Procedure for Re-Entry

  1. Complete an “Application for Re-Entry after Dismissal: Graduate Program” form, providing supporting documentation as needed. The form is submitted to the Admissions office. The re-entry application should include:
    • Personal statement highlighting any extenuating circumstances leading to the dismissal, behavioral changes that will contribute to goals for success, etc.
    • Contact information such as address, home telephone and cell phone numbers, and email address.
    • Official transcripts of academic performance since exit from the College.
  2. The application for re-entry is reviewed by an Enrollment Review Workgroup and all applicants will be interviewed by the Enrollment Review Workgroup.
  3. The student will be notified of the Workgroup’s decision by the appropriate Dean or Program Director. All decisions are final. The Workgroup will decide one of two options:
    • Accept re-entry application
    • Deny re-entry application
    • Defer re-entry application decision
  4. If the Enrollment Review Workgroup denies re-entry, the student’s opportunities for readmission are exhausted.
  5. If the Enrollment Review Workgroup accepts re-entry, the student will be admitted with the probationary requirement that all program course work must be completed at Bellin College and the failure to meet a passing grade of AB (OMPT Fellowship) or C (DSc) in any course would result in permanent dismissal from the College.
  6. Applicants who are re-admitted will have a plan of study developed according to current policies, procedures, and timelines. It is the responsibility of the applicant to meet with the DSc Program Director to discuss the plan of study. Failure to meet this requirement will result in automatic denial of the re-entry application.
  7. The date of re-entry is determined by the Workgroup based on classroom and lab resources. Students will be bound by the qualifications of The Bellin College Post-Professional Physical Therapy Guide – Handbook & Catalog in effect at time of re-entry.
