Readmission to Master’s Programs
Students who have previously enrolled in a master's program at the Inter American University, but who have not completed their course requirements and who have not attended classes for at least one academic year, must apply for readmission through the Office of the Registrar of the campus to which they desire to continue their studies. Every application for readmission must be received during the dates established for the enrollment process for the term in which students wish to resume their studies. An official transcript of any work taken while students were not enrolled at Inter American University should be submitted. Before being readmitted, students must receive an academic evaluation and counseling by the corresponding program.
Readmitted students will be governed by the Graduate Catalog and other norms and regulations in effect at the time of their readmission.
Readmission to the University of Veteran and Military Students
When a master's defree student with veteran or military status has discontinued their studies for one academic year or more, they must request readmission at the Registrar's Office of the academic unit to which they are interested in being readmitted. Pursuant to regulations 34 CFR 668.18 (a) (e) and (g), the student will be readmitted with the same academic status as when he or she was last enrolled or admitted to the university. These requirements apply to any student who is unable to attend college due to military service.
The readmission process will entail the application of the institutional guidelines established by the University. The Registrar's Office, after analyzing the official documents, will determine the student's eligibility for readmission, using the admission standards established by the Inter-American University of Puerto Rico and the study program of interest. The request must be made on the established dates. Exceptions will be considered individually by the Dean of Academic Affairs.
Students who have subsequently passed courses at other higher education institutions must submit an official transcript of the credits taken at these institutions. This evidence will be submitted to the Admissions Office for evaluation and possible validation of courses, as well as to the Financial Aid Office for the evaluation of federal, state and institutional aid.
For all other academic or administrative processes, the student will be governed by the stipulations of the Graduate Catalog in force at the time of readmission.
