The lllini Union
Introduction
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign was founded in 1867 as a state-supported,
land grant institution with a three-fold mission of teaching, research, and public service. During
its history, the University has earned a reputation as an institution of international stature. It
is recognized for the high quality of its academic programs and the outstanding facilities and
resources it makes available to students and faculty. Scholars and educators rank it among a
select group of the world's great universities.
THE CAMPUS
Located in the adjoining cities of Urbana-Champaign (pop. 100,000), approximately 130 miles
south of Chicago, the University and its surrounding communities offer a cultural and recreational
environment ideally suited to the work of a major research institution.
Close proximity by air, rail, bus, or car to Chicago and ready access to major cities on both
coasts through daily flights to and from the University's Willard Airport make it possible to
maintain the close contact with major cultural centers that are essential to the intellectual life
of an international university.
The University is a residential campus of classrooms, laboratories, libraries, residence halls,
and recreational and cultural facilities with 200 major buildings on the central campus of 705
acres. Nearby are the University's 1,493-acre Willard Airport, Robert Allerton Park, the
campus's 1,768-acre nature and conference center, and 2,400 acres of agricultural land, as well
as 3,700 acres of farmland elsewhere in Illinois which are used by the College of Agriculture
as experimental fields.
Nearly every facility on campus is accessible to the physically disabled, and the University's
programs and services for the disabled have served as a model worldwide.
COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS
Eight undergraduate colleges and one school offer 150 programs of study leading to a
baccalaureate degree. They are th6 Colleges of Agriculture, Applied Life Studies, Commerce
and Business Administration, Communications, Education, Engineering, Fine and Applied Arts,
and Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the School of Social Work. A certificate program is offered
by the Institute of Aviation. Postbaccalaureate students study in more than 100 fields through
the Graduate College and in professional programs through the Colleges of Law, Medicine,
and Veterinary Medicine. National surveys consistently rank the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign among the top ten institutions in many fields of study with several colleges and
departments ranked among the top five.
STUDENT BODY
There are approximately 36,000 students and 10,800 faculty and staff members in the University
community. Some 27,000 undergraduates (55 percent men, 45 percent women) typically from
every state in the nation and some 100 foreign countries, enroll each year; 96 percent of the
undergraduates are Illinois residents. Minority students comprise about 13 percent of the total
enrollment.
Undergraduate education is strongly emphasized, and admissions are very competitive. The
median ACT composite score of entering freshmen is 27, and more than 25 percent of these
students ranked in the top 3 percent of their high school class. The majority of transfer
students enter the University with a 4.0 grade-point average (A = 5.0).
Annually approximately 100 freshmen are selected to join the Campus Honors Program as
Chancellor's Scholars. The program fosters close, collaborative relationships between top
students and distinguished faculty through special honors sections, faculty mentors, and summer
research opportunities.
Most undergraduate students receive a baccalaureate degree after four years, and many go
on to advanced study in the humanities, the sciences, the social sciences, and various professional
fields. Typically, 80 percent of graduates who apply to law school are accepted; 65 percent
are accepted to medical school.
FACULTY
Scores of faculty are members ot the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National
Academy of Sciences, and the National Academy of Engineering. Seven scientists received the
National Medal of Science while on the faculty. Professor Emeritus John Bardeen won the
Nobel Prize in physics twice — the only person ever to do so. Twenty-six faculty members
have received the Presidential Young Investigators Award, established by Congress to support
research by faculty members near the beginning of their academic careers.
FACILITIES
The University's library is the third largest academic library in the nation with more than 7
million bound volumes and over 11 million total items. There are 38 departmental libraries
across the campus, in addition to the main Library and the Undergraduate Library.
Two premier scientific supercomputing centers, the Center for Supercomputing Research
and Development and the National Center for Supercomputing Applications, have established
the University as a recognized world leader in the fields of supercomputing architecture, design,
and applications. The centers are the natural extension of the University's pioneering role in
the computer field. PLATO, which was developed at the University, is the largest computer-
based instructional system in the world, and the $12.5 milion Project EXCEL, funded by IBM,
has created innovative models of computer-based instruction for undergraduate education.
Planning and construction continues on the Arnold O. and Mabel M. Beckman Institute for
Advanced Science and Technology. The campus received a $40 million gift from alumnus
Arnold O. Beckman and a matching gift of S10 million from the State of Illinois to establish
the interdisciplinary institute which will bring together researchers in the biological and physical
sciences in quest of pioneering discoveries in human and artificial intelligence. The Beckman
gift is believed to be the largest ever from an individual to a public university.
The campus is a major midwestern center for the arts. Krannert Center for the Performing
Arts, designed by alumnus Max Abramovitz, architect of New York City's Lincoln Center, is
a magnificent showcase for music, theatre, opera, and dance. Ellie McGrath, education editor
of Time magazine described Krannert as "arguably the best performing arts facilities in the
nation." The facility has four indoor theatres, an open air amphitheatre, and five major rehearsal
rooms. It is a major performance outlet for students in professional training programs in the
arts as well as an entertainment complex. More than 350 performances are presented there
each year.
There are three museums: the Krannert Art Museum, second only to the Art Institute of
Chicago in size and value of collections among public museums in Illinois; the World Heritage
Museum, housing collections of artifacts from cities and civilizations from all pans of the
world; and the Museum of Natural History, which has displays on early man, flowering and
nonflowering fossil plants, stuffed animals, and over 400,000 research specimens.
The Illini Union is a common meeting place for students, faculty, staff, and visitors to eat,
play, study, and relax. It contains cafeteria and dining facilities, guest rooms, art galleries,
reading and television rooms, billiards and electronic game rooms, bowling lanes, ticket and
check cashing counter, alumni offices, and a paperback book sales center.
The University's Intramural-Physical Education Building is one of the world's largest structures
for college-university intramural sports and recreational activities.
The Assembly Hall holds the distinction of being the world's second largest edge-support
dome. It has a permanent seating capacity of 16,000, and is used for Big Ten basketball games,
touring companies, concerts, conventions, convocations, and other activities.
Memorial Stadium, with a seating capacity of 76,000, is home for the Fighting Illini football
and track and field events.
Willard Airport services commercial, general, and private aviation, and houses the Institute
of Aviation. Located six miles southwest of campus, the airport is also a center for research,
education, and military aviation. The University of Illinois holds the only Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) Airman Examining (Pilot) Agency Certificate in the country, which permits
it to issue pilot certificates and ratings to its graduates on behalf of the FAA.
COURSES AND CLASS SIZE
Over 4,000 courses are available although some may not be offered every semester. About 73
percent of all class sections have fewer than thirty students; 49 percent have fewer than twenty.
ACADEMIC CALENDAR
The campus has an academic calendar of two sixteen-week semesters and one eight-week
summer session. A three-week program of intensive instruction called Intersession is held
between the spring semester and the eight-week summer session. The fall semester begins in
late August and ends in mid-December; the spring semester begins in mid-January and ends in
mid-May. The summer session extends from early June to early August. Classes are taught on
an 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. schedule; a few evening classes are conducted primarily for graduate
students.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
One of the distinct advantages of a large university is that students with varying interests can
find many avenues from expression. At the Urbana-Champaign campus, there are some 750
registered student organizations.
Approximately 25 percent of the undergraduate student body are actively affiliated with the
Greek system, the largest fraternity and sorority system in the nation with fifty fraternities and
twenty-five sororities.
All three branches of the Armed Services have ROTC units on campus.
Students have the opportunity to participate in performances by eleven different choral
groups, five bands plus the Marching Illini, three orchestras, five jazz bands, innumerable small
ensembles, and even a Russian-style balalaika orchestra. Illinois Opera Theatre stages four full-
length grand operas plus several one-act operas each year.
Athletics provide another avenue of enjoyment outside the classroom. The campus intramural
program is the largest in the nation with three-fourths of all students participating.
The campus is a member of the Big Ten Intercollegiate Conference, and in recent years its
athletic programs have achieved national stature in a number of men's and women's sports.
The Fighting Illini, in blue and orange, sponsors eleven men's teams and eight women's teams.
Men's intercollegiate sports include baseball, basketball, cross-country, fencing, football, golf,
gymnastics, swimming/diving, tennis, track, and wrestling. The women's program includes
basketball, cross-country, golf, gymnastics, swimming/diving, tennis, track, and volleyball.
CAMPUS VISITORS CENTER
Prospective students and parents are invited to visit the campus and participate in small group
information sessions at the Campus Visitors Center. The center is open between 9:00 a.m. and
4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding campus holidays. Presentations are made by
Admissions and Records staff, and arrangements can be made to meet with admissions
counselors, and representatives from specific academic units and the offices of financial aid and
housing. The Campus Visitors Center is located in the Levis Faculty Center, 919 West Illinois
Street, one block west of Lincoln Avenue in Urbana.
Student-conducted tours of the campus are available when classes are in session and weather
permits. Reservations are recommended and may be made by calling the Campus Visitors
Center, (217) 333-0824.

Since the information in this two-year catalog is subject to change, prospective applicants
should contact the Office of Admissions and Records at the address on the inside back cover
for admission requirements and applications for a specific term.
