Academic Suspension and transfer.

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I completed 2 years at a state university in Minnesota and had a 2.0 GPA. I was placed on academic suspension from the university. According to school policy I will be eligible to go school next semester. Students put on suspension are eligible to come back after a year and I have to send them a reinstatement form by November of this month. </p>

<p>During my suspension, I enrolled myself in a community college and am working towards an advanced diploma and have 3.9 GPA. I do not want to go back to my initial university. </p>

<p>1)What would be my course of action if I wanted to transfer elsewhere?
2)Do I apply for reinstatement at my current University so that my suspension is lifted and then transfer to another university? </p>

<p>Sincerely,
Jimmy</p>

<p>I don’t think the university that you were suspended from would prevent you to transfer to other college/university.</p>

<p>You just have to start the transfer process with the school that you interested in.</p>

<p>Depending on the grades, you may be transfer in as a second year or third year student.</p>

<p>As part of your transfer application, your old school needs to turn in the College Official’s form which asks if you are in academic good standing. Call your old school up and ask them how they would respond to such an inquiry now that a year has passed since your suspension. </p>

<p>You still need to address the suspension in your application, but if your old school says that you are currently in good standing with them, then you can apply to other schools using whatever instructions they give on their website.</p>

<p>Thank you so much. </p>

<p>I contacted the admissions office at the university I intend to transfer to and they told me that I need to be out of school for a minimum of 12 months which I will be before the winter semester and I would need to write an appeal letter stating what went wrong, what I have been doing during my suspension and how I have addressed my previous issues. </p>

<p>Would anyone of you (in this forum) be willing to take a look at my appeal letter and give me some constructive criticism? </p>

<p>Sincerely,
Jimmy</p>
