Academics
Readmission of Academically Ineligible Students
A student who was excluded from the law school because of poor academic performance may petition for readmission and may be readmitted on a satisfactory showing that he or she (1) is capable of performing academically at the level required for graduation, (2) has identified the problems that led to his or her exclusion, and (3) has taken sufficient steps to prevent those or similar problems from interfering with his or her performance in subsequent semesters.
No first-year student who has become academically ineligible at the end of the spring term shall be readmitted for the summer term.
A student who has been excluded once may be readmitted by the vote of the law faculty or a student-faculty committee. A student who has been excluded more than once may be readmitted only by a vote of the faculty.
Readmission may be granted upon such terms and conditions as the faculty in its discretion shall deem appropriate. However, a student who is readmitted following academic exclusion shall resume his or her studies on academic probation for the grading period for which readmission is granted.