Admission counselors in 177 Administration Building are available for consultation on
weekdays, excluding campus holidays, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4:30
p.m. Appointments are recommended and can be made by calling (217) 333-0302. The Campus
Visitor's Center offers campus tours and informational sessions for prospective students and
their families. (See page 4.)
UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS OF STUDY
More than 150 programs of study — called curricula, fields of concentration, options, or
majors — are available to undergraduate students as indicated in the Admissions Chan that
follows this section. Detailed information about these programs appears in the college sections
of this catalog.
In addition to degree programs offered in the college, preprofessional education is offered
in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for advertising, dentistry, journalism, law, medical
dietetics, medical laboratory sciences, medical record administration, medicine, nursing, oc-
cupational therapy, pharmacy, physical therapy, social work, and veterinary medicine.
Five of the colleges — Agriculture, Applied Life Studies, Education, Liberal Arts and Sciences,
and Fine and Applied Arts — offer teacher education curricula.
The Urbana-Champaign campus is organized primarily to assist the full-time student, one
who is enrolled for at least 12 hours of credit each semester. Most students are required to
register for at least 15 or 16 semester hours (four or five courses) each semester, but a reduced
load may be authorized by their college because of special circumstances.
Enrollment as a nondegree student is limited in the spring and fall semesters. University
employees and residents of the community who wish to enroll in courses that are offered, only
Quadrangle with the lllini Union in the background.
10 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
at the University are given priority for nondegree enrollment. There is no restriction on the
number of nondegree students who may attend the eight-week summer session.
Since admission to each college and curriculum is carefully monitored to assure that no
more students are enrolled than the faculty and facilities can support, applicants may apply
for admission to only one of the eight undergraduate colleges, the School of Social Work, or
the Institute of Aviation, and may designate only one curriculum choice.
The applicant's choice of college and curriculum is particularly important because admission
requirements differ by college and curriculum, and, once admitted, course requirements for
students differ by college and curriculum.
Beginning freshmen who are undecided about an educational major in a particular college
may want to apply for the core curriculum in the College of Agriculture, the unassigned
curriculum in the College of Commerce and Business Administration, the general education
curriculum in the College of Education, or the general curriculum in the College of Liberal
Arts and Sciences. Students in these curricula do not have to declare a degree program until
the end of their sophomore year.
Because of enrollment restrictions, beginning freshmen are required to remain in the college
to which they have been admitted for at least two semesters of full-time study in the prescribed
freshman program to which admitted. Transfer students are obligated to remain in the college,
and possibly the curriculum to which admitted, for at least the first semester of enrollment.
Students on campus who wish to transfer to another college must meet the accepting college's
admission requirements and compete for any available spaces. Due to enrollment controls,
transfer to some programs is very competitive. For example, the College of Commerce and
Business Administration and the College of Engineering will consider only transfer students
with 60 hours of prerequisite course work. For unusual and extenuating circumstances, college
offices will consider individual requests to transfer from one college to another after one
semester in residence.

ADMISSION 15
School of Social Work
Beginning freshmen are not admitted. Since a student must have 45 semester hours to be eligible
to enter the School of Social Work, the beginning freshman applicant is advised to enroll in the
general curriculum of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for the first 45 semester hours and
then attempt to transfer.
Students may apply for admission after completion of 30 semester hours of college work, but they
must have completed 45 semester hours of transferable credit by the desired term of entry.
A grade-point average of at least 3.75 (A = 5.0) and evidence of interest in a professional career
in social work are required. Applicants with less than a 3.75 grade-point average will be considered
on an individual basis if they demonstrate strong career motivation and aptitude. See page 315.
Social work
COLLEGE OF LAW
The College of Law admits beginning students only in August. Minimum admission requirements
are a bachelor's degree from an accredited four-year college or university, a minimum grade-
point average of 3.5 (A = 5.0) in all course work taken, and a satisfactory score on the Law
School Admission Test. Other subjective criteria also may be used.
The College of Law has no specific prelegal course requirements for admission, but a basic
course in accounting is strongly recommended. Prelegal education for students interested in
the profession of law is on pages 14 and 236.
Additional information and admission applications are available from the College of Law,
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 209 Law Building, 504 East Pennsylvania Avenue,
Champaign, IL 61820.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Applicants seeking exceptions to these general requirements should pursue special admissions
as outlined on page 19.
Age
Applicants must be at least fifteen years of age by the date of desired enrollment.
High School Graduation
To be approved for admission, applicants must be graduates of a regionally accredited high
school, or a school in Illinois recognized by the state superintendent of education, or a school
elsewhere with a rating equivalent to full recognition. Graduates of other secondary schools
and nongraduates of secondary schools may be admitted under the provisions for use of the
General Educational Development Tests.
General Educational Development Tests (GED). The achievement of satisfactory scores on the
General Educational Development Test is acceptable in lieu of graduation from an accredited
high school. This test alone will not fulfill all of the college preparatory subject requirements.
A standard score of 35 on each of the five tests and an average standard score of 45 on all
five tests are the minimum scores needed to provide the following high school credit: 9
semesters of English, 8 semesters of social studies, 7 semesters of general science, and 6
semesters of miscellaneous. This is a total of 24 semesters (12 units) of college preparatory
subject matter and a total of 30 semesters (15 units) of high school credit. To be eligible to
take these tests, applicants must be eighteen years of age or have been out of school for at
least one year. Additional information is available upon request from the Office of Admissions
and Records.
To be used in lieu of a high school graduation, transcripts showing GED scores should be
sent by the testing center to the Office of Admissions and Records.
High School Credits
Applicants for admission to all curricula must present a total of at least 15 units of acceptable
secondary school work. Graduates of schools organized as three-year senior high schools,
including grades ten, eleven, and twelve, must have at least 12 units in the senior high school.
Credit earned prior to grade nine is acceptable if the transcript of credit, certified by the senior
high school, shows the credit as high school credit from grade eight. A unit course of study
16 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
in the secondary school is a course covering an academic year and including not less than the
equivalent of 120 sixty-minute hours of classroom work. Two hours of work requiring little
or no preparation outside the class are considered as equivalent to 1 hour of prepared classroom
work. Fractional units of the value of less than one-half are not accepted. Not less than 1
unit of work is accepted in a foreign language, elementary algebra, plane geometry, physics,
chemistry, or biology. The required 15 units must include the following:
1. Three units of English are required. Work offered to meet this requirement should be
composed of studies in language, composition, and literature, and require practice in
expository writing in all such work.
2. One unit each in algebra and plane geometry is required. General mathematics, college
preparatory mathematics, or other courses in mathematics may be accepted in lieu of algebra
and plane geometry, or more advanced courses, in cases where the content of the course
is essentially the same as that ordinarily included in the required course, as determined by
the Department of Mathematics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. When
such courses are not equivalent to the prescribed algebra and plane geometry or more
advanced courses, they will be accepted as elective credit.
3. The college preparatory subjects prescribed in the pattern specified for the curriculum which
the applicant desires to enter are presented in Table 1. Acceptable college preparatory
subjects are those defined in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this section and foreign language,
sciences, and social studies as described for the patterns.
4. Since the number of college preparatory units for all curricula is less than the 15 required
for admission, each applicant must present elective units selected from any of the high
school subjects which are accepted by an accredited school toward its diploma and which
meet the standards for accrediting. Courses in such fields as agriculture, art, commerce,
general science, home economics, industrial arts, and music are accepted as elective units
for admission.
College Preparatory Subject Requirements
Admission to each college and curriculum requires that applicants complete a specific number
of units in certain college preparatory high school subjects (see High School Credits on page
15.
The subjects required differ depending upon the college and curriculum selected by the
applicant. There are six different patterns, or combinations of subjects, designated by Roman
numerals I, II, III, IV, V, and VI in Table 1. Only patterns I, II, IV, and VI are currently used.
Applicants must have the courses under the "Required" column or their application will be
denied. The majority of successful applicants exceed the minimum course requirements and
have strong college preparatory backgrounds.
For transfer applicants who will have completed 30 or more semester hours of transferable
college credit by the date of enrollment at the Urbana-Champaign campus, the subject pattern
requirements are waived, except for admission to the College of Fine and Applied Arts. The
subject patterns required for admission to each college and curriculum are listed in the
Admissions Chart beginning on page 10.
A specific subject requirement may be waived under extenuating circumstances for otherwise
well-qualified applicants. An applicant or high school seeking a waiver of the subject pattern
requirement or a review of rank-in-class because of the applicant's high admission test scores
and exceptionally strong competition in college preparatory classwork should state the rationale
for requesting such action using the Background Statement section of the application.
Additional Admission Requirements
A few colleges and curricula have admission requirements in addition to the regular academic
standards. Instructions on how to fulfill these additional requirements are forwarded to students
soon after their applications are received. Students should be aware that additional time is
required to process applications for admission to curricula with additional admission
requirements. Students denied on the basis of additional admission requirements may find all
admission spaces taken in alternative programs at the time of notification. Thus, such
applicants should apply early and may also wish to apply to other institutions. The following
chart indicates the colleges and curricula with additional admission requirements.

