Intercollegiate transfers

A change of college affiliation to LAS can be made roughly during the same time periods as curriculum and major changes within LAS. These ICT/curriculum change periods have been expanded in LAS to several weeks at midterm and at the beginning of each academic year. 

Please be advised that some variations in policy and procedures exist in other colleges on campus. Always consult directly with the intended receiving college for information and approval. Several LAS majors have special grade-point average or other criteria that must be met.  All students seeking transfer to any other LAS major must have completed at least one course in the intended major, with a minimum 2.00 major GPA. Before changing colleges, students will be required to have completed at least one year (one semester for transfer students) in their present college.

Policies and procedures

Students intending to transfer into LAS from another college at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign must view an informational video before applying online. After watching the video, you will receive an email containing a link to the ICT Request Form. 

Note: For changes effective Fall 2021 and beyond, courses used to satisfy declaration criteria must be taken for a letter grade, not PZ/NZ.

CS+X

While CS+X curricula are open for intercollegiate/interdepartmental transfer, students who are not directly admitted to a CS+X major must be admitted to a CS+X major by their sixth term of enrollment, including terms completed at other institutions of post-secondary education.

CS+X Information Sessions are required for students intending to apply to a CS+X major (including Math/CS and Stat/CS). After watching the required video and completing the CS+X Info Session Viewing Verification, you will receive an email containing a link to the LAS CS+X application.

Please note that the application period for CS+X majors is different than other LAS majors. Applications are accepted during the months of February and September; details are presented during CS+X information sessions. The next CS+X application period will be September 10 - October 4, 2024, and then February 10 - 28, 2025.
