How to Apply

Before enrolling in an online course, all students (even those not seeking a degree) must complete an application form and submit it to the Office of Admissions.

Undergraduate Study
Applicants with 30 or more semester hours and a cumulative GPA of 2.00 or higher on a 4.00 scale from any regionally accredited institution may be admitted as a UIS undergraduate. If you fall into this category, you are encouraged to have completed 39 hours of required general education courses prior to admission, but you must have completed three semester hours of English composition as a minimum requirement. If you have questions, please review the UIS General Education Requirements. Graduates of regionally accredited community colleges with an Associate of Arts or Science are considered to have met all general education requirements. All requests for exceptions should be directed to the Office of Admissions.

Graduate Study
Students must complete an application to UIS and have official transcripts submitted to the Office of Admissions in order to begin a graduate degree program. Full admission to graduate studies may be granted to students who have earned a baccalaureate degree with a minimum undergraduate grade-point average of 2.50 on a 4.00 scale and who have met all specific program requirements and prerequisite courses. Some programs may require higher grade-point averages. Conditional admissions may be granted to students who do not meet GPA requirements at the department's approval. Visit the Web site of your intended program for the most complete information.

Non-Degree Status
Both undergraduate and graduate students may take one or two courses each term as a non-degree student. Undergraduate non-degree students must clarify their status before exceeding 16 hours, and graduate students must do so before exceeding 12 hours.

Application forms, detailed admission requirements, and other useful information is available from the Admissions web site. If you cannot find what you need on the web, contact the Office of Admissions at 217-206-4847, toll-free at 888-977-4847, or via e-mail at admissions@uis.edu.
