COVID-19 Updates
We're here to help guide you through the admissions process during this time. You can monitor this page for admissions-related updates as they become available.
If you're unable to travel to campus for Fall 2021, don't worry, you have options!
You can register to take online courses in the fall. During your New Student Registration appointment, you will work with an advisor to schedule these courses. Please note, though, that we cannot guarantee you will have a full-time schedule.
UIUC is exploring Academic Bridge programs at partner universities. Students in these programs will remain registered and enrolled as UIUC students and will still have access to UIUC resources to actively support them throughout the Fall 2021 semester. If any Academic Bridge programs are available in your country and you are eligible, you will be sent an invitation to participate once more information is available.
You can also request to delay the start of your attendance at UIUC for up to two semesters. The delayed admission request form can be found in myIllini. If you're unsure whether this is the right path for you right now, accept your offer of admission by May 1 to secure a place in our class. Then, if you find you're unable to obtain a visa on time, no Academic Bridge programs are available, or there are not enough online courses for your major, you will be able to request a delay of admission later this summer.
