Academic Reinstatement

Academic reinstatement

Students who have been dismissed from any Indiana University campus are not eligible to enroll in courses through IU Indianapolis University College until they have been reinstated. Students can petition for reinstatement, which involves detailing how they aim to successfully complete academic work upon reinstatement to IU Indianapolis. Students who are reinstated will be classified as students in review until they have maintained and met all requirements to be removed from review; requirements may include GPA minimums, credit loads, and deadlines for registering for classes. For more details on reinstatement to University College, review the full policy.
