Students who were placed in Unsatisfactory Standing due to a failure in student teaching/Field Experience cannot apply for readmission for at least one full year and are advised to apply for Fall readmission by April 15. Appeals for readmission due to failure in a field experience are heard by the Faculty of Education Student Affairs Committee.

Students who were previously in Unsatisfactory Standing and who were readmitted to the Faculty by the Director, Internships and Student Affairs or the Student Affairs Committee will have their Standing changed to Readmitted Unsatisfactory Standing. Their course load is specified at the time of readmission, as are the conditions they must meet to be allowed to continue in their program. They should see their departmental advisor to discuss their course selection.

• Must clear Ks, Ls, or Supplementals
• To Be Determined
• Incomplete

Students with Incomplete Standings in the Winter or Summer term may register for the Fall term, but their Standing must be resolved by the end of the Course Change period for that term. Students whose Incomplete Standing changes to Satisfactory, Probationary, or Interim Unsatisfactory Standing may continue in the program. Students whose Standing changes to Unsatisfactory may not continue in their program.

Students whose Standing changes to Unsatisfactory and who wish to ask for permission to continue in their program must make a request to the Director, Internships and Student Affairs as soon as they are placed in Unsatisfactory Standing. Readmission will be considered only when proof of extenuating circumstances that affected academic performance can be provided (e.g., medical or other documentation). Additional conditions may apply.

Students whose Standing is still Incomplete by the end of the Course Change period should immediately consult with the Internships and Student Affairs Office.
