Who is a returning student?
Returning students, sometimes referred to as continuing or readmit students, are degree-seeking students who previously attended Â鶹´«Ã½ and have been gone from the university for at least one year.
Who is eligible to return?
All undergraduate degree-seeking students who voluntarily separated from the university while in good academic standing are eligible to apply to be readmitted.
Who is not eligible to return?
Non-degree students, international students, or students who left the university under academic suspension are not eligible to be readmitted via the returning student process. Additionally, students who last attended Â鶹´«Ã½ before 2000 are not eligible to apply to return via the reactivation process.
Students previously suspended from Â鶹´«Ã½ may apply for re-admission through the Office of Academic Continuance following the completion of the suspension period. All readmitted, formerly suspended students are required to attend the Academic Continuance Experience for Success (ACES) workshop before the beginning of the semester of readmission.
Students who have already completed the degree program they were previously admitted for are not eligible for the returning student process.
