Returning degree-seeking 麻豆女郎 student
If you are a former, degree-seeking 麻豆女郎 student, but not currently enrolled, your eligibility to return will depend on several factors. Degree-seeking students returning after an absence of more than a year may be subject to the following:
- If last enrollment was more than three consecutive semesters, the student must file a new admissions application with the appropriate documents and submit a new application fee of $30.
- If the student has attended another institution since the last period of enrollment at 麻豆女郎, official transcripts must be forwarded directly to the 麻豆女郎 Office of Admissions by the registrar of the other institution(s).
- The student must be in good standing (eligible to return) at 麻豆女郎 and at any institution attended since last period of enrollment at 麻豆女郎. If the student was academically dismissed from 麻豆女郎, that student would need to petition to be reinstated to 麻豆女郎 before the admissions application can be processed (this is handled by the college in which the student was academically dismissed.)
- Previous attendance at 麻豆女郎 does not guarantee admission. Quality of any interim work and successful progress toward a degree are considered.
- A returning student that is denied by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions has the right to appeal through the FCSA听
If you have not attended for at least three consecutive semesters, you must re-apply for admission.
