READMISSION TO LINFIELD UNIVERSITY
An Online and Continuing Education (OCE) student must apply for readmission if they want to return to Linfield after being away from the university for two years or more. A readmitted student is responsible for consulting their academic department regarding changes to the curriculum and also must meet the most recently approved requirements for any program that is accredited or licensed. The student must meet the degree or certificate completion requirements from an eligible catalog which has not expired at the time of the student’s degree or certificate completion. When degree, major and/or minor requirements have changed, the major department has the right to specify the catalog year(s) available to the student. A returning student who is requesting readmission to Linfield but to a new program with specific entrance requirements is not guaranteed admission to that program.
The application for readmission includes:
- A Readmission of a Former Student Application form available online at https://apply.linfield.edu/register/returningapp
- Submission of official transcripts from all colleges and universities attended after leaving Linfield University.
- A returning student who left the university after being suspended must appeal their academic standing in addition to completing the readmission application. See policy on Academic Suspension Appeals.
While the university typically reviews all applications for returning students, it is recommended that students complete the readmission application by the priority application deadlines:
| Term | Date |
|---|---|
| Fall | August 1 |
| January | December 1 |
| Spring | January 10 |
| Summer | June 1 |
RIGHT TO RESCIND ADMISSION POLICY
A disciplinary matter or criminal conviction, whether occurring prior to the time of application, while the application is under review, or after the admission decision has been made, may affect the University’s decisions regarding admission, enrollment, or course of study. Linfield University reserves the right to rescind admission or enrollment in such circumstances. In addition, because offers of admission and enrollment are based upon a record of academic achievement, Linfield reserves the right to rescind admission or enrollment upon receipt of a final high school transcript or most recent college transcript reflecting a significant decline in academic performance or showing that specific program prerequisites have not been met. Finally, if an application misrepresents any information, for any reason, admission or enrollment may be rescinded at the University’s discretion.
