Students are strongly urged to consider the readmission policy in formulating plans for leaving or returning to UCI. Every effort will be made to readmit UCI students who were in good academic standing at the time they ceased attending and who have filed readmission applications by the deadline. Former UCI students who wish to be readmitted should contact the undergraduate counseling office of the school or program which offers their intended major.
Readmission is subject to dean's approval and campus deadlines (August 1 for fall quarter, November 1 for winter quarter, and February 1 for spring quarter). To apply for readmission, a student must first pay a nonrefundable $40 Application Fee at the Cashier's Office, and then file the Application for Readmission with the Registrar's Office.
New undergraduate students who cancel registration prior to the first day of the quarter must reapply to UCI; they are not eligible to file for readmission as described above.
If a student has been academically disqualified from the University or has left the University while on probation or subject to disqualification, the student must apply for readmission. The application, however, is subject to the approval of the dean of the school which the student hopes to enter.
Transcripts for work taken at other institutions must be submitted as part of the application.
