Dismissal/Reinstatement Clarification

After consultation with Dr. Amlaner, this is to clarify the policy for someone that has been dismissed from graduate study at KSU and wants to return.  Their options are:
1. Request to be reinstated to the specific program they were dismissed from.  In this case the procedure would be as proposed with the Academic Standing policy.
2. Apply fresh to a different program.  The new program would decide whether to admit them or not based on their own policies.  If admitted they would carry their previous graduate GPA with them, likely resulting in beginning the new program on Probation.

Please provide your feedback through this blog, as this is our opportunity to shape and write this policy as part of our proposed Academic Standing policy.
