Students who
were suspended at the end of summer and who did not
attend the fall semester are to follow the
Request to Resume
Studies process (see the information after
the gray box).
If all of the following
apply to you, do not use the Request to Resume
Studies process.
You must appeal your
(probable) suspension through your academic dean.
If you follow
the Request to Resume Studies process, your
information will be returned to you unprocessed.
1. You attended
during a fall semester (beginning with fall 2005)
AND
2. You were placed on academic probation at
the end of the fall semester AND
3. You did not attend the immediate subsequent spring semester or
the immediate subsequent summer sessions AND
4. You are facing suspension as a result of
not having an opportunity to raise your cumulative
GPA above 2.000 (did not attend LHU during the
spring semester or any of the summer sessions)
AND
5. You want to resume studies the following
fall semester.
Then, you must appeal your probable suspension
through your academic dean.
If the above does not
apply to you and you are interested in resuming your studies at Lock Haven University after a period of absence, please read this information.
Approval of your request
to resume studies through the Registrar's Office neither
implies nor guarantees the receipt of financial aid or
the ability to enroll. A student's previous
academic and financial history can affect the ability to
receive financial aid. Any current or prior unpaid
or delinquent account balances will hinder a student's
ability to re-enroll. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
that all students, who wish to resume their studies,
contact Student Financial Services (SFS) prior to
submitting this application to review financial aid
eligibility, as the resume studies fee once paid is
non-refundable. Inquiries can be made in person at
123 Russell Hall or by phoning 570-484-2344.
Please be advised that
the request to resume studies must be done no later than
three (3) weeks before the start of any term.
Requests made after that time may be subject to time
delays due to processing time, which could cause delays
in notification of a student's ability to resume studies
based on financial, or other, information.
Request to Resume
Studies
By following the
process outlined below, your re-admittance to LHU should go smoothly.
Keep in mind that the $200.00 deposit is
non-refundable and cannot be waived. It
must be included with your request to return.
Before continuing, you
should plan ahead on some items related to your request
to return
to LHU.
- Be sure you have no back balance with the
university.
- Be sure you will be able to pay for your
return. This includes the $200.00 non-refundable deposit and the tuition and fees you
will incur as a registered student.
- Be aware of your financial aid eligibility.
Upon receipt of the request to resume studies form and
the $200.00 non-refundable deposit, the
Registrar's Office will forward a copy of your request
to Student Financial Services. If needed, a review of your
financial record may be completed and you may receive
information via email about financial issues. Not
all students will receive information from SFS.
However, if you do, pay close attention to this
information.
- Review your academic requirements. You
may want to contact the faculty member who was your
advisor when you last attended.
- Be sure the classes you need will be offered.
If you are now ready to
continue with this process, then.....
- Complete the
Request to
Resume Studies Form and submit to the Registrar's Office.
- Include with
your request a $200.00 non-refundable deposit (check,
money order, or cash).
Students in the
Master of Health Science/Physician Assistant program
must include the $200 deposit. Students in the
Master of Education and Master of Liberal Arts graduate programs need not include the $200.00 deposit.
---- PLEASE NOTE: CURRENTLY CREDIT CARDS
CANNOT BE ACCEPTED.
- After your file is reviewed and you have
been approved to resume studies, you will receive registration information. You will register for courses via the internet. An alternate
method of registration is available for those without access to the
internet.
- If you are
returning after a period of academic suspension, you may
be required to receive financial counseling.
Please check your LHU email account and US postal
service mail for important information. (Questions
about this may be directed to Student Financial
Services, Russell Hall 123 or 570-484-2344.)
- If you are unsure about an
unmet financial obligation, contact Student Financial
Services at 570-484-2344. If you have a
financial hold when you request to resume your studies,
your request will be reviewed. If you are approved
to return, your $200.00 deposit will be applied toward
your back balance. You will be responsible for any
remaining balance prior to be being able to register.
Remember, the $200.00 deposit is non-refundable,
regardless of whether you are able to satisfy the
remaining outstanding balance. A financial hold
prevents registration.
If you have questions about this process, please feel free to
contact the Registrar's Office at 570-484-2006. Financial questions should
be address to Student Financial Services at 570-484-2344.
