Readmission
to UCF is becoming more and more of a privilege.
Due to UCF’s large number of students and the caliber
of incoming students being admitted, UCF no longer needs
readmission cases to bolsters it’s student body. It is because of this that each readmission
case should be considered carefully.
CECS readmission policies (in addition to University standards)
All
readmission cases in the College of Engineering and Computer
Science will be required to provide the following information
before they will be completed:
- Departmental
support in the form of a letter detailing any restriction
and courses that the student is advised to take for the
first two semesters following readmission
- Readmission
form with students information and course load signed
by student and advisor
- All
paperwork required by the UCF Registrar’s office
Additional
requirements may be required as noted below for the following
levels of suspension.
Disqualification
Students
disqualified from CECS that are encouraged to continue
meeting their degree requirements at another institution
during the period that they are suspended form UCF.
This will give students an opportunity to continue
working toward their degree requirements and show positive
academic progress. The following guidelines should be used when considering a student
for readmission:
- Students
that have made excellent progress toward their degree
requirements may be considered for the possibility of
early readmission (by one semester)
- Students
that have not made significant progress toward their degree
requirements should be required to sit out the normal
two semesters and should be encouraged to receive an AA
degree from a Florida Community College if appropriate
to the students case
CECS
will normally only accept early readmits from disqualified
students that have sat out for at least one semester. Exceptions to this will be considered for students that meet the
following criteria and are approved by their department
and Dr. Nayfeh:
- Students
are very close to graduation and are no more than 10 quality
points down
- International
students on a case by case basis
- Students
that have strong departmental support and special circumstances
Exclusion
Exclusion
cases require that a student sit out for a minimum of
one year (3 semesters) before being eligible to file for
readmission. Excluded students should not be encouraged
to continue taking coursework at another institution unless
they have solved the problems that caused them to be excluded.
In many cases students will continue taking courses
even if they are still having the same problems that caused
them to fall in to poor academic standing.
For students that been excluded a period of time
away from academics may be warranted.
