The readmission process is initiated when the registrar's office receives your Request for Readmission. We encourage you to complete the request form electronically and email it as an attachment to registrar@smith.edu. Requests for the fall semester are due by March 1st and requests for the Spring semester are due by November 1st.
Once the request has been received, it will be reviewed and you will be contacted about possible additional requirements or the decision of the board. All communications from the registrar's office concerning readmission will be sent electronically. Please be sure to provide a current email address at which we may contact you throughout the process.
If you have completed coursework while withdrawn from Smith, be sure to submit course descriptions of all work. These descriptions are found in the course catalogue or bulletin that was current when you took the courses. If you no longer have the catalogues/bulletins, you should contact the registrar’s offices of those institutions and request that copies of the course descriptions be sent to you. If you completed the courses recently, descriptions are likely to be found online.
In addition, you must request that official transcripts be sent from those institutions directly to the Smith registrar’s office at:
Office of the Registrar
Smith College
College Hall 102
Northampton, MA, 01063
The Readmission Subcommittee of the Administrative Board reviews requests and determines if there are additional requirements (transcripts, letters of reference, an interview with the class dean, or medical or financial clearances) that must be met before the request can proceed to the full Administrative Board.
You will be notified by email of any requirements. Please be aware that this letter may include an additional deadline for completing a requirement. If your application is incomplete at that time, it is possible that it will not be considered for the coming semester. In advance of receiving that letter, you should know that:
- If you withdrew for medical reasons through Smith College Health Services, you will be required to receive medical clearance to return. You will need to contact Health Services at (413) 585-2806 to learn their clearance procedures.
- If you have a financial hold on your record, you will need to receive clearance from Student Financial Services in order to return. You should contact Student Financial Services directly for more information at (413) 585-2530 or sfs@smith.edu.
Once the Readmission Subcommittee determines that all requirements have been met, your request will be considered by the Administrative Board. The sooner requirements are completed, the sooner your request can be considered and you can be notified of the decision. You will be notified by email if your request is approved or denied.
If you are approved for readmission, you must submit a check or money order for $100 to cover the general deposit required of all readmitted students. Until this deposit is paid, you will not be considered an enrolled student, your housing will not be assigned, and your financial aid will not be calculated. The enrollment deposit is never waived.
Along with the general deposit, you must submit a completed housing application form (a housing application will be sent to you with your acceptance letter). The housing form is required of all readmitted students, even those requesting permission to live off-campus.
