Re-enrolling at Penn College
A former student of Pennsylvania College of Technology, Williamsport Area Community College, or Williamsport Technical Institute who wishes to re-enroll must apply for re-admission through the Admissions Office. The following restrictions apply:
- A student who re-enrolls in the same major in which he/she was last
enrolled and re-enrolls within two years of the last date he/she attended
the College is allowed to meet graduation requirements that were in effect at
the time the student was originally enrolled.
- A student who re-enrolls in the same major in which he/she was last
enrolled and re-enrolls more than two years after he/she last attended
the College must meet the most current graduation requirements and pay a
nonrefundable application fee. All course work previously completed will be
reviewed on a course-by-course basis to determine whether it meets current
graduation requirements. All courses completed will remain on the student’s
transcript. Only credits for courses that meet the current requirements will be
used in calculating the student’s graduation grade-point average.
- A student who re-enrolls in a different major than the one in which
he/she was last enrolled is subject to a course-by-course evaluation to
determine whether the completed course work meets the requirements of the new
major. Only credits for courses that meet the requirements of the current major
will be used in calculating the student’s graduation grade-point average.
However, all courses completed will remain on the student’s transcript. A
student re-enrolling in a new major is required to meet the graduation
requirements in effect at the time of re-enrollment.
- A student who re-enrolls more than three years after leaving the institution or wishes to enroll in a major where the math, English, and reading requirements are significantly different from the earlier major will be required to take placement tests to assure readiness for reentry.
Re-admission into competitive or limited-enrollment majors is dependent upon space available.
Special circumstances may be appealed to the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost or his/her designee.
More information, including an Application for Re-admission (PDF), is available on the Admissions Web site.
