Students seeking readmission to Western and its Affiliated University Colleges, following withdrawal for failure to achieve satisfactory academic standing, must submit an application for readmission through the Ontario Universities' Application Centre by the applicable deadline. In addition, a "Reconsideration of Admission Statement", supplied by the Registrar's Office, must be submitted with supporting documentation to the Admissions Office.

The session to which readmission is sought may not begin until one full year (twelve months) from the time of withdrawal, which has been established as the last day of the relevant academic session. Readmission is neither automatic nor guaranteed. Appeals against decisions to deny readmission will be considered only on presentation of additional evidence.
