IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR DISQUALIFIED STUDENTS

 

SDSU does readmit disqualified students.  It is important that you use the time away from
SDSU to identify the problems that caused your poor academic work and to work on
solutions.  Be prepared to question your choice of major and to set manageable goals for

yourself. You can also continue to make progress toward your academic goals by taking

the following steps

 

• Print an unofficial SDSU transcript and degree evaluation from your WEB PORTAL. Read them carefully and take them to all advising sessions

 

• See an SDSU adviser or your Assistant Dean immediately for individual academic advice. Visit the adviser for your major or future major so that you clearly understand the requirements you must meet to enter the upper division major. Obtain all advice IN WRITING and save it along with your other paperwork.

 

• Sign up for courses at a community college. Take NEW courses that will complete General Education requirements and/or preparation for your major. Demonstrate that you are working on strengthening your academic record by earning A or B grades. Grades of C or below do not send a positive message to the university or to you. DO NOT REPEAT FAILED SDSU COURSES AT ANOTHER SCHOOL UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN THAT ADVICE IN WRITING BY AN SDSU ADVISER.

 

• Complete any missing ELM or EPT requirements.

 

• File an application for readmission by the published deadlines.

 

• If you have not been readmitted to SDSU after the year waiting period, you can use SDSU Open University to repeat courses you failed during your enrollment at SDSU. File the official course forgiveness form by the last day of the semester’s add/drop period. Remember, only 24 units of Open University courses can be used toward the baccalaureate degree. Use your Open University enrollment wisely and earn the highest possible grades.
