are received currently.
Students have access to the Library daily from 7:45 A. M. to
1o:oo P. M. On Saturday the Library closes at 4:00 P. M.
In the Twin City area other libraries are located which make
their holdings available to Augsburg students, notably, the St.
Paul and Minneapolis public libraries, the latter of which issues
library cards to out-of-town students for each school year; the
James Hill Reference Library in St. Paul, which has one 'of the
finest reference collections in the Northwest; and the University
of Minnesota Library, which is within walking distance of the
Augsburg campus and is a splendid source of materials for research
papers. Each year Augsburg students make extensive use of all
these libraries.
The laboratories of the Natural Sciences are located in the
Science Hall.
Three laboratories and two storerooms for Biology are located
on the second floor; three laboratories and a large storeroom for
Chemistry, and a laboratory and the two storeroams for Physics
are located on the third floor.
To facilitate instruction the callege provides many excellent
visual and auditory aids. Available for classroom use, and for the
use of other college activities, are the following: 16mm. sound
movie projector, 3 I / q q inch slide projector (several), 2 y ' ~ 2 yslide
y
projector, Balopticon, sound ampliiication system, film strip projector, magnetic tape recording machine. There is also a well
equipped photography department.

STUDENT COMMUNITY LIFE
The influences which mould life and character on a college campus are of many kinds. While the exercises of classroom, laboratory,
and library form the organizing basis of college activity, they need
to be supplemented by other than academic forces. These intangible
but very real supplementary influences have much to do with
creating the spirit of an institution. At Augsburg definite emphasis is placed upon the maintenance of a wholesome spirit of
Christian community living. Students are urged to give conscious
attention to this personal and spiritual side of their development
and thus contribute toward the prevalence of a vital and happy
Christian atmosphere on the campus.
I t is the earnest desire of those who direct the policies of Augsburg that the institution may constantly be permeated by an at-
GENERALINFORMATION
mosphere in which the quest for Truth as it is in Christ is prayerfully fostered in the life of each student.
23
In order to help toward attaining these goals the faculty and
students gather in chapel every day for a brief meditation upon
the Word of God and the deepest needs of the human soul. Regular attendance is expected of all students. All students are required to register for two class hours per week in one of the courses
&red in Religion. There are numerous voluntary religious activities in which students are urged to participate. Spiritual Emphasis Week is heId twice each year. It is assumed that every Augsburg student will find a church home in Minneapolis and attend
its services regularly.
CULTURAL
OPPORTUNITIES
Augsburg's location in Minneapolis gives its students unique
opportunities to make use of some of the finest educational and
cultural advantages which the Northwest has to offer. Excellent
art collections are to be found in The Minneapolis Institute of
Arts and the Walker Art Gallery. The Twin City libraries are
large and extensive in their services. The Historical Museum in
St. Paul gives access to large collections of historical material.
In the Twin Cities are located both the University of Minnesota
and several colleges, affording contacts which are conducive to intellectual and cultural stimulus and development.
CONVOCATION
Regular convocation programs are held a t Augsburg &roughout
the year. These programs aim to acquaint the campus community
with outstanding personalities and problems in various fields. A
wide range of interests is covered, including the scientzc, political,
social, religious, and artistic.
STUDENT PERSONNEL SERVICES
ADMINISTRATION
The coordination of the many ~ersonnelservices is the responsibility of a twelve-member Faculty Council headed by the Dean
of the College. Individual members of the Council or subcommittees direct the various activities, which include academic and
personal counseling, housing and food service, recreation and
health, employment and placement, and student activities.
1
The Luther League, the Mission Society, the Lutheran Student
Association, the National Student Association Council, and a
large number of departmental and special interest clubs are directly supervised by the Student Council. A Student-Faculty committee of eight members promotes and supervises student activities
serving as a liaison between the Faculty and Student Councils.
The counseling program for new students begins as soon as the
Admissions and Scholarship Committee has approved their applications. All available data concerning each prospective student are
combined with test results obtained during Freshman Week for
use during registration.
Each new student is assigned a faculty counselor, generally on
the basis of mutual academic interest. This assignment continues
for the first two years. At a scheduled period during Freshman
Week, the student meets with his counselor for registration. At
least three additional counseling periods are scheduled for each
semester. Whenever he feels the need, the student is encouraged
to see his counselor for help to discover and develop as fully as p a sible his latent abilities. Upper-class students are counseled by
their major advisers.