English Competency
Minimum requirements for competence in English apply to all University students. Applicants
for admission may complete minimum requirements for competence in English by certifying
that the following requirements have been fulfilled in a country where English is the primary
language and in a school where English is the primary language of instruction:
Undergraduate college applicants. Graduation with credit for 3 units, or the equivalent, of
English from a secondary school; or successful completion of a minimum of two academic
years of full-time study at the secondary school or collegiate level immediately prior to the
proposed date of enrollment in the University.
Graduate and professional college applicants. Completion of at least two academic years of
full-time study within five years of the proposed date of enrollment in the University.
For applicants who do not meet the above requirements, evidence can be provided by
achieving a satisfactory score on a test of competence in English. The test(s) to be used and
the minimum score(s) shall be subject to approval by the University Committee on Admissions
with the advice of the University's Technical Committee on Testing. This requirement may be
waived upon agreement by the director of admissions and records and the dean of the college
concerned, if evidence of competence in English presented by the applicant clearly justifies
such action.
Physical Examination
New students may be required to present evidence of satisfactory physical and mental health
to the director of health services. Admitted applicants will receive a Student Health Report
form which they may use to report pertinent medical data to the director of the campus
Health Service. If students will be under the age of eighteen at the time they enroll, their
parents must sign a medical authorization for them to receive care at the McKinley Health
Center. Upon the advice of a health service physician, admission, readmission, or registration
of a student may be denied until the student is cleared by the McKinley Health Center.
Students transferring from the University of Illinois at Chicago should request that their
health report forms be transferred by their health center to McKinley Health Center.
Military personnel may have these forms completed by a base physician.
TUBERCULOSIS CONTROL
New and readmitted students are encouraged to present evidence of freedom from tuberculosis
at the McKinley Health Center. All new international students are required to complete a
tuberculosis screening at the health center before completing registration.
Evidence of freedom from tuberculosis is established by presentation of a University of
Illinois or public health agency certificate dated within the previous twelve months or by
undergoing the application of a tuberculin skin test at the McKinley Health Center during on-
campus registration with a negative interpretation by the health service 48 to 72 hours after
application. Persons who have a positive reading to this test should have a chest x-ray at the
health center. Persons with a history of positive reaction to the tuberculosis skin test will not
be skin-tested but will be offered a chest x-ray. (If a chest x-ray was done within the previous
ADMISSION 19
three months, no new chest x-ray may be made.) Additionally, if the skin test reading is
positive, the student will be asked to schedule an appointment to review his or her health
history.
SPECIAL ADMISSIONS POLICY
An applicant who is not otherwise eligible, and for whom evidence clearly establishes (1)
qualifications to do satisfactory work and (2) extenuating circumstances judged worthy of
special consideration, may have his or her application reviewed and may be admitted with the
approval of the director of admissions and records and the dean of the college concerned.
For experimental and special programs which provide academic support services, space may
be reserved for applicants of different qualifications, not to exceed ten percent of the entering
freshman class of the previous fall term on the campus concerned.
Appeals for special consideration after denial of admission are generally unsuccessful since
admission spaces usually have been filled by that time.
ADMISSION OR READMISSION DENIED BECAUSE OF MISCONDUCT
The University reserves the right to deny admission or readmission to any person because of
previous misconduct which may substantially affect the interest of the University, or to admit
or readmit such a person on an appropriate disciplinary status. The admission or readmission
of such a person will not be approved or denied until his or her case has been heard by the
appropriate disciplinary committee. This applies to a person not now enrolled in the University
who might apply for admission or readmission, or to a person who has preenrolled whether
or not he or she has paid a deposit. A favorable action of the appropriate disciplinary committee
does not abrogate the right of any dean or director to deny admission or readmission on the
basis of scholarship.
ADMISSION OF BEGINNING FRESHMEN
Deadline dates for filing complete applications for admission or readmission are given in the
following and other application calendars. These deadline dates apply as long as space remains
available in the desired curriculum. Applicants claiming exceptional circumstances which
justify special consideration, including reasonable accommodation of applicants' religious
beliefs, observances, and practices, should appeal in writing to the director of admissions and
records for an extension of filing deadline dates. Only rarely, however, are spaces available
by these late dates, and applicants are encouraged to apply during the periods indicated in
the application calendars.
A beginning freshman applicant is one who applies for admission while attending high school,
regardless of the amount of college credit earned, or one who has graduated from high school
but completed fewer than 12 semester hours or 18 quarter hours of transferable college
classroom credit by the desired term of entry. High school midyear graduates planning to
attend a collegiate institution before admission to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
for the fall term should apply as beginning freshmen during their last fall term in high school.
Such applicants are admitted on the basis of high school credentials and test results and may
complete more than 12 semester hours of transferable college classroom credit at another
institution before enrollment at Urbana-Champaign.

If admission is still possible, applications accepted for admission within a month of registration may
require late registration and a $15 late registration fee (amount subject to change).
Requirements
Admission of beginning freshmen applicants will be based on the completion of specific high
school subjects and on a combination of high school percentile rank and admission test score.
Those approved for admission must have at least a one-in-two (50 percent) chance of achieving
a 3.0 (C) average for one or more terms of the first academic year on the campus.
If the number of qualified applicants to a college or curriculum falls short of the admission
quota, those whose chances of achieving a 3.0 average are between a one-in-four and a one-
in-two chance may be admitted, provided the campus has made provision to help such applicants
improve their chances for success. If the number of qualified applicants to a college or
curriculum exceeds the admission quota, those best qualified will be admitted. "Best qualified"
will be determined by a combination of high school percentile rank and admission test score.
In determining the admission of those applicants near the boundary of the competitive applicant
pool, additional criteria may be considered. These additional factors are described in the
Background Statement section below.
In addition to all other requirements for admission, nonresidents should rank in the top
quarter of their high school class. If the admission quota exceeds the number of qualified
applicants, nonresidents may be admitted on the same basis as residents; if the number of
qualified applicants exceeds the admission quota, preference may be given to residents of
Illinois.
To assist prospective applicants in assessing their opportunities for admission, academic
guidelines based on previous years' admissions decisions are published annually in the application
materials. They are guidelines only. Final admission standards depend upon the number and
qualifications of applicants to each program.
ADMISSIONS TEST INFORMATION
Beginning freshman applicants, regardless of rank in class or length of time out of school, are
required to submit an admission test score, either the assessment administered by the American
College Testing (ACT) program, or the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) of the College Board.
Applicants will not complete their admission requirements until scores are received by the
Office of Admissions and Records in the form of an official score report sent directly from
the testing agency concerned. Complete information concerning the test, the dates of test
administration, and the location of testing centers may be obtained from high school counselors
or by writing the appropriate testing agency: American College Testing, Box 168, Iowa City,
I A 52240 or College Board, 45 Columbus Avenue, New York, NY 10023-6917.
ADMISSION 21
The highest ACT composite score or SAT total score (from a single test session) that is on
file will be used when the admission decision is made. Prospective applicants are urged to
complete an admission test in the spring of their junior year in high school.
APPLICATION DOCUMENTS
Beginning freshmen applicants should submit admission applications through their high school.
The documents needed to complete an application are listed on page 28.
BACKGROUND STATEMENT
Objective academic qualifications will be the major factors considered in admissions decisions.
The Office of Admissions and Records attempts to identify those applicants whose class rank
and admission test scores or transfer grade-point averages may underpredict their likelihood
of success, or those whose admission would add diversity to the educational and social
environment of the campus.
Applicants who believe their academic credentials do not adequately reflect their potential
may complete the Background Statement on the application. Unless applicants are close to
meeting the guidelines published for the college to which they are applying, the Background
Statement may have little impact on their admission decision. Students who attend a highly
selective high school for which a profile may not be on file with the Office of Admissions and
Records are urged to have their counselor attach their school profile to their transcript and to
request a review through the Background Statement. Among the factors which the Office of
Admissions and Records may consider in making decisions are whether the applicant (1) has
a physical handicap; (2) had a health problem which significantly affected, for a period of time,
an otherwise exceptionally good academic record; (3) is from an economically disadvantaged
environment; (4) is of an age group or has a cultural or ethnic background that will add
diversity to this campus; (5) has completed the most rigorous selection of courses available in
the high school; or, (6) has performed at a level which has brought state or national recognition
in a specific field of endeavor.
ADMISSION OF TRANSFER APPLICANTS
A transfer applicant is one who has (1) completed a minimum of 12 semester or 18 quarter
hours of transferable college classroom credit by the desired term of entry, and (2) who does
not meet the definition of a beginning freshman or a readmission applicant.
