Appeals
Suspension Information
Any student who has been suspended for one calendar year or has been suspended for three calendar years and has completed one year of the suspension period may file a written appeal and appear before the Readmissions Committee. The written appeal must be submitted no later than 5 days before the start date of classes. This deadline applies for the semester that readmission is sought. The Readmissions Committee usually meets on Mondays before classes begin in the Summer, Fall, and Spring semesters.
Once the appeal is filed, the student will appear before the Readmissions Committee for the appeal hearing. Students will be notified via email of the hearing time and place.
