Students who have attended other colleges and/or universities since last registering at Georgia State must have official transcripts of all coursework taken sent to the Graduate Office, College of Arts and Sciences, prior to the reentry deadline for the appropriate semester.  

Degree programs must approve all reentry applications and may deny reentry because of a student's previous academic performance or progress in the program, or the length of time not enrolled.

Reentering students are subject to the regulations of the Graduate Bulletin and the degree program current at the time of reentry. Any special cases or exceptions to the reentry policy must be approved by the college Petitions Board and require submission of a Petition for Deviation.
