Re-admission into the Department of Nursing
Students who withdraw from the department or college in good standing may request re-admission. The application first goes to the Registrar, who then consults with the chairperson of the Department of Nursing. Readmission depends on clinical space availability. If the student has been away for more than two years, they may be required to repeat courses.
Students who have left the department or college and are not in good standing at the time of departure are not guaranteed readmission to the college or to the Department. To gain re-admission to the college, students must meet with the Dean of Student and Academic Life, who will review the reasons for suspension or dismissal and will make a contract with them if they are re-admitted. To be considered for re-admission to the Department, if the student left due to academic or clinical difficulty, the student is required to write a letter which describes the reason for the problem, and what has been done to assure that the difficulty will not re-occur. This letter is considered by the Student Policies Committee, who recommends action to the Department Chairperson. The final decision rests with the Department Chairperson. Readmission depends on clinical space availability. If the student has been away for more than two years, they may be required to repeat courses. The academic standards of the Department are followed. No student will be readmitted if they have failed two or more nursing courses.
