READMISSION REQUIREMENTS

A Readmit student is a student who previously attended Western Kentucky University and has sat out for three or more semesters and now wishes to return.

READMIT STUDENTS WITHOUT TRANSFER CREDIT
Readmission students must have a minimum GPA of "C" (2.0 on 4.0 unweighted scale) for the last semester or term of full-time work, and have a cumulative GPA of "C" (2.0 on 4.0 unweighted scale). Fulfillment of minimum requirements does not guarantee admission.

READMIT STUDENTS WHO ATTEND ANOTHER SCHOOL
Readmission students with transfer work from other accredited colleges should request that official transcripts be mailed to the Office of Admissions from each college attended. An official transcript is typically sent from one institution to another in a sealed envelope for the receiving institution to open upon arrival . In order to provide more accurate information and better service to prospective transfer students, a General Education Transfer Report will be made available (usually within 10 working days) after they are admitted to the University. This is done to help ensure that all official transcripts are received and evaluated properly and that the transfer student is admitted to the University. You may also view your General Education Transfer Report along with any updated transfer information on-line at http://topnet.wku.edu.

Readmission students must have a minimum GPA of "C" (2.0 on 4.0 unweighted scale) for the last semester or term of full-time work, a cumulative GPA of "C" (2.0 on 4.0 unweighted scale) and be in good standing at the institution from which they are transferring. Fulfillment of minimum requirements does not guarantee admission. Applicants are not allowed to ignore previous college work.

Readmission students with fewer than 24 hours earned are required to have completed the pre-college curriculum.
