All students whose regular enrollment in the college ceases for any reason must file application for readmission if they wish to enroll again, unless they have been afforded student-on-leave status. Readmission is not automatic and is necessary for all terms including summer school. Readmission to summer school does not automatically apply to the following fall term. An application form for readmission should be obtained from and filed with the registrar’s office according to the following schedule:
| Semester | Date |
|---|---|
| For Fall term | July 1 |
| For January term | November 1 |
| For Spring term | December 15 |
| For Summer term | April 15 |
A student applying for readmission following an absence related to personal, academic, or financial reasons must submit an application, which will be reviewed by the Committee on Academic Policies. Applications must be accompanied by a personal statement addressing the reason for the absence from Randolph-Macon, the reason for returning, and the student’s preparedness for success. In cases where students have been separated for academic deficiency, the Committee on Academic Policies prefers to see evidence of successful completion (no grade below a C-) of off-campus coursework during the suspension period.
A student applying for readmission following a conduct suspension must submit an application, which will be reviewed by the College’s Conduct Officer. All sanctions related to the conduct suspension must be satisfied prior to readmission.
A student applying for readmission following a medical withdrawal must submit an application, which will be reviewed by the Director of Student Health Services and the Director of Counseling Services. Applications must be accompanied by medical documentation supporting the student’s return to campus.
No student with pending financial obligations to the College may be reviewed for readmission.
Readmission on Probation
Students who have been separated for academic deficiency and who are subsequently readmitted shall be readmitted on probation. Students who are on academic probation at the time of their withdrawal from the college and who are subsequently readmitted shall be readmitted on probation. (See Probationary Regulations.)
In the case of any student who is readmitted on probation, the Committee on Academic Policies shall have authority, at its discretion, to determine all or part of that student’s academic program for the first full fall or spring term following readmission.
