Getting Started

"Military duty" means any activity of a service member performing a duty under a lawful military order, including training.

Students who are called to military duty and must step away from classes for training or temporary duty during a long semester, or are unable to attend a long semester, are required to submit a Readmission application, along with a copy of orders. The copy of the orders will serve as a fee waiver for the application fee.

As long as the student left the university in good academic standing and is returning to the same major, readmission is granted most of the time. If the student did not leave in good standing or applies for a different major, the application will have to go through the regular review process.

Information and instructions for students called to active military service is available on the Office of the University Registrar website.

Please note, upon your return, you are required to submit a Readmission application, along with a copy of orders. The copy of the orders will serve as a fee waiver for the application fee.

As long as you left the university in good academic standing and are returning to the same major, readmission is granted most of the time. If you did not leave in good standing or apply for a different major, the application will have to go through the regular review process.

"Active military service" means state active-duty service, federally funded state active-duty service or federal active-duty service. The term does not include service performed exclusively for training, such as basic combat training, advanced individual training, annual training, inactive duty training and special training periodically made available to service members.