Additional counseling is provided for the students by the use
of student counselors. Each entering Freshman is assigned a student counselor, who works with a faculty counselor in each instance. The program is organized by a Student Counselor Steering Committee working with the Personnel Committee.
Adjustment to college is one of several subjects introduced during Freshman Week. The various phases of this important problem of personal adjustment are given thorough study in the Orientation course which meets one hour per week throughout the
first semester. Vocational possibilities within the divisional organization of the College are presented and course sequences are discussed. Personal and health probl&s, social adjustment, vocational and educational aims are examined from the point of view
of individual needs.
Special problems in counseling are referred to the Personnel
Committee, which is composed of a member of the Department of
Christianity, the Registrar, a professor of Psychology, the Director
of Physical Education, the Dean of Women, and the Dean of Men,
who serves as chairman. The administration of the counseling
program is the work of the Personnel Committee.
A system of referral makes available to any student the resources
and special abilities of the entire faculty. Through all phases of
the counseling program, the primary aim is the welfare of the individual student.
The personal problems of the students are dealt with in the light
of the following spiritual purposes and ideals. It is expected
of each student that his life, conduct, and influence, both on and
off campus, shall be worthy of a member of a Christian College.
Those who do not feel drawn to this quality of life and to the
fellowship in which it is nourished should not seek to be enrolled
at Augsburg. A truly Christian spirit and environment must be
the product of the united effort and prayer of faculty, students,
and administration.
The Christian ideals of Augsburg give no room for such demoralizing practices as gambling, drinking, frequenting of public
dances, indiscriminate attendance at movies, and objectionable
card playing. Students enrolled at Augsburg must, therefore, not
participate in such practices.
Augsburg reserves the right t o dismiss or to discipline any student who is not amenable t o advice and direction. The school likewise reserves the right to dismiss any student whose general conduct or influence is unwholesome. Such a student may be removed
although no formal charge is made against him.
RECREATION AND
SOCIALLIFE
"No man is a hypocrite in his pleasures." To learn to enjoy the
right form of recreational activities is an important aspect of preparation for life. A t Augsburg there is a definite attempt to encourage the formation of helpful recreational habit-patterns, not
only as regards the definitely planned play-program supervised and
directed by the Department of Physical Education, but as regards
the use of leisure time in general. Wholesome social activities of
many kinds are fostered and encouraged. Also in this area the goal
is "to see all things through the eyes of Christ."
The Stdent Center, in the new Science Hall, serves as a social,
cultural, and conference area for students. During the day, students use the Center as a general reading and committee room.
The campus post o6ce is adjacent to the Student Center, as
are also The Student Council Room and The Echo and The Augsburgian o0ices.
The Prayer Chapel in the tower of the new Science Hall is open
at all times for quiet meditation and prayer. Smaller groups may
request the use of the chapel for devotional meetings.
A room for off campus men is located in Sverdrup-Oftedal
Memorial Hall and for off campus women in Morton Hall.
All students who are not living at home are required to room in
the College dormitories, unless permission to room elsewhere is
granted by one of the Deans. Such permission must be secured
before final arrangements are made.
Residents in dormitories are required to take their meals in the
College dining hall except those students who are employed away
from the College. The charges for room and board are payable in
advance.
The residence halls are open for the occupancy of students on
the day preceding the beginning of registration. Temporary arrangements may be made for students who have permission to
come early to seek employment. Meals are served commencing on
the morning of the first. day of registration.
Dormitories are officially closed daring all vacations within
twenty-four hours after the last session of -class work except by
special arrangement with the Deans.
Dormitory residents are held responsible for breakage or injury
to the furniture and furnishings.
The College believes in the educational value of group living
under faculty supervision. It is expected that life in the dormitories should foster the development of Christian character, selfcontrol, and consideration for the rights of others.
SVERDRUP-OFTEDAL
MEMORIAL
&L
This dormitory for men, erected in 1938, accommodates about
students. The modern arrangement of the dormitory, with its
suites of two rooms for every three or four students, helps to make
this an inviting College home for men. The rooms are furnished
except for bedding and linen.
I 50
HOUSINGFOR WOMEN
The college operates a cottage plan of supervised residences for
women, pending the building of the planned additions to Sivertsen
Hall.