Policy
Admission of transfer applicants will be based on a combination of hours and content of
transferable credit and transfer grade-point average. The minimum transfer grade-point average
is 3.25 (C = 3.0); some curricula require a higher grade-point average. (See the Admissions
Chan, pages 10 to 15.) To assist prospective applicants in assessing their opportunities for
admission, transfer grade-point average guidelines are published annually in the application
materials. These are guidelines only. The final standards will depend upon the number and
qualifications of the applicants to each program. If the number of qualified applicants to a
college or curriculum exceeds the admission quota, those best qualified will be approved. "Best
qualified" will be determined by a combination of hours and content of transferable credit
and transfer grade-point average. In determining the admission of those applicants near the
boundary of the competitive applicant pool, additional criteria may be considered. These
additional factors are described in the Background Statement section on page 21. Applicants
who have had a significant break in their pursuit of an education and can demonstrate an
improved academic performance, or applicants for whom relocation from the Champaign-
Urbana community would present a major hardship, may wish to address these factors in the
Background Statement section of the application for admission.
Eligibility of transfer applicants with fewer than 30 semester hours of graded transferable
classroom credit is based upon (a) high school percentile rank and ACT or SAT test scores
and (b) grade-point average and content of transferable courses attempted.
If the number of qualified applicants exceeds the admission quota, priority may be given to
residents of Illinois. In addition, when applications from Illinois residents with similar qualifi-
cations are being considered, priority may be given to those applicants whose curriculum choice
22 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
is not available at the institutions from which they apply. Lower-division transfer applicants
may be restricted when campus space is limited.
Grade-point averages are calculated on the basis of all transferable courses attempted for
which grades are assigned and for which grade-point values can be determined. When a course
is repeated, the grade-point average is computed using both grades and all hours for the course.
Incomplete grades are accepted as defined by the initiating institution. Grades in other course
work completed, such as technical courses similar in content and level to courses taught at
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, may be used in the evaluation for admission
upon request of the college to which a student seeks admission.
Since the grade-point average used to establish admission qualifications is based on all
transferable course work attempted, applicants from institutions with "forgiveness" grading
policies (those which delete grades for course work attempted) may find their opportunities
for admission limited to special admission. If they are admitted and register, a transfer grade-
point average may not be recorded on their University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign record
since the grading policies of the transfer institutions and this campus are not comparable.

The documents needed to complete an application are listed on pages 28 and 29.

STUDENTS DROPPED OR PLACED ON PROBATION FOR DISCIPLINARY REASONS
Petitions for admission of transfer students who are on disciplinary probation or who have
been dropped from a previous collegiate institution for disciplinary reasons must be approved
by the appropriate subcommittee of the Senate Committee on Student Discipline. (See Admission
or Readmission Denied Because of Misconduct on page 19.)
Acceptance of Credit from Other Collegiate Institutions
Credit may be accepted for advance standing from another accredited university or college.
Accepted credit will be based on our evaluation of the primary transcript of record of each
institution attended. Duplicate credit will be counted in the grade-point average but excluded
from hours earned. A student who has passed a course at the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign may not be given credit for the same course taken elsewhere.
POLICY FOR THE ACCEPTANCE OF TRADITIONAL TRANSFER CREDIT
1. Admission of transfer students to the University of Illinois is based only on the transfer
course work which is similar in nature, content, and level to that offered by the University
of Illinois. Such courses are normally referred to as transfer or college-parallel work. Other
course work completed, such as technical courses similar in content and level to courses
taught at the University, will be used in evaluation for admission only upon the request of
the dean of the college to which the student seeks admission.
2. Transfer credit, as defined above, will be accepted at full value for admission purposes on
transfer to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign if earned in:
a. colleges and universities which offer degree programs that are comparable to programs
offered by the University of Illinois and (i) are members of or hold Candidate for
ADMISSION 23
Accreditation status from the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools or
other regional accrediting association, or (ii) are accredited by another accrediting agency
which is a member of the Council on Postsecondary Accreditation (COPA).
b. Illinois public community colleges which are neither members of nor holders of Candidate
for Accreditation from the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, but
which are approved and recognized by the Illinois Community College Board (ICCB) for
a period of time not to exceed five years from the date on which the college registers
its first class after achieving ICCB recognition.
3. Certain colleges and universities do not meet the specifications in 2 above, but have been
assigned a status by the University Committee on Admissions which permits credit to be
accepted on a provisional basis for admissions purposes on transfer to the University of
Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Transfer credit, as defined in 1 above, from such colleges
and universities is accepted only on a deferred basis to be validated by satisfactory completion
of additional work in residence. Validation through satisfactory work in residence may be
accomplished by earning at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, or other fully
accredited1 college or university, at least a 3.0 (A = 5.0) grade-point average (higher if
prescribed by the curriculum the student wishes to enter) in the first 12 to 30 semester (18
to 45 quarter) hours completed following transfer.
4. Credit, as specified in 1 above, transferred from an approved1 community or junior college
is limited only by the provision that the student must earn at least 60 semester or 90 quarter
hours required for the degree at the University or at any other approved1 four-year college
or university after attaining junior standing, except that the student must meet the residence
requirements that apply to all students for a degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign. When a school or college within the University requires three years of
preprofessional college credit for admission, at least the last 30 semester or 45 quarter
hours must be taken in an approved1 four-year collegiate institution.
5. In all cases, the precise amount of transfer credit which is applicable toward a particular
degree will be determined by the University college and department concerned.
POLICY FOR THE ACCEPTANCE OF NONTRADITIONAL TRANSFER CREDIT
Acceptance of credit awarded on bases other than collegiate classroom experiences will be
considered for transfer admissions purposes as follows:
1 . Test credit for admission as transfer credit. Students presenting test credit awarded elsewhere,
or test scores for admission or transfer credit purposes, will have that credit evaluated
against cut-off scores established for those examinations on the UIUC campus. Official score
reports should be submitted to the Office of Admissions and Records along with the
application for admission to the University. Students presenting test credit for which (A) no
UIUC campus policy exists, or (B) campus cut-off scores indicate no credit will be awarded,
may still be granted transfer credit if the student
a. is transferring at least 12 graded classroom semester hours of acceptable college-level
graded classroom course work from the institution or single campus in a multicampus
institution which awarded the credit by examination, and
b. has successfully completed advanced classroom course work at the institution awarding
the test credit in a course that is acceptable under UIUC transfer credit policies and
which can be considered as a sequential continuation of the material covered in the test.
After admission, students not awarded credit via this policy may attempt UIUC departmental
proficiency examinations to receive credit in those areas in which they claim competence.
2. Credit for military training. The completion of military service in the U.S. Armed Forces,
including basic or recruit training of six months or more, is accepted for advanced standing
credit of 4 semester hours of basic military science on presentation of evidence of honorable
discharge or transfer to the reserve component. Candidates for graduation who are still in
military service are entitled to the same credit. Credit in military science may also be granted
for other training completed in the service that is acceptable as the equivalent of ROTC
courses at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Such credit may be used for
admissions purposes.
3. Credit for education in the armed forces. The U.S. Armed Forces Institute (USAFI) was an
Colleges and universities meeting one or more of the specifications as listed in 2.
24 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
educational program which existed prior to May, 1974. The University considers for
advanced standing credit those USAFI courses of college level for which the student has
passed the appropriate USAFI end-of-course test or examination. Marine Corps Institute
courses also will be considered on the same basis. The University may consider for advanced
standing credit work completed in the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and
Navy specialized and technical schools. Criteria to determine acceptability include:
a. the specific degree requirements of the program of application,
b. similarity to courses at the campus of application, and
c. recommendation of the American Council on Education in the Guide to the Evaluation
of Educational Experience in the Armed Services.
All criteria are subject to the recommendations of the college to which the student seeks
admission and the department which teaches similar course work.
Credit earned in the College Training Programs of the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps,
and Navy, which functioned during World War II, is accepted on the same basis as other
credits from the colleges and universities where such credits were completed.
4. Credit earned in academic courses sponsored by noncollegiate organizations, such as
business, industry, and labor, not recognized by the April, 1977, Board of Trustees Policy.
Credit earned in such courses is not accepted. Such credit may be evaluated for potential
advanced standing in a specific degree program after admission and registration; and this
credit shall be subject to validation by proficiency examination or successful completion of
advanced course work. Hours of this type of credit may be reduced from that shown by
the originating agency. Criteria to determine acceptability for advanced standing include:
a. the specific degree requirements of the program of enrollment,
b. similarity to courses on this campus, and
c. recommendations of the American Council on Education in A Guide to Educational
Programs in Noncollegiate Organizations.
All criteria are subject to the recommendations of the appropriate college and department
that offers similar courses.
5. Credit for experiential learning. Experiential learning credits are not accepted for transfer
admissions purposes. A student who believes himself or herself to be knowledgeable in a
specific course may be granted credit through established proficiency procedures by the
college of enrollment and department offering similar courses after admission and registration.
University of Illinois at Chicago Transfers
Undergraduate transfer students between the University of Illinois at Chicago and the Urbana-
Champaign campus may be admitted to undergraduate programs on the opposite campus for
which spaces are available for transfers from other colleges and universities, provided they
meet the requirements of the program on the opposite campus for admission of on-campus
transfers. Generally, admission opportunities are better in all curricula if applicants have junior
standing (60 semester hours or 90 quarter hours). To be assured consideration as an intercampus
transfer, students currently enrolled at the Chicago campus should apply for transfer consid-
eration for the spring term between September 25 and November 1, and for the summer or
fall terms between February 1 and March 15. Intercampus transfers do not pay the $25
application fee, but they must submit all application documents required of transfer applicants
from other institutions.
Applicants are encouraged to go to the Chicago Office of Admissions and Records where
copies of official credentials will be enclosed with their application and where current enrollment
can be verified so that the application fee can be waived.
READMISSION
A readmission applicant is one who has previously registered on the campus as an undergraduate
degree candidate and (a) earned credit but not a degree or (b) withdrew prior to earning credit
and has not subsequently attended any other collegiate institution from which transfer credit
is acceptable for admission.
Applications for readmission are usually accepted until near registration time. Transcripts
must be sent directly from all institutions attended since the last term attended on this campus.
Readmission to the same academic program will be approved for applicants whose records
ADMISSION 25
are not encumbered and who (a) left the campus in good or probationary academic standing,
(b) left any other campus subsequently attended in good academic and disciplinary standing,
and (c) apply on or before November 1 for spring and March 15 for fall. Applicants must
submit a letter of petition if they (a) left on drop status, (b) left on probation and are seeking
readmission to a different academic program, or (c) were placed on "must petition" status by
their college.
Policy
The following policy statements apply to readmission applicants:
— Applicants who desire readmission to a college other than the college in which they were
previously enrolled may be readmitted only with the approval of the colleges concerned.
— Clearance by the McKinley health service is required for the readmission of former students
who are encumbered for medical reasons.
— Clearance by the Business Affairs Office is required for the readmission of former students
who are in debt to the University.
Application Documents
For information regarding application documents see page 28.
OTHER CATEGORIES OF ADMISSION
Second Bachelor's Degree Applicants
Second bachelor's degree applicants must meet the same requirements for admission as transfer
applicants for the first degree. In addition, they are required to submit a petition indicating
the reasons for their choice of program and campus, which must be approved by the director
of admissions and records and the dean of the college concerned. Where space in a college
or curriculum is inadequate, priority will be given to applicants seeking their first degree.
Nondegree Applicants
Nondegree admission and enrollment are restricted to participants in special programs and to
those with nondegree educational objectives which cannot be met at another institution.
Permanent residents of the Champaign-Urbana area are given priority for nondegree admission.
Nondegree applicants must choose one of the two campus enrollment options:
Summer session attendance only — Summer session only does not allow enrollment for the
fall or spring term; application for admission is necessary to be considered for the academic-
year enrollment pattern.
Academic year — Fall and spring semesters with summers optional.
Applicants holding a bachelor's degree who desire to take any 300-level course for graduate
credit or any 400-level course must apply for graduate nondegree status, regardless of the level
of other courses in which they desire to enroll. Graduate applicants should complete the
"Combined Application for Admission or Readmission to the Graduate College and Application
for Graduate Appointment."
Prospective undergraduate nondegree applicants should specifically request the Undergraduate
Nondegree Admission Application Folder.
Applicants for the academic year with no prior credit at the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign must submit a transcript showing their highest level of academic achievement.
Applicants who have earned prior credit at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
must submit a transcript showing course work completed since last enrollment at this campus,
if any.
Nondegree students are subject to the following restrictions:
— Nondegree undergraduate students are assessed tuition at the upper-division rate.
— Course enrollment requires the approval of the department offering the course and the
college of enrollment at the beginning of each semester.
— The college has the privilege of terminating a continuing nondegree student's enrollment
before the student's registration for any term.
26 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
— Enrollment is limited to part-time status (less than 12 credit hours of course work in any
semester).
— Nondegree students are ineligible for advance enrollment and registration by mail.
— Registration for the fall or spring term is not permitted until the fourth day of classes. The
late registration fine will be waived for undergraduate nondegree students registering the
fourth and fifth days of classes.
— Registration after the fifth day of classes requires the written approval of the dean of the
college of enrollment.
— The same grading system is applicable to both degree and nondegree students. Credit earned
on nondegree status will not be applicable to a degree except by subsequent admission to
degree status.
— Undergraduates admitted for summer session only will not be permitted to register for 400-
level courses or for graduate credit in 300-level courses. Students who wish to obtain
graduate credit for courses taken on nondegree status must apply through the Graduate
College.
— To be considered for degree-status enrollment, nondegree-status students must reapply for
admission.
— Nondegree students admitted to a college for summer to continue in the fall have the
option of registering for summer and continuing in the fall, or registering initially for fall.
SUMMER SESSION
The Urbana-Champaign campus conducts an eight-week summer session offering undergraduate
courses for both degree and nondegree candidates.
Continuing Students
Undergraduate students who completed the immediately preceding spring semester at Urbana-
Champaign and who are eligible to continue in the same college need not apply for admission
to the summer session. Registration materials for the summer session are produced automatically
for them.
Undergraduate students enrolled at Urbana-Champaign who were dropped for academic
reasons at the end of the spring semester and who desire to continue in the following summer
session only as nondegree candidates need not apply for admission to the summer session.
They need to be released by their former college to the dean of the summer session who must
approve their enrollment. Students wishing reinstatement to a degree program for the following
fall semester must petition the college of desired enrollment. No application is necessary.
Students dropped for academic reasons at the end of the spring semester who seek
reinstatement to the same or a different college for the following summer session need not
apply. They need to petition the dean of the college of desired enrollment for reinstatement.
If reinstated, successful completion of the summer session will allow continuation in the fall
semester.
Undergraduate students whose last enrollment at Urbana-Champaign was the fall semester
preceding the summer session or earlier must reapply for admission.
Candidates for Degrees
Freshman, transfer, or readmission applicants who wish to be admitted to the summer session
and to continue as degree candidates in the fall semester must meet the same admission
requirements as students applying for the fall semester. Such applicants should indicate on the
application form that they are applying for admission in June to continue in the fall. Detailed
admission requirements and application procedures for undergraduates are contained in each
application packet.
Applicants for summer to continue in the fall should be aware that fall-term admission
spaces have been filled in most academic programs long in advance of the summer session
only application deadline. Information on programs open for admission can be obtained from
the Office of Admissions and Records.
ADMISSION 27
Nondegree Students
This section deals only with admission to the eight-week summer term as a nondegree student.
Approval ot admission or readmission as a nondegree student to the summer session only
does not allow enrollment in the fall or spring. Students who were admitted to the summer
session only as nondegree students and who later wish to enter one of the colleges of the
University as degree or nondegree students must apply for admission in the usual manner and
satisfy requirements in effect at the time of application. Persons admitted as nondegree
undergraduate students to the summer session only are not assigned to any college or curriculum.
Undergraduate nondegree applicants for admission to the summer session only may be
approved by the director of admissions and records or by the Summer Session Office under
one of the following conditions:
— High school graduates who qualify for admission under minimum rank-test score combi-
nation requirements, but who were not admitted under competitive rank-test score com-
bination requirements in effect for the fall semester, may be admitted as nondegree students
for the summer session only.
These minimum rank-test score requirements (known as campus minimums) are available
from the Office of Admissions and Records the September preceding the summer term for
which admission is sought.
— Former University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign students who have not graduated from
the University may be admitted as nondegree candidates if approved by the director of
admissions and records through release from their former college. Students on drop or
probationary status must petition the Summer Session Office for admission as nondegree
candidates. If approved, they will be admitted on probation for that one summer session
only.
— Undergraduate students enrolled in other institutions may enroll in the summer session as
nondegree candidates if they are eligible to return to the collegiate institution last attended.
— Other persons, eighteen years of age or over, who have never attended a collegiate institution
but who give evidence that they possess the requisite background and ability to pursue
profitably courses for which they are qualified, may enroll in the summer session as nondegree
candidates.
Students who have been approved for admission in the fall semester will be authorized to
begin in the immediately preceding summer session if they notify the Office of Admissions and
Records of their intent to enroll in the summer session.
APPLICATION DATE
All applicants for admission as nondegree candidates to the summer session only may submit
an application on or after March 1.
APPLICATION DOCUMENTS
All nondegree candidate applicants must submit:
— A completed admission application form. This form is available from and should be returned
with the required supporting credentials to the Office of Admissions and Records.

and who are in good standing at the last school attended, and to persons eighteen years of
age or over whose applications are approved by the head of Guided Individual Study. Applications
from students who have been dropped from the University of Illinois or any other collegiate
institution will be considered only upon the recommendation of the authorities of the campus
or institution from which the student was dropped. For further information, write to Guided
Individual Study, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 104 Illini Hall, 725 South Wright
Street, Champaign, IL 61820.
LISTENERS OR VISITORS
Students enrolled at the Urbana-Champaign campus who desire to attend a class as listeners
or visitors must obtain the written permission of the instructor of the class and the approval
of the dean of their college. Persons who have never been registered students at the Urbana-
Champaign campus must obtain the required approval from the dean of the college in which
the course is offered. Former students not currently registered must obtain approval of the
dean of the college in which they were last registered. Former students are not permitted to
attend classes as visitors while on dropped status.
— Visitors are not permitted in laboratory, military, physical education (other than theory), or
studio classes.
