Readmission
After Suspension. Students suspended for the first time will
be accepted for readmission after one regular semester away from the
University. The summer
session may not count as a term of suspension. A student asking for readmission
after a second or third suspension should follow the procedure listed
below AFTER being away from the University for one calendar year for a
second suspension and two calendar years for a third suspension:
- Apply for readmission through the Office of Admissions no later than 10 days prior to the beginning
of the semester. International students need to apply six weeks before the
beginning of the semester.
- Student must personally explain to the Dean (or his/her designee) of his or her college
the reasons for seeking readmission.
- Student must complete the "Readmission after Suspension" application.
- Student must provide any supporting documents or current academic transcripts to accompany
the readmission application.
- The readmission application and dean's recommendation will be considered by the University
Admissions and Credits Committee.
- Student will need to contact the Office of Admissions to see if readmission was granted
and the terms of readmission.
Appeal. A
student may appeal the suspension by completing the "Readmission after
Suspension" application process prior to the term she/he might ordinarily
be readmitted after the suspension is completed. The form may be filed at any
time after the suspension occurs but must be filed at least 10 days prior to
the beginning of the next term for which the student wishes to enroll. During
the appeal process, most of the suspensions are upheld with exceptions being
made only when rare extenuating circumstances existed. The Admissions and Credits
Committee will usually require the student to wait one intervening semester
before he or she can be readmitted.
A student suspended
for a second time must remain out of school for one calendar year.
A student suspended for a a third time must remain our of school for
2 calendar years. After the student has been suspended, the above procedures
for readmission will apply. An exception may be made for the student who
completes an Associate of Arts or Science degree in a university parallel
curriculum at a community college in the interim.
