Readmission Process
A student who wants to return to Earlham following an academic suspension should request an application for Readmission from the Office of Student Development. Applications should be submitted one month prior to the semester for which the student wants to re-enroll, but the period between suspension and readmission must be one semester and one summer.
A student must submit a written evaluation of his/her time away. In the evaluation, the student must demonstrate a strong commitment to improving his/her past academic record. In addition, a student who has been suspended and wishes to apply for readmission must meet the criteria found in his/her letter of Suspension from the College. The criteria normally includes successfully taking courses elsewhere and/or receiving counseling/study skills for an extended period of time.
A suspended student who is readmitted is placed
on Final Probation. Financial aid may be reinstated upon the student's
readmission to the College. For one semester after readmission,
students are considered to be making satisfactory progress for
aid purposes, although they may initially be below the minimum
expectations described at Satisfactory
Academic Progress for Financial Aid Eligibility. |
