Petition to the Committee on Academic Standing
for Matriculated UndergraduateStudents
All applicants for readmission are required to pay a $40 non-refundable application fee. Readmission to the University is not guaranteed.Your application will be carefully considered and you will be informed of the decision as soon as ALL materials are received and reviewed.
The Committee on Academic Standing only reviews petitions during the fall and spring semesters.
If you were academically dismissed from the University or if your cumulative grade point average at the time of your withdrawal was less than 2.00, you are required, by University policy, to petition the Committee on Academic Standing for readmission consideration. Please be aware that the Committee does not follow its regular meeting schedule in the summer or winter months; timeliness, therefore, is of particular importance. See below for other documentation you may need to submit.