College-operated residences for women include Sivertsen Hall,
2323 South Sixth Street, which houses fifty; Morton Hall, 730
rznd Avenue South, which houses twenty; Edda House, 2222 7%
Street South, which houses twenty-four.
Rooms are furnished except for bedding and linens. Laundry
facilities are provided in each unit.
Assignment of rooms is made after the first of August. An
attempt is made to assign the rooms so as to meet the student
interests and needs, and to create congenial housing units.
Sivertsen Hall, acquired in 1939 through the generosity of Dr.
Ivar Sivertsen, accommodates about fifty Freshman women students. The first floor has a large reception room used for social
functions. In the basement are a kitchenette and a recreation room.
Applications for rooms should be sent as soon as a student is
notified of his acceptance. Applicants will be assigned to dormitory
rooms in the order in which their applications are received.
Rooms are assigned to present occupants of the dormitories by
August first. After that, they are assigned to new applicants in
the order of application.
Students who cannot be accommodated in permanent dormitories may find rooms in temporary housing units. Rooms in approved private homes are also available. Arrangements for these
rooms are made through the Personnel Office.
For married students, the college has two temporary housing
buildings, each accommodating four families.
FOOD SERVICE
The ground floor of the Sverdrup-Oftedal Memorial Hall houses
a cafeteria and dining-haall, a social room, and a private diningroom.
All students, campus and off campus, share in the privilege of
using these service units. The dining-hall will furnish food at
cost to student groups, for special parties or picnics.
The program of health service is in charge of the Director of
Physical Education and Recreation, who is assisted by the School
Physician and the School Nurse. It includes regular physical examinations, corrective measures where needed, and a school-wide
program of recreation and physical training. Infirmary Rooms are
provided for the use of those who are ill. The ogce is in Room I I I,
Memorial Hall.
Students, faculty, and staff have chest X-rays taken semi-annually through the cooperation of the Hennepin County Tuberculosis Association Mobile Unit. The service is free.
A large number of college students find it necessary to secure
part-time employment while carrying on their studies. The Employment Service, operated by the Oflice of Public Relations, has
been successful in placing hundreds of men and women students
in part-time positions. Many Minneapolis institutions and firms
have gladly cooperated in this enterprise. The types of work secured are of many kinds, including recreational leadership, restaurant work, domestic service, sales work, and secretarial and
clerical work.
Students are employed by the college in many activities. For
these positions preference is given to upper-class students who
have maintained a good scholastic average.
AppIication forms for part-time employment on or off campus
may be secured from the Oflice of Public Relations.
The Placement Bureau seeks to assist members of the graduating
class, as well as alumni, in securing positions. A registration fee
and a small placement fee are charged.

Freshmen who obtain honor point ratios of .5 or below, Sophomores .6 or below, and senior college students .8 or below, as well as students with 6 or more credits of F, at the end of a semester are placed on proba— tion during the semester that follows. They remain on probation until an honor point ratio of I is attained for one semester. A student is not allowed to remain in college on probation for more than two semesters consecutively, except by special permission. In order to be eligible for membership in inter-collegiate athlet- ics, the choir, choral club, band, debate teams, Augsburg Student Council, or on the staffs of publications (Echo, Augsburgian, Dial), a student must have obtained in his last semester a passing grade in at least 12 hours of college work, 6 of which must be C or better. Fall semester eligibility is determined by the final grades of the preceding term. Second semester eligibility is determined by the mid-semester grades of the first semester. CLASS ATTENDANCE Regular attendance in class is required. No “cuts” are allowed. However, students may be excused from class if there is a valid reason for absence. Valid reasons for absence include illness and trips by extra-curricular organizations sponsored by the school. Students are expected to arrange the hours of part-time employ- ment so that work does not conflict with classes. Any exception to this rule must be agreed to by the teacher of the class affected and must be approved by the Registrar. Students are required to present to the instructor a written ex- planation of absences upon their return to class. The validity of the excuse is determined by the instructor. Classwork lost because of necessary absences must be made up. Each unexcused absence reduces the grade to be awarded on the completion of a course. When a student has four unexcused absences, he shall be reported to the Registrar, who will drop the student from the course with a grade of F. Absences before and after vacation will be counted double. Teachers will deal with tardiness as they see fit, but may count three tardinesses as equal to one absence.
