X. Registration Holds and Controls
Students with unpaid balances, disciplinary sanctions, unmet immunization requirements, or other such conditions to warrant a registration hold are prevented from enrolling in classes until the condition is resolved and the hold is removed.
Registration controls including prerequisites, co-requisites, maximum hours, level, and program restrictions may also exist to limit or prevent registration in specific circumstances. Students should consult their adviser, resolve all holds, and take note of any registration restrictions that pertain to their student status and course selection, prior to their appointed registration date for an upcoming term.

Y. Reinstatement To Illinois Tech
Students who have withdrawn or taken a leave of absence and now wish to return to Illinois Tech must submit an application for reinstatement to the Office of Academic Affairs. The deadlines for reinstatement are June 15 for the fall semester, November 15 for the spring semester and April 15 for the summer term. Students must submit official transcripts from all colleges and universities attended since last enrolled at Illinois Tech. In some cases, additional interviews may be required for Reinstatement. International students must contact the International Center in addition to submitting an application for Reinstatement/Readmission. See https://web.iit.edu/international-center for more information.
Students who were on academic probation when they stopped attending or were placed on Academic Suspension will be reinstated on probation if approved. In these cases, students must submit a personal statement explaining what lead to them being place on probation/suspension, and a plan for future success. The application will be reviewed by the major department and an interview may be required. Students who wish to change their major must adhere to all university academic policies and procedures.
Students who are returning from a medical leave will need to submit appropriate documentation from their health care provider with their application. See section W.2 for more information.
With respect to both undergraduate and graduate students, if they were suspended for disciplinary reasons, the student’s reinstatement application must be reviewed by the Office of the Vice Provost for Student Affairs.
Z. Repeating a Course
Undergraduate students may repeat a course for a change of grade. A request to repeat a course for a change of grade must be submitted through the online form (iit.edu/ugaa/services), during registration. Both grades will be recorded on all transcripts issued. Only the second grade will be used to compute the GPA, even if the second grade is lower, except when the second grade is I, R, S, U, W, X, or AU. The course repeat policy is as follows:
● A course repeated for a grade change must be taken within one calendar year after initial enrollment in that course or the next time it is offered (whichever is longer).
● The same course may be repeated only once for a change of grade.
● A maximum of three 100-level and 200-level courses may be repeated for a change of grade. A
maximum of three 300-level and 400-level courses may be repeated for a change of grade. Course repeats not used for 100 and 200 level courses cannot be carried forward to 300 and 400 level courses.
● Re-registration for courses in which a student received a C grade or better grade requires the approval of the student's academic advisor.
● If a course is no longer offered by Illinois Tech, the provision to repeat the course for a grade change does not apply.
Graduate Students may repeat up to two distinct courses with each course being repeated once. Both grades will be recorded and the grade used in the calculation of the GPA will be the latest recorded. There
