READMISSION REQUIREMENTS FOR FORMER STUDENTS
Readmission School/College Specific Policy
College of Arts & Media
All CAM students who have not registered and attended classes on the Denver Campus for one year or longer must reapply for admission to the Office of Admissions. Former music majors must also apply to the Department of Music & Entertainment Industry Studies. Students must be in good academic standing to be eligible to gain readmission to the music major. Contact CAMadvising@ucdenver.edu for more details.
Due to the dynamic nature of CAM programs, returning students who have not attended in more than five years must complete their programs based on the current curriculum and policies.
Business School
For students newly admitted to the Business School and former business students readmitted to the school after an absence of three semesters, applicable credits up to five years old will be counted toward business degree requirements. Courses more than five years old will be evaluated individually for their current relevance to the degree program. Students may be required to update their knowledge by taking additional courses when past courses are outdated. Generally, business courses more than 8 years old will not apply toward degree credit.
A University of Colorado student from another campus, or a Denver campus student who has not registered for three consecutive semesters (summers included), is considered a former student and must reapply for admission. Former Denver campus business degree students will be automatically readmitted to the school for up to three years from the semester they last attended if they are in good standing (not on probation or suspension) in the school. Students who have not attended for more than three years, or who have completed the equivalent of 12 or more semester hours at another institution of higher education, must meet the admission and degree requirements applicable at the time they reapply.
Students Returning Who Are in Good Standing
CU Denver students who have not registered and attended classes on the Denver Campus for one year or longer and who have not attended another institution since the University of Colorado are considered returning students and must formally apply for readmission. An additional application fee is only required if changing from undergraduate to graduate or non-degree to degree status or if a degree was earned and the student is applying for a second degree. Students applying for readmission may complete an online application (preferred) or download an application form at www.ucdenver.edu/admissions. If applying online and a fee is not required, students should indicate “pay by check” when prompted for application fee payment. The fee requirement is then removed during application processing. A paper application may also be requested by calling 303-556-2704 or by e-mail at admissions@ucdenver.edu.
Students Returning Who Are Not in Good Academic Standing
Students on Suspension
During the one-year academic suspension period, students who wish to return to the university should consider one (or both) of the following actions:
- Attend another regionally-accredited college/university.
- Students who choose to attend another institution while on academic suspension can take as many or as few credits as they choose, but must earn a 2.75 cumulative GPA in all transferable course work.
- Students should consult their academic advisor to discuss appropriate course work.
Student should use the time off to directly address and resolve the factors that contributed to the academic difficulty.
After the one-year suspension period has elapsed, students must petition the appellate committee (of the school or college they wish to enter) for readmission and meet and document at least one of the following criteria:
- Attendance at another regionally accredited college/university where they earned a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.75 in transferable credit.
- Explanation of their previous academic difficulty, demonstration of what has changed and how this will allow them to now achieve and maintain good academic standing (including a semester GPA of at least 2.3 and a cumulative GPA of at least a 2.0).
Students who choose to petition their college’s appellate committee for re-admission must submit their petitions by the following deadlines:
- For fall admission: June 1
- For spring admission: December 1
- For Maymester/summer admission: April 1
If a student is granted readmission and his/her CU GPA is below a 2.0, s/he will be re-admitted on restricted academic probation. These students must meet the condition of restricted academic probation every semester until their cumulative CU GPA is at least a 2.0.
Students Who Have Attended another College or Institution
Students who have attended another college or university since last attending the University of Colorado must apply as transfer students and meet the admission criteria and transfer student deadlines for receipt of documents. This requires payment of the $50 (subject to change) nonrefundable application fee and submission of one official transcript from each college or university attended since last enrollment at CU Denver. Transcripts must be sent directly from the issuing institution to:
