If I’m taking the last course for my intended major’s declaration criteria, can I submit my ICT Request now or do I have to wait?

If you’re taking the last course for your intended major’s declaration criteria (i.e. ECON 202 and MATH 220 for the Economics major) or taking the first course in your intended major (i.e. ANTH 103 for the Anthropology major) then you must wait until final grades post in those courses before submitting your ICT Request.  

Do I need to have my 4th level language requirement complete before transferring into LAS?

No, but you will need to take courses towards completion of the language requirement as soon as you’re in LAS.  

What if I am interested in a CS+X major?

The application period for CS+X majors is different and requires attendance at a special CS+X Info Session.

How long will it take for my ICT Request to be approved?

We try to take about 3 business days to review and process your request.  Watch your Illinois.edu email for updates from our office.  

Why is my “EGD” set at Spring 2024 but I plan to graduate in Spring 2023?

The “EGD” is the outer limit of your allowed time at Illinois, which is 10 semesters.  If you plan to complete all your degree requirements before then, that’s just fine!

I had James Scholar status in my previous college. Will that carry over into LAS?

If you are transferring in to the College of LAS and were a James Scholar in good standing within another college at U of I, you will be welcomed into the LAS Honors Program provided you meet our GPA requirements (all James Scholars in LAS must have a 3.50 to continue as James Scholars).

Please know that you must have already been a James Scholar in your previous college to ICT in to the LAS James Scholar Program. If you were not already a participating/certified James Scholar, you would need to self-nominate provided you meet our entry requirements.
