I’ve withdrawn from the University of Rochester.
You will need to complete a Readmission Request.
Readmission
Apply for readmission
This reapplication process is for undergraduate students who were previously enrolled either in the College of Arts and Sciences or the Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at the University of Rochester who want to resume study at the University after a formal withdrawal (either voluntary or involuntary), including former students who have exhausted their Leave of Absence (LOA) status from the University.

Required materials
- Must complete all required fields associated with the application, including providing short answers related to your original reason for withdrawal and desire to re-enroll.
- Upload an unofficial Rochester transcript within the form or give the Office of Admissions permission to access it. Contact the Office of the University Registrar to get a copy of your transcript.
- Upload a unofficial transcript in the application form. An official transcript from all institutions will need to be sent to the Office of the University Registrar for any credit to be applied to your student account. The official transcripts can be requested after you confirm your return.
- If applying for Financial Aid for your return ensure that aid documents (FAFSA, CSS Profile, and IDOC) are submitted. For questions, contact your Financial Aid Counselor.
Tips for a successful return request
- If you left on a medical leave, must have clearance to return by University Health Services.
- Early return request based upon separation criteria are unlikely to be approved unless there is sufficient reasoning to support the request.
- If your separation required further approval to return, contact the appropriate office like the Center of Student Conflict Management or Office of the Dean of Students.
- Outstanding balance owed to Rochester must be cleared up before a return will be approved. Contact the Office of the Bursar to address any outstanding financial holds on the account.
- Having a clear academic plan for your returning semester is helpful for us to understand what you want to pursue upon return. Consulting with an advisor prior to submitting a readmissions request can help you understand what you have left to complete, and they can help you develop a academic plan. You can reach out to an advisor you were working with prior to leaving or contact the College Center for Advising Services to set up an appointment.
