Students Required to Withdraw after September 2008
Students who have been REQUIRED TO WITHDRAW (RTW) from a Ryerson program may not continue their program studies and are not be eligible for reinstatement in their program for 12 months.
Reinstatement will be considered by faculty/program committees based on criteria, assessments and/or procedures developed by the School or Department. Past academic performance and space availability will normally be considerations. Students who are reinstated to their program will be placed on PROBATION and will be required to have a Probationary Contract authorized by their program School or Department prior to commencing studies.
Students may also participate in the Student Success Program (SSP/Fresh Start Program) to assist in their pursuit of reinstatement. Details on this program may be found at www.ryerson.ca/currentstudents/academics/reinstate.
No courses taken at Ryerson (or elsewhere), within a 12 month period between when a student is RTW and reinstatement/transfer to another program is granted, will be eligible for Ryerson credit, except courses completed through the SSP/Fresh Start Program.
Students seeking reinstatement within 24 months of their RTW date, and who have not participated in the SSP/Fresh Start Program, must follow the reinstatement application instructions available at www.ryerson.ca/currentstudents/academics/reinstate.
Students seeking reinstatement after 24 months has elapsed from their RTW date must apply for reinstatement using a Ryerson online application available at www.ryerson.ca/undergraduate/admission/apply/forms. Applications will be considered subject to past academic performance, space availability and competition, as well as admission deadline dates and procedures determined by Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment.
