Welcome to our awesome new website!

As you may have noticed, the LAS website is sporting a new look.

The makeover was driven by a need to improve accessibility and web standards support. But the site was also overdue for some re-organization, cleaning, and a fresh look to tie it all together.

We encourage you to explore the site. If you find any broken links or other issues we may have missed, please let us know. We will be continually refining the site, adding new features and functionality. We are making every effort to ensure the site meets the needs of our current and future students, our alumni, our faculty and staff, and all other friends of the college.

Thanks for visiting!

The website was developed by the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, with the design by the LAS Office of Communications and Marketing and implementation by ATLAS Web Services.

Returning to LAS after time away

LAS students who voluntarily withdrew during the semester or "stopped out" for a semester are generally eligible for re-entry to the LAS major in which they were last enrolled, provided they meet both these conditions:

Choose one of the following steps, depending upon your time of absence:

  • Students who have ‘stopped out" for one semester only should contact their admissions/records officer to arrange for an assigned registration time which reflects class status; open registration time tickets (after the fourth week) are assigned automatically.
  • Students who have ‘stopped out" for at least two semesters but not more than two calendar years should submit an Intent to Return to LAS form according to the deadlines below.
  • Students who have ‘stopped out" for a period exceeding two calendar years must apply to re-enter LAS.
