By filling out the form toward the top of the page, you will be contacted by an advisor who will review your eligibility to return to UVA and explain what your next steps should be. To return as a student of the College of Arts & Sciences on-Grounds, you will need to apply for readmission. If you left UVA and transferred to another institution and now wish to return, you must apply for admission as a transfer student.
Through your application process, we will want to hear what you've been doing since you've been gone, and what your academic plan is when you return.
Each year, the UVA College of Arts & Sciences welcomes students back who have left for a wide variety of reasons. If you want to resume your academic journey on Grounds, we would love to talk to you.
