Admission Appeals for Undergraduate Students

 

 

All applications for admission are reviewed in accordance with CSU admission minimum requirements. Denials of admission are made after a review of academic qualifications.

An appeal process is available to students who believe they meet admission requirements or have extenuating circumstances of why they did not meet the minimum requirements.  Appeals must be submitted within 15 business days of the date on the denied admission notification.

Complete appeals will be reviewed by a committee and a decision may take up to 3-4 weeks.  Incomplete appeals will not be considered. Only one appeal may be submitted for an academic term.

If you have applied and would like to appeal the decision follow the instructions provided on our forms page.

 

ADMISSIONS APPEALS FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES

All students must be able to meet the academic, accreditation and technical standards required for admission or participation in their chosen program of study. Students with disabilities, therefore, are not excused from course prerequisites, GPA requirements or degree requirements. However, in some limited circumstances, substitution of course requirements based on a documented disability may be appropriate.

Such substitutions are granted only when it is clear that the student’s disability makes completion of the requirement(s) impossible and when the course in question is not a fundamental element of the curriculum. A course substitution means that the credit hours for the course are met through an alternate course. A course substitution may not alter or reduce the number of credits needed for degree completion or create a fundamental alteration in the program of study.

In these cases, you will be required to complete a form from the Services for Students with Disabilities Office first before appealing.
