for Admission from Dismissed Status (PDF)
This form is filed with a regular Application
for Admission by all students who have been dismissed for academic or
progress reasons from Chabot College. Students are advised of the action
taken on the petition as soon as possible.
Policy on Readmission Based on Academic Status: Students who have
been dismissed from Chabot or Las Positas College may apply for readmission
after one semester of non-attendance. Students so applying may be readmitted
upon the approval of the Vice President of Student Services or designee
of Chabot or Las Positas College. Students readmitted after dismissal from
Chabot or Las Positas College may be subject to regulation of their classes
and number of units attempted. Students readmitted who are subsequently
dismissed a second time shall be dismissed from the College and will not
be eligible for readmission until after five (5) years of non-attendance.
In extreme cases in which dismissal resulted from extenuating circumstances,
students ineligible for admission under the above regulations may appeal
to the Vice President of Student Services or designee for special consideration
and may be readmitted upon approval of their petition. Such extenuating
circumstances shall be those acute medical, family, or other personal problems
which rendered normal academic functioning unlikely or impossible. The Vice
President of Student Services, with the approval of the President or designee,
may reduce or eliminate the waiting period described above due to extenuating
circumstances. Any student admitted via this method must submit to
a controlled academic program under the immediate supervision of a counselor.

Policy on Readmission Based on Academic Progress: Students who have
been dismissed from Chabot or Las Positas College because of unacceptable
progress may apply for readmission after one semester of non-attendance. Students
so applying may be readmitted upon the approval of the Vice President of
Student Services or designee. Students readmitted who have a cumulative
progress ratio of less than fifty percent (50%) after completion of the
semester immediately following readmission shall be placed on progress probation. If
after another semester they still have poor cumulative progress, then they
shall be dismissed and shall not be eligible for readmission until after
five (5) years of non-attendance. The Vice President of Student Services
or designee may reduce or eliminate the waiting period described above due
to extenuating circumstances. Any student admitted via this method
must submit to a controlled academic program under the immediate supervision
of a counselor.
