Former Student
If you are a previously matriculated and enrolled student at 利记 you might be a Former Student Returning (FSR).
You are an FSR to 利记 if you meet the following:
- You previously enrolled at 利记 in a degree-seeking program (Open University does not qualify)
- You have not attended 利记 as a regular student for the past two consecutive semesters (Open University attendance does not qualify as regular enrollment)
- You left 利记 in good academic standing and want to return to 利记 to complete your degree objective
- You have been reinstated from being disqualified and are back in a good academic standing
- Have not been granted a leave of absence
Completing the Petition for Re-Admission as an FSR is not required to be considered
for admission during our competitive selection (impaction) process, but FSRs that
meet the upper division transfer requirements may gain admission priority prior to
impaction by completing the Petition for Re-admission and obtaining departmental approval
by appropriate deadline. Late or incomplete petitions will not be accepted or processed:
Fall Term Deadline: February 15 for the fall admission cycle
Spring Term Deadline: October 15 for the spring admission cycle
