Please note: Reapplying for admission does not guarantee your readmission or enrollment at Minnesota State College Southeast or the college's career/technical programs. All students in continuous career/technical programs who have been away from the college for one or more terms must be readmitted to the program major and comply with the program requirements in effect when returning to the college. Re-acceptance into a career/technical program is contingent upon review of your application file, academic status, and space availability in the technical program major. Returning students who have a hold or suspension on their record may be required to complete additional steps before they may be eligible to enroll in classes.
