Readmission
Returning to Cal Maritime
Welcome back!
Students who were previously enrolled at Cal Maritime and are now requesting to return are required to submit a Cal Maritime Application for Readmission. Here are some important details to know before starting the readmission process:
路 Students requesting to return to Cal Maritime after an absence of less than 1 year will retain their catalog rights and degree program if approved for readmission (unless changing majors).
路 Students returning after an absence of more than 1 year (or changing majors) may not retain their catalog rights and may be subject to the academic requirements for the degree of the most recently admitted class. Students returning from continuous military leave are an exception and will retain their original catalog rights if returning to their original degree program.
路 Students requesting to change majors are strongly encouraged to discuss their change of major request with the Department Chair or Dean of that program before submitting their application for readmission.
