RULE §3.30Required Transcript Notation When a Student Is Ineligible to Reenroll Due to Non-academic or Non-financial Reason

(a) Each postsecondary educational institution as defined by Texas Education Code §51.9364 will publish its process for transcript notations. "Ineligible to reenroll" will be defined by the notating postsecondary educational institution.

(b) For students ineligible to reenroll in a postsecondary educational institution for a non-academic or non-financial reason, including, but not limited to disciplinary actions, each postsecondary educational institution must include on the student's transcript a notation stating the student is ineligible to reenroll in the postsecondary educational institution for a non-academic or non-financial reason. The postsecondary educational institution must use language to indicate the student is ineligible to reenroll in the institution, regardless of instructional modality. The postsecondary educational institution is neither required nor prohibited from stating the specific reason for ineligibility.

(c) If a student withdraws from the postsecondary educational institution prior to final resolution of the postsecondary educational institution's published disciplinary process that may result in the student becoming ineligible to reenroll for a non-academic or non-financial reason, the postsecondary educational institution:

  (1) may not end the disciplinary process until the postsecondary educational institution makes a final determination of responsibility, including, if applicable, a determination of whether the student will be ineligible to reenroll in the postsecondary educational institution for a non-academic or non-financial reason; and

  (2) shall include on the student's transcript the notation required under subsection (b) of this section if, as a result of the disciplinary process, the student is ineligible to reenroll in the postsecondary educational institution for a non-academic or non-financial reason.

(d) Upon request by a student, a postsecondary educational institution may remove from a student's transcript a notation required under subsection (b) of this section if:

  (1) the student becomes eligible to reenroll in the postsecondary educational institution; or

  (2) the postsecondary educational institution determines that good cause exists to remove the notation.