— Persons registered for a full program of courses (12 semester hours or 3 units) may visit
other courses without additional charges.
— Persons not registered or registered for less than a full program are charged a $15 visitor's
fee for each course attended.
— The visitor's fee is waived for persons sixty-five years of age or older.
— Students holding scholarships, tuition waivers, or staff appointments generally may audit
University courses without charge.
For additional information, contact the Office of Admissions and Records.
APPLICATION DOCUMENTS
All credentials presented for admission or readmission become the permanent property of the
University and are not subsequently released to the student or to another individual or
institution. Credentials are not held for reconsideration of admission to subsequent terms.
All Applicants
Applicants for admission must submit:
— A completed admission application form. Admission application forms are available from
the Office of Admissions and Records at the address on the inside back cover.
— A $25 ($35 for international students) check or money order (amount subject to change),
payable to the University of Illinois, in payment of the nonrefundable application processing
fee. The University is not responsible for cash sent through the mail. Students readmitted
as degree candidates and direct transfer applicants from the University of Illinois at Chicago
are exempt from payment of this fee. Refer to Application Fee and the exemptions on
pages 54 and 55.
In addition, applicants must submit, or have submitted, all the credentials listed below for
their appropriate category of admission.
ADMISSION 29
Freshman Applicants
Freshman applicants should submit applications through their high schools. All freshmen (see
definition on page 19) must submit:
— A completed admission application; and
— An official high school transcript sent directly to the Office of Admissions and Records
from the high school showing the following:
Course work completed;
The date of the applicant's graduation;
The applicant's numerical rank in and size of his or her graduating class. Since it is the
policy of the University to accept for admission the academically best qualified of applicants
competing for limited spaces, the University needs an objective measure of academic
qualification which is comparable to measures used by other high schools. Descriptive
statements are generally not comparable from school to school and probably will work to
the applicant's disadvantage unless accompanied by a numerical class rank. Therefore, high
school personnel are urged to provide a numerical class rank or substitute ranking. Students
from three-year senior high schools should request that certification of work taken in the
ninth grade be included on or with the transcript. (See page 15.) Eighth-grade work for
high school credit also should be included; and
— An official report of their admission test score (ACT or SAT) sent directly to the Office of
Admissions and Records from the testing agency. (See Admissions Test Information on page
20.)
Freshman applicants who have completed some college-level course work should ask that
a transcript of that work be sent directly from the collegiate institution attended before
enrollment.
Transfer Applicants
All transfer students (see definition on page 21) must submit:
— A completed admission application; and
— An official high school transcript received directly from the high school of graduation; and
— Official transcript(s) of all college work attempted sent directly to the Office of Admissions
and Records from the institution(s) attended.
Transfer students with less than 30 semester hours of graded transferable classroom credit
at the time of submission of the application must submit ACT or SAT test scores sent directly
from the testing company and rank in high school class sent directly to the Office of Admissions
and Records from the high school.
Readmission Applicants
All readmission students (see definition on page 24) must submit:
— A completed admission application; and
— An official transcript sent directly to the Office of Admissions and Records from each
collegiate institution at which course work was attempted since last attendance at the
Urbana-Champaign campus, if applicable.
ADMISSION OF FOREIGN STUDENTS
The Office of Admissions and Records is authorized to decide which students shall be classified
as foreign according to the following definition: A person who is a citizen or permanent
resident alien of a country or political area other than the United States and has a residence
outside the United States to which he or she expects to return and either is, or proposes to
be, a temporary alien in the United States for educational purposes is classified as a foreign
student. For admission purposes, refugees-parolees and conditional entrants are classified as
foreign and shall meet all requirements imposed upon foreign students except for the certification
of financial resources.
30 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Admission Requirements
Admission is competitive, and preference is given to applicants who are judged to have the
best potential for academic success at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Minimum
requirements for admission are:
— Satisfaction of University minimum requirements in terms of age, high school graduation,
high school units, and health; and the minimum requirements in terms of high school
subjects prescribed for admission to a particular college and curriculum. (See General
Requirements for Admission on page 15.)
— Satisfaction of the requirement for admission to any curriculum for which an additional
requirement is indicated — such as an interview, aptitude test, or audition. (See page 16.)
— Satisfaction of the University requirement for English competency. (See English Competency
Requirement below.)
— Adequate financial resources. (See Financial Verification Requirement on page 30.)
ENGLISH COMPETENCY REQUIREMENT
Evidence of English proficiency is required of students who request consideration for admission.
This evidence is provided by a satisfactory score on the Test of English as a Foreign Language
(TOEFL). Applicants are exempt from this test if they have fulfilled one of the following
requirements in a country where English is the primary language and in a school where English
is the primary language of instruction:
Undergraduate college applicants. Graduation with credit for 3 units, or the equivalent, of
English from a secondary school; or successful completion of a minimum of two academic
years of full-time study at the secondary school or collegiate level immediately prior to the
proposed date of enrollment in the University.
Graduate and professional college applicants. Completion of at least two academic years of
full-time study within five years of the proposed date of enrollment in the University.
The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is administered several times each year
at many locations throughout the world. To make arrangements to take the TOEFL, write
directly to the TOEFL Application Office, Box 899-R, Princeton, NJ 08541, U.S.A., or contact
the nearest U.S. embassy, consulate, or U.S. Information Service office. Applicants who have
already taken the TOEFL should request the TOEFL office to send their scores to the Office
of Admissions and Records immediately. For admission purposes, TOEFL scores are valid for
only two years prior to the proposed term of entry. If the TOEFL score is acceptable but
indicates the need for further English study, a placement test will be required upon arrival at
the University. On the basis of the placement test scores, applicants may be required to enroll
in noncredit English courses and to take a reduced academic load.
In cases where TOEFL testing dates are not available prior to the desired term of entry, the
University will arrange for substitution of the test given by the English Language Institute
(ELI), Testing and Certification Division of the University of Michigan. Complete instructions
to arrange for the ELI examination will be provided by the Office of Admissions and Records
to each applicant for whom it is required. Final admission status is determined after the test
results have been received.
The minimum cut-off score on the TOEFL is 520, and 84 on the ELI. The English requirement
for graduation is explained on page 78.
FINANCIAL VERIFICATION REQUIREMENT
In order to determine eligibility for a Certificate of Visa Eligibility (Form 1-20 or IAP-66), it is
necessary for foreign applicants to submit complete and accurate information regarding their
source of financial support. This information is required in compliance with regulations of the
U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service. Current information and certification also are
required of foreign applicants transferring from institutions within the United States. Financial
resources must be documented for the entire length of time required to earn a degree. Expenses
for the 1986-87 academic year were estimated at $12,490, excluding summer session tuition
and fees. These figures are subject to change without notice and are expected to increase
yearly. Current estimated expenses may be obtained by writing to the Office of Admissions
and Records.
Prospective students who cannot document the availability of sufficient resources will be
denied admission.
ADMISSION 31
University financial aid funds are extremely limited and are available only to applicants in
specific exchange programs. Individual requests for financial aid cannot be considered.
Application Dates
Undergraduate applicants are urged to submit admission applications and supporting documents
(TOEFL, transcripts, and financial certification) approximately one year prior to the desired
term of entry. Competition is extremely keen, and late applicants jeopardize their opportunity
for admission. To have the best chance for admission, summer and fall applicants should
submit applications and all supporting credentials no later than November 15 of the preceding
year. Fall and summer applicants may compete for a limited number of spaces if their
applications and supporting documents are received by February 15. Applicants for spring are
urged to submit complete applications one year in advance; the absolute deadline for spring
application is November 1 immediately preceding the spring semester. Complete applications

Precollege Programs
PROGRAMS FOR FRESHMEN 32
PROGRAMS FOR TRANSFER AND READMITTED STUDENTS 33
PARENTS' PROGRAM 33
PROGRAMS FOR FRESHMEN
Freshman applicants accepting admission for the fall semester are strongly encouraged to
participate in the Precollege Programs. The Precollege Programs include placement testing and
academic orientation and advance enrollment for fall classes during June and July. The
Information for Admitted Students brochure, which fully explains the programs, is sent to
each admitted applicant. Freshmen entering in the fall semester who do not participate in the
placement testing program and summer orientation/advance enrollment program must complete
their required testing, academic advising, and class scheduling during the week immediately
preceding the start of classes. Information about activities for new students is sent to all
students before their arrival on campus.
Precollege Programs are not available for freshmen entering the University during the spring
semester; they must complete required testing, academic advising, and registration during the
week immediately preceding the start of classes.
Testing
During March, April, and May, beginning freshmen who have been admitted to the fall semester
come to either the Urbana-Champaign campus or the University Center of the University of
Illinois at Chicago campus to participate in a one-day program of required testing. The tests
that must be taken during this one day on campus are: the Rhetoric Essay Test and placement
tests in mathematics, chemistry, and foreign languages. These placement tests must be taken
by admitted students if they had these subjects in high school but have not received college
credit for them, and if they intend to pursue these subjects either as required or elective
courses at the University.
