Apply for Admission
You must first apply to the University of Utah in order to participate in a UOnline program. There is not a separate application for UOnline. After you have been admitted and completed orientation, you will receive access to register for classes through UOnline.
Before you apply, visit our State Authorizations page to ensure that we are authorized to offer our services in your state.
Graduate Students
Graduate students have already received an undergraduate degree from the U or another university. Please note that you must be accepted by the University AND the specific program you are pursuing. Program application deadlines vary.
Undergraduate Students
If you are applying to nursing or social work UOnline programs, you must apply to both the University of Utah and to the program.
Please note the following instructions for the application form:
- Under "Campus," select "Main (Salt Lake City, Utah / UOnline Programs)."
- Select an eligible UOnline Program for your academic interest. Only these undergraduate programs are eligible.
- You must select Bachelors of Science (BS) for UOnline Undergraduate Programs.
- You will be asked if you intend to complete your classes completely online. Check
this box to indicate that you are a UOnline student.
Returning students are those who have previously attended the U but did not graduate. If you attended another school, you will need to submit official transcripts.
Transfer students are those who have never attended the U but have earned at least 30 credits at another university or college. You will need to request official transcripts from your previous schools.
If you have earned fewer than 30 college credits after high school, you need to apply as a freshman. Freshmen cannot start their university experience with UOnline. You will need to complete at least one semester on campus before you can change your status to UOnline.
Second bachelor’s students are those who have completed a bachelor’s degree from any regionally accredited college or university, including the University of Utah.
