Rationale

St. Cloud State University is committed to supporting student success. There are many reasons why a student may stop attending courses prior to completing the requirements to earn a degree. Advising and orientation are a vital part of a student’s initial transition to college. Equally valuable is the establishment and provision of consistent orientation and advising services for students returning to SCSU following a prolonged break in enrollment.

Policy

St. Cloud State University considers absence from enrollment for three (3) or more consecutive terms, not including summer, to represent a prolonged break in enrollment. Undergraduate students returning to the University after an absence of three (3) or more consecutive terms must successfully complete a reentry orientation process prior to registering for classes.

Procedure

The Registrar will place a registration hold on a regularly admitted undergraduate student’s record after three (3) consecutive terms, not including summer, with no registration activity.
When a student with this hold attempts to register for classes or contacts a University faculty or staff member and indicates intent to re-enter, the student will be directed to complete a Readmission Orientation Module.
Upon completion of Readmission Orientation, Advising Center staff will remove the hold and engage the returning student to assess needs and provide resources for a successful return to the University.
