During your time on academic probation at UTSA, you were required to achieve a minimum of a 2.0 grade point average (GPA). Unfortunately, you did not meet the required minimum GPA this semester and therefore have been placed on academic dismissal. If you have already registered for classes for next semester, or if the registration system allows you to register for classes, your registration will be canceled.

 

If this is your first academic dismissal, you will not be able to attend UTSA for at least one semester and you must re-apply for admission back into the university. If this is not your first academic dismissal, you will not be able to attend UTSA for at least one calendar year (12 months) and you must re-apply for admission. Students who have been dismissed three times are not eligible to apply for readmission into UTSA.

 

Readmission into UTSA is not guaranteed. To be considered for readmission, you will be required to submit a Readmission Application on applytexas.org, pay the $70 application fee, and submit a reinstatement petition packet to the One Stop Enrollment Center. The packet, including instructions and a list of required documentation, may be found on the Admissions website: https://future.utsa.edu/admissions/returning-student/.

 

The application, reinstatement fee, petition form and reinstatement packet (including all required supporting documentation) must be on file by the stated deadlines below:

 

Fall Semester - May 15             Spring Semester - October 15                Summer Semester - March 15

 

During your academic dismissal period, you may choose to attend another college or university; however, grades earned at other institutions will not change your UTSA GPA. As part of your readmission packet, you must submit transcripts for any coursework you complete at another institution.  You must receive at least a 2.0 GPA to transfer any courses taken at other institutions.  We encourage you to meet with your academic advisor to help you determine which courses will transfer to UTSA, and which courses should only be taken at UTSA.

 

If you are re-admitted, you will be placed on academic probation and will be required to meet with your assigned academic advisor before registering for classes.

Sincerely,

Timothy Yuen
Associate Dean for Academic Programs
