Acceptance of Fresh Start Application
The final authority on applying or interpreting Texas Education Code 51.931, Right to an Academic Fresh Start is the DMC Director of Admissions. When the Fresh Start application is approved, the DMC Registrar's office will be notified and upon enrollment, a message will be posted to the student's academic record indicating admission has been granted through the Academic Fresh Start provision. If the student was previously enrolled at DMC, the grade point average will be changed on the academic record for any coursework completed here 10 or more years prior to the re-enrollment date. The original courses or grades will not be considered in the grade point average, but they will remain on the DMC academic record.
