Re-enrollment Application
If you left in good standing, and did not withdraw from your last semester of attendance, you must apply for readmission. Although there are no deadlines for readmission, you are encouraged to apply as early as possible in order to take advantage of early registration and academic advising. Readmission applications require approximately 10 days for processing.

Students applying for readmission will be readmitted into the major that they were in during their last semester of enrollment. Students requesting readmission into a different major must change their major and provide the Office of Undergraduate Admissions with verification of the new major change approved by their college advisor.

Reinstatement Application
If you were academically dismissed at the conclusion of your last semester of attendance, you must apply for REINSTATEMENT. You may apply for reinstatement immediately following a dismissal or for any subsequent semester. Reinstatement applications require 4-6 weeks for processing. All applications for reinstatement are subject to review by a Faculty Petition Board. This is done by submitting an application for reinstatement which includes a written statement explaining the circumstances leading to your dismissal and a proposed plan to remedy past difficulties. Additional information such as medical documentation, letters of reference and recommendations, etc., may be submitted to further explain the circumstances. If you attended any other college or university since your last enrollment at the University of Maryland, College Park, official transcripts are required before your application can be reviewed.