Students who live outside of Illinois and more than 250 miles from Champaign-Urbana have
the option of completing their testing as part of a two-day program during summer advance
enrollment. Such students should consult the Information for Admitted Students brochure for
additional information about the schedule and arrangements for their on-campus summer
sessions.
Freshmen students who fail to complete all required spring testing will be assessed a $25
late fee (amount subject to change) to take the tests immediately preceding the start of classes
if they are residents of Illinois and their Notice of Admission to the University is dated prior
to May 1.
Placement tests are designed to help determine which course a student is best prepared to
begin with in a particular subject area. Several introductory-level courses are generally available
to students in each subject area. It is to a student's advantage to enroll in a course which is
neither too difficult nor too easy relative to his or her high school preparation. Placement test
scores are used for initial placement and are not recorded on the student's official academic
record. Requirements for placement testing vary by college and curriculum. The Information
for Admitted Students brochure contains a full description of required and optional testing.
Academic Advising and Orientation/Advance Enrollment
Students who have completed the testing required by their college of enrollment may participate
in the orientation/advance enrollment program conducted at the Urbana-Champaign campus
in June and July. During the one day that students are on campus for this program, they meet
with an academic adviser who assists them in selecting a schedule of courses for the fall
semester which satisfies college and curriculum degree requirements.
Since the results on the placement tests are used by the colleges and academic departments
concerned to evaluate students' achievement levels and to assist them in arranging their class
schedules, freshmen must complete all testing required by their colleges before they can
PRECOLLEGE PROGRAMS 33
participate in the summer program. Students whose colleges have no required testing may
participate in the summer program without completing the spring testing program.
Beginning freshmen who participate in the summer orientation/advance enrollment program
have top priority in the scheduling of course requests for the fall semester. Interested students
also have the opportunity to audition for band and choral organizations on the day of their
advance enrollment.
PROGRAMS FOR TRANSFER AND READMITTED STUDENTS
New transfer and readmitted students have the opportunity to advance enroll during the
summer for the fall semester. These students receive details of the advance enrollment program
in the Information for Admitted Students brochure mailed with their Notice of Admission.
PARENTS' PROGRAM
Parents are cordially invited to accompany their son or daughter on the day of advance
enrollment and to participate in the informational meetings.

Because of the comprehensive nature of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign,
arrangements for superior students differ among the various colleges and departments. Generally
speaking, superior students are able to enter special courses or special sections of courses as
freshmen and sophomores and are encouraged as juniors and seniors to participate in special
programs for majors offered by the many departments. For details of these arrangements, see
the descriptions in the college sections of this catalog.
Policies and procedures regarding placement and proficiency examinations, the College-Level
Examination Program (CLEP), and the Advanced Placement Program are published in the
current edition of the brochure, Placement and Proficiency Examinations, available at college
offices or by writing to the Measurement and Evaluation Division, Office of Instructional and
Management Services, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 307 Engineering Hall, 1308
West Green Street, Urbana, IL 61801, telephone (217) 333-3490.
ADVANCED PLACEMENT PROGRAM
The Advanced Placement Program, administered by the College Entrance Examination Board,
is designed for high school students who are about to enter college and wish to demonstrate
their readiness for courses more advanced than those usually studied in the freshman year.
Advanced classes are offered in many high schools in one or more of the following subjects:
art history, art studio, English language and composition, English literature and composition,
French language, French literature, German language, German literature, Latin, Spanish language,
Spanish literature, biology, chemistry, mathematics (calculus), physics, music literature, music
theory, and social studies (American history and European history). There is a national
examination in each subject, administered in May by the Educational Testing Service, which
is designed to measure the competence of students in terms of the point at which college
study in that subject should begin. The University encourages high schools and their outstanding
students to participate in this program.
Examinations are prepared and graded by national committees of high school and college
teachers. They are graded on the following scale: 5, high honors; 4, honors; 3, creditable; 2,
pass; and 1, fail. Grade reports are sent to the universities each student specifies at the time
of the examination. Each department within the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
SPECIAL OPPORTUNITIES 35
has the option of granting, or not granting, college credit and advanced placement on the basis
of the board's grade.
Transfer students should refer to the Policy for the Acceptance of Nontraditional Credit
on page 23 for the policy on accepting credit earned through the Advanced Placement Program.
Specific credit recommendations for beginning freshmen at the Urbana-Champaign campus

such examination scores evaluated should request their high school to forward an official score
transcript to the Division of Measurement and Evaluation, University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign, 307 Engineering Hall, 1308 West Green Street, Urbana, IL 61801.
PROFICIENCY EXAMINATIONS
Proficiency examinations are offered in most courses open to freshmen and sophomores. A
student may take proficiency examinations in more advanced undergraduate courses on
recommendation of the head or chairperson of the department and approval of the dean of
the student's college. Departmental proficiency exams are administered in unscheduled individual
sessions or scheduled group sessions during the semester. Departmental offices can provide
information regarding test date, place of administration, type of examination, and references
that might be used when preparing for examinations. Course descriptions and prerequisites are
listed in the Courses Catalog. (See the inside back cover of this publication for locations
where the Courses Catalog may be obtained.) Proficiency examinations are generally given
without cost to the student, but a fee may be charged to defray the cost of proficiency
examinations prepared by agencies outside the University.
All regulations governing proficiency examinations will be applied in the context that the
University must reasonably accommodate students' religious beliefs, observances, and practices
in regard to scheduling of proficiency examinations if the student informs the person responsible
for the scheduling of such examinations of the conflict within one week after being informed
of the examination schedule. Any student may appeal an adverse decision.
An enrolled undergraduate student who passes a proficiency examination is given credit
toward graduation for the amount regularly allowed in the course (1) if it does not duplicate
credit counted for admission to the University or credit earned through some other testing
program and (2) if it is acceptable in the student's curriculum. No official record is made of
failures in these examinations, but some departments may keep records to prohibit the student
from retaking the examinations. General campus policy information regarding proficiency
examinations can be found in the Code on Campus Affairs and Regulations Applying to All
Students.
Transfer students should consult page 22 for the policy on acceptance of proficiency credit
for admission purposes.
Course credit is not awarded on the basis of the Proficiency Examination Program (PEP)
administered by the American College Testing Program (ACT).
UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
COLLEGE-LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM (CLEP)
This program exists for the purpose of awarding proficiency credit, or otherwise recognizing
college level competence, achieved outside the college classroom. Two types of tests are
available: (1) general examinations cover the broad content of a study which might be expected
to be covered by several introductory level courses and (2) subject matter examinations cover
the specific content of a single college course. Credit can be earned and will be recognized by
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for some CLEP General Examinations, but
credit is not awarded for any of the CLEP Subject Matter Examinations.
Most students must fulfill general education requirements for degree purposes in four areas:
humanities, social science/history, biological science, and physical science. CLEP General
Examinations in Humanities, Social Science and History, and Natural Sciences (subtests in
biological science and physical science) can be used to earn a waiver of the corresponding
general education requirement, or a part of it, and to earn degree credit. Credit is not awarded
by the University for scores from the CLEP General Examinations in English Composition or
Mathematics. CLEP tests provide an opportunity for students to demonstrate knowledge in a
general subject matter area which is as thorough as that required of a graduate who has not
majored in that particular area. General education requirements are designed to ensure that
graduates of the University are generalists as well as specialists. The University recognizes that
this general knowledge may have been acquired by entering students through high school
work, independent study, extracurricular reading, projects, or work experience. CLEP General
Examination scores can be used to earn 3 or 6 credit hours and waiver of all or part of the
requirement in each of the four general education areas. College policies vary in terms of the
tests that are acceptable for earning credit and waiver, and in terms of the scores required for
partial or complete waiver of a requirement.
Students may take CLEP exams at any CLEP National Testing Center designated by the
Educational Testing Service (ETS), Box 966, Princeton, NJ 08540. Official score reports should
be sent by ETS to Coordinator, Placement and Proficiency Testing, University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign, 307 Engineering Hall, 1308 West Green Street, Urbana, IL 61801. Locations
of CLEP National Testing Centers and test administration dates may be obtained by writing
to ETS, or by inquiring at most college and high school counseling offices.
CLEP test scores earned by Urbana-Champaign beginning freshmen, including students with
less than 12 semester hours of transferable classsroom credit attempted at other collegiate
institutions, are evaluated for credit according to norms established for the campus. Transfer
students should refer to the Policy for the Acceptance of Nontraditional Transfer Credit on
page 23 for the policy on accepting credit earned through CLEP examinations.
CLEP examination scores reported by the Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education
Support (DANTES) testing centers will be evaluated against the same criteria which are applied
to continuing UIUC students.
CAMPUS HONORS PROGRAM
The Campus Honors Program offers special challenges and opportunities to some of the most
talented and highly motivated of the University's students. The program, under the sponsorship
of the vice-chancellor for academic affairs, is designed to foster close, collaborative relationships
between top students and distinguished faculty. This collaboration occurs through the small
classes which characterize the program, through a faculty mentor system for sharing academic
and research interests, and through the many informal contacts encouraged by the program's
co-curricular offerings. The consistent aim is to encourage breadth and excellence from the
outset of the student's college career, and to encourage close interaction with role models
who are at the cutting edge of their academic disciplines.
