Former Northwestern Students
Northwestern University students who are in good academic
standing but have not registered for one or more quarters
of an academic year must file an
Application for Former Students to Reenter. The application
must be filed at least six weeks before the first day of
registration
of the quarter of return. Northwestern University students
are not required to file an Application for Former Students
to Reenter if they registered during the spring quarter and
intend to return in the following fall quarter or if they
registered during the spring quarter and intend to return
during the Summer Session of the same year. A Northwestern
student who has been dismissed from the university may not
enroll as a Non-Degree Special Student for one year following
the dismissal, and then only with approval from the dean
of the school.
