The LOM/LOMV Admissions Committee is responsible for administering the admission policies. Committee members are appointed annually by the provost and include representatives from the LOM department on the main campus and at the Lancaster location. When the application of a student is complete, the Enrollment Counselor presents the student profile and writing sample evaluation to the Admissions Committee via email. The Admission Committee reviews the profile and writing sample for each student within one week and gives one of the following response: approved, conditional (with specific conditions) or not approved (with reasons).
WITHDRAWAL AND READMISSION
WITHDRAWAL POLICY
To withdraw enrollment from the program, the student sends an email to the program director confirming his/her decision to withdraw. Withdrawal from the program may jeopardize financial aid for the rest of the academic year because of federal and state government regulations. Students should consult with the financial assistance office about their particular situation before withdrawing from the program.
Students will earn academic credit for courses completed up to the point of their withdrawal. Grades will be based upon the work completed for each course attended. If a student withdraws before attending half of the class sessions in a course, no grade will be given. If a student withdraws from a course after attending more than half the class sessions but not the final session of that class, a grade of W will be assigned. If the final session is attended, a final grade must be assigned.
If a student misses three consecutive sessions in face-to-face and online classes and is unresponsive to communication from the Undergraduate Program Assistant, he or she may be administratively withdrawn. Students may also be administratively withdrawn for failure to meet academic standards or financial obligations to EMU.
READMISSION PROCEDURE
To re-enter the program, a student must re-apply by filling in the readmission application form and submitting a letter explaining how circumstances have changed since the student withdrew. After one year, a $25 processing fee may be required with the re-application. The application for re-entry will be reviewed by the Admissions Committee. The academic advisor will assist the student in discerning which cohort to join and where in the sequence of courses is best to join the cohort. After the new cohort group has progressed to a point that coincides with the last course completed by the reapplying student, the student may then join this cohort and complete the program.
TUITION FOR READMITTED STUDENTS
The student is charged at the rate current at the point of readmission. In addition, the student will be charged for any course retaken for credit.
