To prepare for readmission, please review all the steps below. Do not submit your readmission application until you have reviewed this checklist and completed all requirements.
It is your responsibility to understand what is required for you to be considered for readmission to your program.
If you have returned to Purdue West Lafayette within the last 12 months after being away for five years or more, check to see if you qualify for academic renewal.
Meet Readmission Application Deadlines
Purdue has firm application deadlines for readmission. For your application to be considered complete, all required materials must be received by the deadline. For full consideration, provide official transcripts of college coursework completed since separating from Purdue.
Resolve Holds (if applicable)
If you have holds on your Purdue account, you must clear them before the application deadline for the term you want to return to Purdue. If holds are not cleared, your application will not be considered. If you no longer have access to myPurdue, you may contact the Office of Admissions to request assistance.
Prepare Readmission Statement
Your application will include a readmission statement. Your statement must include responses to each of the questions below:
- What factors contributed to your academic separation status at Purdue? Do a thorough self-examination about what went wrong for you and explain it to the committee.
- What will you do differently to assure academic success if you are readmitted? Identify concrete things you will do differently to be academically successful.
- What school and major do you want to be readmitted into and why? The committee wants to know that you have thoroughly explored your options and understand how you settled on the major you are choosing.
- What insights have you gained about yourself as a result of being academically separated? The committee is interested in getting some indication of how you have grown personally.
Apply
To apply for readmission, you must complete the following by the deadline:
- Resolve holds.
