Major and general education requirements that are in effect the year (known as the catalog year) when the student initially enters Hiram College will remain in effect for the student during the five-year period from their date of entrance.

Students who wish to return to the College after being withdrawn for longer than a calendar year and have first-year or sophomore standing (55 or fewer earned hours) will be required to complete the current general education requirements, which may or may not be the same as those of the initial catalog year.

Students with junior or senior standing will be required to complete the general education and major requirements of their initial catalog year. However, students who have been withdrawn from the College for longer than four years beyond their initial catalog year should be aware that Hiram College cannot guarantee the initial catalog year’s general education and major requirements will be accommodated. Moreover, any special arrangements for meeting the major requirements may be withdrawn after a one-year period.

Hiram seeks to support as much as possible students who wish to be readmitted.

Students seeking readmission should address questions about the general education requirements to the registrar’s office.
