Consent for Electronic Communications
The electronic communications policy at St. Francis School of Law is part of a global “Consent to do Business Electronically” agreement and is presented to students annually upon signing the Enrollment Agreement. Students provide their consent for electronic communications as part of the Enrollment Agreement. Once consent is given it is in effect for the duration of the terms included in the Enrollment Agreement, or until a request for withdrawal of consent is received from the student.
Although, St. Francis School of Law reserves the right to provide records in paper format at any time, a student’s consent to conduct business electronically with St. Francis School of Law is also an agreement that St. Francis School of Law is not required to provide those same communications in a paper format. Students wishing to retain a paper copy of any records provided electronically can do so by printing or saving a copy of the communication.
