Any student who wishes to return to the Institute after an absence may apply to do so by completing a Readmission Application and submitting a non-refundable application fee, certified-true copies of transcripts from all institutions attended since last attending the Institute, and other official documentation for specific circumstances as requested below:
Medical Withdrawals
A physician’s statement must be included and it must indicate that the applicant is ready to resume studies. Additionally, it should describe any special needs the student may require upon returning to the Institute.
Readmission After Administrative Withdrawal
A statement explaining how time away from the institute was spent, why the student wishes to return, and how the student plans to be successful by returning should be submitted as part of the application for readmission. Students dismissed for academic reasons are not eligible to apply for readmission until at least one semester has passed since the formal dismissal from the Institute.
Readmission After Disciplinary Action
Applicants should include a formal appeal for the Appeals and Disciplinary Committee to review along with their application for readmission. Applicants previously withdrawn for disciplinary reasons must receive clearance from the Appeals and Disciplinary Committee to return.
Readmission for Personal Reasons
There are usually no impediments to returning to the Institute if there is space available; however, an academic plan may need to be developed with the student’s advisor upon reenrollment, and students requesting readmission after an extended period of time must meet with an academic advisor to determine the viability of completing their degree program.
Readmission After Non-payment of Account
Outstanding accounts must first be settled before applying for readmission. Once settled, the policy for readmission follows the same guidelines listed in the Readmission for Personal Reasons section.
Submission of Official Transcripts of Non- DigiPen Coursework
All readmission applicants to DigiPen Institute of Technology Europe-Bilbao must request an official transcript from the Institute’s Office of the Administration to be sent to the Office of Admissions as part of their application. Additionally, if you have taken courses from another college since leaving the Institute, you must also have any and ALL official transcripts forwarded to the Office of Admissions from the Office of the Administration of each institution attended. The transcripts should show all academic work until the last semester or quarter you completed. If you are approved for readmission with coursework in progress, your admission status will be provisional, pending receipt of your final transcript(s). Finally, readmission applicants who are applying for readmission more than one year after withdrawing and who are not native English speakers may have to submit additional Proof of English language proficiency. Please see the Proof of English Language Proficiency section in the Undergraduate Admissions section.
