5. Readmission Policies
Associate Degree Rule
Two Year Rule

6. Associate Degree Rule
If a student earns an Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, or Associate of Fine Arts degree from a community college after the last attendance at UNC Charlotte, the Associate Degree Rule forgiveness policy applies (unless the Two Year Rule was used prior).
NOTE: Students may be readmitted one time under the “Associate Degree Rule” or the “Two-Year Rule” but not both.

7. Associate Degree Rule
In this case, a student is readmitted with a maximum of 64 credit hours and begins the new semester with a zero GPA.
Any prior UNC Charlotte credit that was not used towards completion of the associate degree can be requested to be included in the student's UNC Charlotte academic record through completion and approval of an Academic Petition form.

8. Two Year Rule
Any undergraduate student who has not been enrolled at UNC Charlotte for a minimum period of 24 consecutive months is eligible for one readmission under the "Two-Year Rule".
The "Two-Year Rule" will be applied automatically if the student is eligible.
Students electing not to have it applied may exercise this option by filling a form with the Office of the Registrar after consulting with their advisor and obtaining approval from the dean of their college.

9. Two Year Rule
If a student is readmitted under the provisions of the "Two-Year Rule", only those courses for which the student has received a grade of C or above (or H or P) can be used for academic credit.
The recalculated GPA will be based only on the courses that return with the student and the courses taken after readmission.
NOTE: Students may be readmitted one time under the “Associate Degree Rule” or the “Two-Year Rule” but not both.

10. SOAR
Students may choose to attend one of the many scheduled SOAR orientation sessions prior to their first semester. Visit soar.uncc.edu for additional information.

17. Financial Aid: Recent Changes
PELL Grant Eligibility
A recent change in the law limits the total lifetime amount of Pell Grant funding a student may receive to the equivalent of twelve (12) full-time semesters or six (6) years. This change affects all Pell Grant eligible students beginning with the award year.
Repeat Policy
Beginning with the 2012 spring term, students may only receive federal financial aid for one repetition (repeat) of a previously passed course.  This means that students (undergraduate and graduate) who have already passed a course with a grade of D or better may only repeat the class one additional time and receive financial aid for that course. 
No student may repeat a course a third time and receive financial aid for the course.
