The Committee will decide each case on its individual merits with special regard to the student's written appeal, the productive use of the three or more intervening years, evidence of motivation and achievement based on any academic work done during those three or more years, and a supporting letter from the department offering the curriculum into which the student requests admission. This letter must contain a proposed plan of study agreed to and signed by the student, the department head, and the dean. If the curriculum into which the student requests admission is different from that in which the student was last enrolled, the petition to the Admissions Committee must also be accompanied by a Curriculum Change Form ( See Appendix W) approved by the accepting dean.
If a contractual readmission is approved, the following conditions will apply:
1. The student's entire academic record at NC State will be recorded on any subsequent transcript, including a grade point average on all work attempted at NC State.
2. For courses attempted prior to readmission, only work of C- or better will count toward fulfilling graduation requirements, providing that such courses meet current curriculum requirements
3. For purposes of suspension and eligibility for graduation, a second grade point average will be calculated based only on courses that are attempted after readmission. Total hours for graduation and suspension will be based on all work at NC State after readmission plus former work of C- or better that is acceptable to the department plus hours transferred from other institutions.
4. The student must maintain an overall grade point average of 2.0 or better on all courses attempted after readmission.
5. Students who fail to achieve an overall grade point average of 2.0 will lose their contractual readmission status. Their status for subsequent work as a degree student at NC State shall be determined on the basis of total hours attempted at NC State plus transferred hours and their grade point average calculated using all courses attempted at NC State.
6. A student may be readmitted under this option only once.
Once a student has received notice of readmission, the student should register using telephonic registration. The student's personal ID number will be included in the notice of readmission.
