Readmission to Dutchess Community College is necessary for students who have not been in attendance according to the criteria below and were previously matriculated (degree-seeking) and wish to re-enter as a degree-seeking student. In order to be readmitted students must officially apply for readmission. Readmitted students are matriculated under the catalog term of their returning semester and are required to meet degree and program requirements in place at the time of readmission. Official transcripts from each college attended since leaving DCC should be submitted for review if applicable.

Readmission is required for students who meet any of the following criteria:

You previously applied and were accepted to DCC but never attended.

You were accepted to DCC and attended, but since had a break of two or more consecutive semesters in your enrollment (excluding summer and winter terms).

You were academically dismissed from the College and lost your matriculation status.

You were non-academically dismissed from the College and lost your matriculation status.

You have graduated from DCC and are looking to return to pursue a second degree.
