Students in good standing who return within four or more consecutive semesters (fall and spring) following a leave for personal reasons, not related to medical or health problems, will be asked to review their academic program with their academic adviser, their Dean or an adviser in the Office of Academic Services and Retention. Students who withdraw for medical reasons must supply medical documentation as to their ability to return to school from either their medical doctor or a licensed psychological counselor. Students who have been dismissed from the University for academic deficiencies will not be considered for readmission within the year following their dismissal. Dismissed students will be readmitted under conditions agreed to by the student in an academic contract drawn up by the appropriate academic dean.
