Readmission policies and procedures

The deadline to apply for readmission for the fall semester is August 1; the deadline to apply for readmission for the spring semester is December 1. Because it is not in the Â鶹´«Ã½â€™s best interest, readmission is generally not granted for summer I or II sessions.

For Â鶹´«Ã½s in good academic standing

Students who enroll at Â鶹´«Ã½ but do not return the following term will have one year's valid admission status in which to re-enroll, provided they:

1. Left in good standing.
2. Have not attended another college since leaving WMU- if the Â鶹´«Ã½ has subsequently taken additional college work, they must complete the WMU readmission application and have official transcripts sent to the WMU Office of Admissions from each institution attended.

For Â鶹´«Ã½s who have been academically dismissed

Students on probation or extended probation who fail to achieve at least a 2.00 grade point average for the enrollment period, or Â鶹´«Ã½s on final probation who fail to achieve a 2.00 overall GPA, will be dismissed from Â鶹´«Ã½. Academic standing policies are available from the Registrar's Office.

Applying for readmission

To be considered for readmission

Complete the steps below by August 1 for Fall semester and December 1 for Spring semester:

1. Schedule an appointment with your College of Arts and Sciences advisor here to discuss the process and determine eligibility.
2. Complete the WMU readmission application.
3. Submit official transcripts from any other institutions that you have attended since you were dismissed from WMU to Office of Admissions: 1903 W Michigan Ave, Kalamazoo MI 49008-5211.

Academic forgiveness

Students who last attended WMU four or more years ago may apply for academic forgiveness. For more information, contact the Registrar's Office.

The decision to readmit is determined by the College of Arts and Sciences readmission committee or Director of Advising. Petitioning for readmission does not guarantee automatic readmission to the University.
