Regular Admissions

Applications are considered for the main campus in Storrs on a space-available basis. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions strongly recommends that you apply to UConn online and as early as possible.

Applications received after the Dec. 1 Early Action date will be processed on a rolling basis. Applications are reviewed and decisions are made after the Office of Undergraduate Admissions has received all required information.

In some cases a final admission decision may be deferred until receipt of additional information, such as mid-year grades. You will be notified of your admission status beginning in early March and continuing through mid-April.

Deferred Enrollment

Deferred enrollment is designed for students who desire to attend the University of Connecticut but, for various reasons, wish to postpone their enrollment. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions offers a one year deferred enrollment to students who have applied to the University, been accepted as freshmen and have paid the $150 acceptance fee.

An approved deferral guarantees your admission for either of the subsequent two academic semesters. During the deferred period, you may not enroll in 12 or more credits at another institution.

Requests for deferral must be in writing and should be received by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions no later than August 1 for the fall semester or December 1 for the spring semester.

International students and transfer students are not eligible for deferred enrollment.
