Single Account Policy
This policy ensures that every account on the WQU learning platform represents one real, identifiable person. Limiting each person to a single account protects the integrity of the services WQU provides to its students, prevents fraud and abuse, keeps access and benefits fair, and allows the University to accurately attribute activity and enforce its academic and administrative policies.
Each student may create and maintain only one account on the WQU learning platform, regardless of the number of programs they are enrolled in. Creating, operating, or controlling more than one account is prohibited unless expressly permitted by the Academic Dean or other authorized personnel.
Creating duplicate accounts to bypass restrictions currently in place is strictly prohibited. This includes creating multiple accounts to gain additional attempts at an Admission Test or to apply to multiple graduate programs, and creating a new account after an existing account has been suspended, terminated, or withdrawn.
Violations of this policy will result in one or more of the following, depending on severity, intent, and history of the violation:
A warning and consolidation/closure of additional accounts;
Termination of account, with no chance to re-enrolling in the program for 1 year at minimum.
All disciplinary actions are subject to an appeal. See the Appeals and Re-Admission Policies on Page 37-38 of the University Catalog.
If your attempt to sign up is being flagged but you are sure there is no other account created, this is likely because your information may be similar to an existing user. Submit a ticket to Student Support and the team will investigate further.
