If students who have voluntarily withdrawn or were dismissed from the University wish to return, they must file the Application for Undergraduate Readmission form with the Dean of the school or college in which they were formerly enrolled. The student is requested to supply information, indicate any course taken since leaving Temple, and to have available a copy of an official transcript from each institution attended. Consideration for readmission as a result of academic dismissal should be based on the quality of the student's previous records and the student's potential to succeed in the coming semester. At least one semester must elapse between academic dismissal and readmission. Both the academic adviser and the student have the right to request an interview as part of the readmission procedure.
Some academic units require that students applying for readmission be interviewed.

Repeating a Course Students may wish to repeat a course in order to earn a higher grade, either to raise their grade point average or to receive a grade required by their major or other requirement, such as achieving the minimum C- required for successful completion of Core curriculum courses. The decision to repeat a course for a higher grade must be made in consultation with an adviser, and a request form must be filed with the Dean's Office and submitted to the Office of Student Academic Records. If an undergraduate student takes a course more than once, all occurrences of the course will appear on the student's transcript. Only the highest grade received will be used in calculating the student's grade point average.
