Wondering when classes start? Looking to squeeze in some courses between semesters? Which holidays does UConn observe?
We understand that admission is not a one-size-fits-all process and that there are reasons first-year students may need to delay the start of their UConn education to up to a year from the admission term. Whether it be to pursue a unique travel opportunity, to serve in the military or public service, or due to chronic illness, simply submit the Gap Year/Deferment Request Form found in your applicant portal and share your plan with us. To secure your seat, submission of the non-refundable enrollment fee is required by UConn's extended enrollment fee deadline of June 1. Students may not enroll at another institution, professional certification program, or participate in a post-graduate year at a secondary school during the gap year/deferment period.
