As an admitted student, you'll log in to your myIllini account as a "future student" using the same information you provided during the application process. Then, you can click on your application for admission to view and manage your personalized admitted student checklist.

Your admission was, in part, based on your schedule. Dropping any courses listed as a requirement for admission to your major won’t be approved.

Any request for a schedule change must be submitted via the Course Change Form through myIllini. When we review final transcripts, we check final grades as well as schedule changes. An unauthorized schedule change or drop in grades could jeopardize your admission.

Your application for admission is used to determine your eligibility for all merit-based scholarships and honors programs. You’ll be contacted about these as they're awarded.

You may also submit the Office of Student Financial Aid's supplemental application for merit- and need-based scholarships. Need-based aid requires submission of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). If you haven’t submitted your FAFSA yet, do so as soon as possible. If you have, note that we won't be able to confirm we've received it until March due to a delay in the Department of Education sending FAFSA information to schools. We hope to send out Financial Aid Notifications in mid-April. You can also check your financial aid status online.

For more information, contact the Office of Student Financial Aid at 217-333-0100.

Students with an alternative offer were strongly considered for their first choice; however, we simply didn’t have room for all qualified applicants.

University Housing uses a priority deadline to make hall and room assignments. We encourage you to meet the priority deadline of May 22 for fall enrollment. All contracts received by May 22 will be placed in random order, and assignments will be made in that order. Contracts received after the priority deadline will be placed in the order they’re received.

For spring enrollees, you can complete your housing contract 48 hours after accepting your offer of admission.

Fall enrollees will be notified in June as to which hall you’ve been assigned and will find out your roommate’s information in July for fall enrollment. Spring enrollees will receive this information from University Housing directly.
