Reinstatement

There are two types of a petition for reinstatement: “Reinstatement after Disqualification” (only for students who have not been enrolled for two or more semesters) and “Readmission after Dismissal”. The petitioning process for both requires that students submit a written statement addressing the following: problems that lead to disqualification/dismissal; describe specific changes made to resolve these problems; reason for choosing the intended major.
