Re-entry/Readmission of Former Students for Nursing Programs

Students seeking readmission after an absence of one year or longer must apply for readmission, may be readmitted without retesting for admission, but must apply for readmission. If they were enrolled at other colleges during their absence, transcripts of coursework taken must be sent to South University. A candidate for readmission must either demonstrate that they already meet the entrance test requirement for admission in effect at the time of readmission or retest to achieve that minimum entrance score.  For Nurse Practitioner specializations only: NSG5003 Advanced Pathophysiology, NSG6005 Pharmacology, NSG6020 Advanced Health and Physical Assessment must have been completed within five years of the date of re-entry into the program or these courses must be repeated.

Students seeking re-entry after an absence of less than a year may resume their previous program curriculum, or if a curriculum change has occurred since their original start date, they may opt to move to the new program curriculum. Students seeking readmission after an absence of one year or longer must enroll in the new program curriculum. Requests for exceptions to the program enrollment requirement may be submitted to the Program Director or designee.
