If you have credit for Area A1 English (ENGL 1101) and Math (MATH 1101, 1111, 1112, 1113, 1241 or 1501), you are exempt from testing. If you do not have credit for the required courses and it has been more than one year since your last test date, you must retest. Admission will be denied if you fail to meet the minimum score on any of the three areas of the ACCUPLACER. Learn more about the ACCUPLACER test.

Students seeking readmission to Clayton State after an academic suspension or dismissal must complete the admission requirements for traditional readmission and the appeal process by 30 days from the start of term.

Appeals will be considered only if you sat out from Clayton State University for the required length of time. Students on academic suspension must sit out one semester. Students on academic dismissal must sit out one year (3 semesters).

Once the suspension/dismissal period has elapsed, you must complete the following:

1. Complete the admission requirements listed for traditional readmission students (see top of page).
2. Complete the Readmission Appeal Form.
   1. Compose an appeal letter according to the directions found on the Readmission Appeal Form .
   2. Upload any supporting documentation you may have to the Appeal Form. If applicable, you may include letters from faculty, advisors, or others who may be able to provide information to support your appeal. Attach all documentation to your appeal form.

Once you have submitted all required documentation, your appeal will be reviewed by the Readmission Appeal Committee. The committee considers all the information you provide and examines your academic history from Clayton State and any other colleges/universities you have attended. If you currently are enrolled at another school, the appeal committee must receive a final, official transcript from that institution before a decision can be reached.

The decision of the committee will be communicated to you in a letter mailed to the address you provide on your readmission appeal form. The decision of the committee is considered final.
