Fall 2024 Confirmation Deadline

The University of Kentucky is extending its confirmation deadline to May 15 for first-year incoming students who wish to enroll for the fall 2024 semester. This extension is due to federal delays associated with important financial aid information. (This deadline does not apply to international students or transfer students.)
