A Shorter URL For You

We admit that some URLs can get a little out of hand. Thankfully, there is a solution. We can create shorter, easier to remember, redirection URLs for you in a special area of our website called /go/.

We admit that some URLs can get a little out of hand. Most won’t remember that information about applying to be a student at Gustavus is located at http://admission.gustavus.edu/admissions/apply/. Even fewer will want to take the time to actually type that thing in.

Thankfully, there is a solution. We can create shorter, easier to remember, redirection URLs for you in a special area of our website called /go/. That means http://admission.gustavus.edu/admissions/apply/ becomes http://gustavus.edu/go/apply/ or even just gac.edu/go/apply.

Got a URL you’d like people to go to? Let us know and we’ll set up a redirect for you.

  1. One to get to webadvisor would be great!

    The URL http://gustavus.edu/go/webadvisor should already work.

  3. One to gts tools page would be nice too!

  4. Is there a listing of all of these “go” URL’s? Should/could there be one created?

    1. There is currently no comprehensive listing available and we do not plan on creating one at this time. Until recently, most of the “go” URLs have been created for very specific purposes and most people would not find them useful.

    2. I just started this wiki article to collect these URLs: https://gustavus.edu/gts/List_of_shortcut_URLs

  5. I would utilize one for the bookmark! Maybe …/go/bookstore and …/go/bookmark ?
