Readmission to the University

Applying for Readmission

1. Students absent from the University for a regular semester or longer without approved leave must reapply. (For information about an approved undergraduate leave of absence, see the Leaving the University policies.)
2. Students who have attended other institutions and all international students (non-immigrants), should contact the Office of Admissions & New Student Enrollment to reapply.
3. Students who have attended other institutions since last attendance at the University must submit official transcripts of all courses completed prior to review of the readmission application. Transcripts should be sent to the Office of Admissions & New Student Enrollment.
4. Students planning to enroll in a new college must obtain written approval from the dean of that college prior to readmission.
5. Students who have previously attended the University in a non-degree status must apply for regular admission if intending to enter a degree program. Application should be made through the Office of Admissions & New Student Enrollment.

NOTE: Students who withdraw from the University for more than two consecutive regular semesters (Fall, Spring) must meet degree requirements as outlined in the Catalog in effect at their re-enrollment or during their registration.

Readmission Requirements

1. Students seeking readmission who were not on academic probation or under disqualification upon departure from the University are eligible to return upon application for readmission, if less than 12 college-level units have been attempted at other post-secondary institutions.
2. Students who have attempted 12 or more college-level units at other post-secondary institutions must submit an official transcript of all course work. A minimum cumulative grade-point-average (GPA) of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale is required for course work completed at other institutions. Otherwise, students must obtain written permission to re-enroll from the dean of the college in which they plan to enroll. The Office of Admissions and New Student Enrollment will process the application for readmission according to the written recommendation of the dean.
3. Students seeking readmission who left the University on academic probation or under disqualification must receive approval from the dean of the college they wish to enter prior to readmission.
