Re-Admission to the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences

Former KU students (those who have completed at least one hour of credit) must submit a readmission application by the application deadline if they did not attend for at least one full fall or spring semester.

Applications for readmission for a particular semester or questions about the admissions process are handled by the Office of Admissions which also maintains a more detailed list of application deadlines for all applicants.

Applications for readmission for International Students are available through International Undergraduate Admissions, (785) 864-2616, 17 Strong Hall. Application deadlines for international students may vary, so please plan on applying early and work closely with International Undergraduate Admissions.
