Eligibility for Reentry - LVN

A student who has been academically dismissed from West Coast University may apply for reentry to the University if they:

a. after dismissal, have graduated from an approved LVN program with a 3.0 GPA,

b. successfully passed the NCLEX-PN; and

c. meet all admissions requirements.

The applicant must be in good standing with the University with the exception of previous Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) or GPA requirements. If any other “good standing” issues exist, the individual will be admitted on probationary status.  If a student in probationary status is not in “good standing” after completing their first-semester of coursework, they will be dismissed from the University.   If an applicant was previously dismissed from West Coast University for any conduct violations, he/she will not be admitted to the program.  Please refer to the “Good Standing” policy for specific information on the terms of this policy.

If the applicant successfully reenters, the University will waive the general education recency requirements. Credit for core nursing classes successfully passed at West Coast University will be
considered with the approval of the Campus Dean of Nursing.

An individual who is readmitted by this clause will not be considered for dismissal due to previous course failures. Any failures that occur after the student has re-entered the program will be subject to the university dismissal policy
