Any undergraduate student whose enrollment at this university is interrupted for any reason so that the student has not been enrolled for three consecutive semesters, including the summer sessions, who was recessed or dismissed from the university, who was not allowed to continue in their major, or who has completed prior courses of study, should submit a readmission application to the Office of the Registrar via the web at www.reg.msu.edu at least one month prior to the beginning of the semester in which the student intends to resume studies. International students should submit their application at least four months prior to the beginning of the semester in which the student intends to resume studies. Readmission is only available for spring and fall semesters for international students.
Students applying for readmission after academic recess or dismissal should refer to the section on Readmission After Academic Recess or Dismissal.
Michigan State University is committed to supporting students who serve in the uniformed services. In compliance with federal regulations (Title 34 668.18), the university will not deny any student readmission based on past, present, or future service in the uniformed services. Students who are called to active duty for more than 30 consecutive days are entitled to prompt readmission upon their return, with the same academic status they held at the time of their departure. This includes reinstatement to the same program (or the most similar available), enrollment status, academic standing, and previously earned credits.
