Applicants who are denied admission are encouraged to reapply for a future year. By improving the areas suggested on the original decision letters (i.e. improving grades by taking additional course work, devoting more time and energy to any required portfolios, etc.), many individuals reapplying for admission are accepted.
To reapply, applicants should submit a new application form and indicate that they have applied previously for admission. The Office of Admissions retains all materials submitted by applicants for a period of six years. Therefore, items such as transcripts, letters of recommendations (optional for applicants to the Institute’s undergraduate degree programs), and test scores can be transferred from an applicant’s original file to the new application file.
Students who are reapplying need to supply the following materials only:
- New application form. Please submit online.
- 25€ application fee.
- Any new or updated documents, such as new transcripts, new test scores, etc.
- A short essay describing the progress and improvements that the applicant has made in the areas recommended in the original decision letter.
- After submitting their new application, readmission applicants are encouraged to contact the Office of Admissions by email at admissions.es@digipen.es to confirm whether any additional materials are needed for the completion of their application.
