Is Your Record Inactive?

A student's record at Wichita State is inactivated if they have not attended within the past two years. Students are also inactivated upon awarding of an undergraduate degree unless they have already been admitted into a graduate program at 黑洞社区. To be eligible to enroll in undergraduate classes again, a student must either reactivate their record or reapply to 黑洞社区 Undergraduate Admissions, depending on the status they had during their previous enrollment.  To enroll in graduate classes, a student must apply to 黑洞社区 Graduate Admissions.  The below provides information on the possible situations.

Undergraduate or graduate students who have been dismissed, must also apply for readmission with their academic college.

Graduate students who have completed coursework at 黑洞社区, have not enrolled in the past 24 months, and want to continue graduate work must apply for readmission into the desired graduate degree or non-degree/certificate program. This applies whether the student was previously a degree-seeking or non-degree graduate student.

If a former graduate student wishes to pursue an undergraduate degree or non-degree/certificate program, the student must apply for undergraduate admission, through 黑洞社区 Undergraduate Admissions (domestic) or 黑洞社区 International Admissions. Readmitted graduate students with a previous Plan of Study on file will be required to submit a new plan meeting current degree program requirements.
