Records and Registration

If you withdrew from your studies and have been away for more than one semester, you may be eligible for reinstatement into your previous program.  We carefully review each application and supporting documents to determine the action plan based on your prior academic performance, external education, and if applicable, certain circumstances leading to your withdrawal.  

• Fall Readmission Deadline: August 1st
• Spring Readmission Deadline: December 1st 

Do I need to reapply for reinstatement?

Here’s how you know you need to apply for reinstatement.

Returning students who were suspended, dismissed, or not in good academic standing (with less than a 2.0 undergraduate cumulative GPA) may also apply for reinstatement. If you left Coppin under these circumstances, submit your application packet directly to the Academic Review Committee. After we receive your application packet, the Committee reviews and determines a readmission decision.

What is the readmission process?

1. Complete and submit your completed Coppin Undergraduate Reinstatement Application
2. Pay the $35 non-refundable application fee
3. Submit official transcripts from all schools attended in the interim
4. Address any financial obligations to the institution
5. Tax Forms: If you have been away from Coppin for one calendar year, you must also submit a certified copy of your Maryland 502 Income Tax Transcript to verify your Maryland residency
6. Letter of Intent: If you were suspended, dismissed or left Coppin with less than a cumulative 2.0 GPA, submit a statement explaining led to your academic performance, and also a proposed plan of action to achieve and remain in good academic standing. You may also submit any additional information, including recommendations, reference letters, or medical documentation.

Electronically submit your completed application to the Office of Records & Registration.

If you are mailing any documentation, send to: Coppin State University Office of Records and Registration 2500 West North Avenue Baltimore, Maryland 21216

How do I register for classes once I’m reinstated?

The “HOLD” indicator on your student registration is our way of encouraging you to schedule time with your academic advisor to discuss course requirements, and make sure you are on track to graduate. If you are returning to Coppin with less than 25 credits, you may need to sit for placement testing.

Remember, you must meet with your academic advisor so they can remove any registration holds. Get ready to register for classes with these steps:
