Undergraduate Readmission Policy

 
Purpose

This policy applies to undergraduate students seeking readmission to the University of San Francisco (USF) to complete their degree program.

 
Policy

Students who were previously enrolled in a degree-seeking program at USF and who were withdrawn (officially or unofficially) or were academically disqualified must apply for readmission if they wish to return.

Students wishing to be readmitted to the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program must have been previously enrolled in the BSN program.

All financial holds must be cleared before the readmission application is processed. Students with financial holds for outstanding payments should contact the Office of Student Accounts at usf_balance@usfca.edu to determine the balance due.

If courses were taken at other institutions during the period of absence from USF, official transcripts from each college or university attended will be required for readmission consideration. Acceptance of any transfer credit will be determined by the academic dean in accordance with USF’s residency requirement.
