Overview

Normally, suspended students have to wait at least one full semester before enrolling in courses at UWF.  Sometimes students wait longer, depending on their circumstances; the recommendations of their respective advisors, department chairpersons, and College reinstatement committees; and the decision of their respective College dean.

However, recently suspended students can appeal for immediate reinstatement if they have exceptional circumstances.  Examples of these circumstances include

• serious illness of the student,
• serious illness or death in the immediate family,
• military orders.

These exception circumstances must also be documented.  Examples of this documentation includes

• A doctor's note, written on an official letterhead;
• The obituary of an immediate family member;
• Paperwork that shows your military status changed to full-time active duty;
• Court papers that show you have been divorced or separated;
• Paperwork that shows you lost your home to a fire or flood.
