访问ing and Non-Degree Seeking 学生
概述
A visiting student is one who does not wish to seek a degree at 伊利诺斯州 University. This is an "unclassified" status in which the student is not in a degree program.
Typically these are students who are taking classes at 伊利诺斯州 to transfer them to another institution or taking dual enrollment classes as a high school student. 另外, a visiting student may be establishing a GPA at 伊利诺斯州 in hopes of being admitted to a degree program at a later time.
如何申请
学生 who are in good academic standing at their current college or university are eligible to be visiting students. If the course you wish to take has prerequisites, you must prove that you meet them by submitting an official transcript.
访问ing students may want to determine whether a course will be available prior to applying for admission. 联系 Registrar Service Center at (309) 438-2188 寻求帮助.
学生 who have a bachelor degree must apply as a 访问ing Graduate Student.
非保密状态
If you attend 伊利诺斯州 as a visiting student, you will be considered unclassified, which is different than being admitted to a degree program at the University. Courses you take as an unclassified student count toward your grade point average at 伊利诺斯州; however, there is no guarantee the courses you take as an unclassified student will count toward your degree should you be admitted into a degree program in the future.
访问ing students are not eligible for financial aid.

研究生
上课
Only students admitted to 伊利诺斯州 as a degree student or a visiting student may take graduate classes. You should check to see whether or not the classes you want to take are available to you before submitting a 访问应用程序. Some departments do not permit visiting student enrollment and others, because of limited staffing or physical constraints, restrict access to certain courses to their degree students. 访问ing students will need to obtain a course permission/override to be eligible to register for any course at the University.
It is also recommended that you reach out to the 研究生协调员 overseeing the graduate course you wish to complete.
Using Credits Towards a Degree
访问ing students who later decide to pursue a degree at 伊利诺斯州 may petition that coursework taken as a visitor be accepted in meeting program requirements. The petition must be recommended by the program and granted by the Graduate School. Normally no more than 12 credit hours of visiting enrollment will be approved toward a degree but, under special circumstances, up to one-half of visiting credit hours may be applied. There is no guarantee or expectation that any coursework taken as a visitor will be accepted toward program degree requirements. All graduate courses taken as a visiting student will be computed into the graduate grade point average.
Connect With Your Program
If you plan to seek a graduate degree, be sure to discuss the pros and cons of visiting enrollment with the 研究生协调员 of the program to which you plan to apply.
访问ing graduate students are not degree students and are, 因此, not typically eligible for most forms of financial aid.
