Steps to apply
Complete the steps below to be evaluated for admission to the University of Arizona.
Step
1Make Sure Re-Admissions Is For You
This is the correct application for you if any of the following apply:
- You attended the University of Arizona as a degree-seeking undergraduate in the past, left in poor academic standing, and have missed at least one semester
- You were enrolled as a degree-seeking undergraduate, then withdrew and received grades reflecting that you “Withdrew” (e.g. WC), and more than two consecutive semesters have passed following your withdrawal
- If you were enrolled at the University of Arizona last semester as a continuing degree-seeking undergraduate student, then dropped all of your classes and no grades appear on your record for that semester
- If you are a graduating Arizona student, or have already graduated from the UA, and you wish to continue as a degree-seeking student
- If you think you meet the criteria for Second Start, contact your academic advisor to discuss whether Second Start is the right option for you. Your advisor contact information, including how to schedule an appointment, is in your UAccess Student Center or the Academic Advising Directory.
You must submit a regular degree-seeking application if any of the following apply:
- Last semester was the first semester of your enrollment at UA, and you dropped all of your classes prior to the 100-percent-refund period and no class registration or grades appear on your record for that semester
- Your only enrollment at the University of Arizona has been as a non-degree-seeking student, a graduate student, or a continuing-education student
You may register without re-applying if any of the following apply:
- You were enrolled last semester, then withdrew from the University of Arizona and received grades of WC or did not receive a 100-percent-refund, you are eligible to register for classes next semester without being readmitted.
- If you also left in good academic standing last semester, you may qualify for the Back2UA program.