Students in the Campus Honors Program are designated "Chancellor's Scholars," and this
designation will appear on their transcript. Students who meet program requirements will
continue as Chancellor's Scholars during their entire undergraduate career. Students admitted
to the Honors Program may enroll in any undergraduate curriculum and are encouraged to
participate in the specialized honors programs established at the college and departmental
levels.
SPECIAL OPPORTUNITIES 39
Courses
Two types of honors courses are offered: honors sections of regular courses and special honors
seminars. These courses cover a wide range of disciplines and are intended to satisfy some of
the general education requirements of each college. The courses are designed especially for
students in the Campus Honors Program and are taught by some of the University's most
outstanding faculty. To ensure close faculty supervision and maximum student-faculty inter-
action, small class sizes are maintained.
During the junior and senior years, students will concentrate on courses within their major
department. However, cross disciplinary interactions will be fostered by special seminars that
focus on the major issues facing society today.
Faculty Mentors
Each honors student is assigned a faculty mentor from the student's major field of interest.
The mentors introduce students to the intellectual standards, methodologies, and historical
development of their chosen academic discipline, and they provide advice and guidance about
utilizing the vast academic resources of the University. Ideally the same faculty mentor works
closely with the student through all four years, including planning for advanced study or a
career. However, the Honors Program will accommodate students who wish to change their
major or want to have a faculty mentor from a different discipline.
Special Opportunities
Other opportunities and resources provided by the program include:
— Special formal and informal interactions with distinguished scholars and performing artists
provided through seminars, receptions, brown bag lunches, and dress rehearsals at Krannert
Center for the Performing Arts.
— Special tours of the University of Illinois Library, Krannert Art Museum, supercomputing
centers, and other specialized facilities.
— Honors House, a centrally located honors student center with a lounge, seminar, and
meeting rooms.
— Priority registration for classes.
— Opportunities for participation in ongoing faculty research.
— Small grants to fund student research projects.
— Access to personal computers as well as a specialized PLATO notesfile (a University-
developed interactive computer environment).
— Graduate-status access to the University of Illinois Library, the third largest academic library
in the United States.
For additional information or to obtain an application form, contact: Campus Honors
Program, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 1205 West Oregon Street, Urbana, Illinois
61801; (217) 244-0922. For full consideration, completed applications should be received by
February 1 for admission the following fall.
EDMUND J. JAMES UNDERGRADUATE HONORS PROGRAMS
Undergraduate Honors Programs, named for one of the University's distinguished presidents,
Edmund J. James, provide a number of special curricular opportunities to academically talented
undergraduate students. Designation by the University as a James Scholar recognizes students
of extraordinary ability and achievement. It entitles students to certain academic privileges,
including the extended use of library facilities, and charges them with the responsibility for
seeking sustained intellectual achievement throughout their undergraduate careers. James Scholar
honors students are characterized by outstanding academic records; high general aptitudes for
college work; and reputations for seriousness of purpose, persistence, and self-discipline in
educational endeavors.
Students electing to participate in the program may enroll in any undergraduate curriculum;
unusual academic arrangements are open to James Scholar honor students in all courses of
study. These arrangements include provision of honors courses and sections, special seminars,
and interdisciplinary colloquia. In addition, James Scholars are encouraged to pursue individual
scholarly interests through independent study and research projects. Administrative coordination
40 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
of all undergraduate honors programs is currently conducted by the Office of Admissions and
Records.
There is no monetary award associated with the designation, and students who need financial
assistance should apply to the Office of Student Financial Aids.
Nomination Procedures
Academic requirements for participation in the program are determined by the respective
colleges. Undergraduates in most colleges may "self-nominate" into the program provided the
decision is based on prior achievement, on high school and college faculty or administrative
advice, and is accomplished prior to the terminal dates set for entry into academic programs
leading to an honors degree. Entering students, above a predetermined college selection index,
are automatically admitted as James Scholar Designates in the College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences. (See page 237 for further information regarding James Scholar honors students in
Liberal Arts and Sciences.) Students may elect to leave the program or may be removed for
failure to meet standards of academic performance in the various colleges.
During summer advance enrollment, freshmen in most colleges will receive additional
information regarding specific college programs leading to an honors degree. At that time, in
consultation with their advisers, students may self-nominate into the program and select an
honors course or plan other honors activities.
Although the honors program in each college varies in detail, incoming freshmen electing
to undertake an honors program will enter the University as James Scholar Designates. After
completion of a period on campus, each designated record will be reviewed by his or her
college. He or she then will be invited to continue as a full James Scholar honors student or
advised to drop from the program on the basis of criteria developed by each college. Resident
and transfer students wishing to self-nominate into the program should inquire at their college
offices.
James Scholar Recognition
Successful performance for one year as a James Scholar honors student is recognized and
recorded on the student's University record as Edmund J. James Scholar (year).
Specific inquiries regarding the honors program of a particular college may be addressed to
the college office in care of the honors dean. General information about campuswide honors
recognition is available from the Campus Visitors Center, University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign, 919 West Illinois Street, Urbana, IL 61801.
Honors Credit Learning Agreements
It is not expected that James Scholar honors students will take a full schedule of special
courses; however, an average of at least one honors activity each semester is considered normal.
To encourage sustained, independent, intellectual activity by superior students, the campuswide
Honors Credit Learning Agreement Program enables students to earn officially recognized
honors credit in regular undergraduate courses. This is accomplished by learning agreements
between students and their instructors whereby students undertake special course-related
projects. Upon successful completion of a project, students are awarded transcript-designated
honors credit for a course. Forms for initiation of honors credit learning agreements are
available in the college offices. Note: This program is currently under review and may undergo
minor changes in the future.
TRANSITION PROGRAM
General Description
The Transition Program is a campus-sponsored academic support program designed to provide
assistance to students admitted to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, but who
have academic weaknesses that could place them "at risk" if they were permitted to enter the
University without such assistance. Such students are admitted to the College of Liberal Arts
and Sciences' General Curriculum through the Transition Program, where they may remain
and receive developmental academic support for a period of up to two academic years.
SPECIAL OPPORTUNITIES 41
An admission space is reserved in the curriculum selected by each student in his or her
application. It the student's performance is satisfactory in the Transition Program, he or she
is then permitted to transfer to that curriculum. While the majority of students enrolled
through the Transition Program will remain in the program through the end of the sophomore
year, as is the case with most General Curriculum students, transfer can occur earlier if the
individual student meets the same requirements as other students pursuing the desired curriculum.
Through the Transition Program students are provided with:
— Intensive academic advising and personal career counseling.
— The opportunity to enroll in support-based sections of existing courses.
— Tutoring, diagnostic testing, developmental skills enhancement, enrichment activities, and
other assistance as required.
The Summer Bridge Component
A subgroup of the students selected for admission through the Transition Program also is
provided with the opportunity to participate in the Summer Bridge Component, a seven-week
summer session program sponsored by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. This program
engages the students in intensive coursework in mathematics, writing, and basic skills devel-
opment and, at the same time, orients them to the University and campus living.
Each Summer Bridge Component participant receives institutional financial assistance to
cover the cost of tuition, room, board, and books. In addition, with the exception of students
who will participate in intercollegiate athletics and who are not eligible for such added financial
assistance under National Collegiate Athletic Association regulations, each participant will
receive a stipend consisting of a modest weekly living allowance and a lump-sum payment at
the end of the summer session, if he or she has successfull completed the program and is
eligible to continue enrollment in the Transition Program in the fall.
Selection of Students and Admission to the Program
Only those students who officially apply to the University in the prescribed manner and who
meet established campus and program deadlines for application will be considered for admission
through the Transition Program. The final decision on which students will be admitted to the
campus through the Transition Program is the joint responsibility of the director of admissions
and records and the directors) of the Transition Program, acting on behalf of the College of
Liberal Arts and Sciences.
General criteria to be employed in the selection of students for the Transition Program are
as follows:
— If an applicant has a score of 15 or below on either the ACT1 English or ACT Mathematics
subtest areas, admission will be granted only through the Transition Program unless there
is strong evidence that participation in the program is not necessary for the applicant's
success.
— If an applicant has a score of 12 or below on either the ACT English or ACT Mathematics
subtest areas, or if an applicant has a score of 15 or below on both ACT English and ACT
Mathematics, participation in the Summer Bridge Component of the Transition Program
will be required unless there is strong evidence that participation in the Summer Bridge
Component is not necessary for the applicant's success. Eligibility of Summer Bridge
Component participants to continue fall enrollment is contingent upon acceptable academic
performance in the summer program and recommendation by the directors) of the Transition
Program.
— Other applicants may be invited or required to participate in the Transition Program or the
Summer Bridge Component if, in the judgment of the director of admissions and the
directors) of the Transition Program, such participation is necessary for the applicant's
success at the University.

EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES PROGRAM
General Nature and Purpose
The Educational Opportunities Program (EOP) is designed to help provide a college education
to persons who historically have been excluded from postsecondary education for a variety of
reasons.
Students in the program, as do many other students, receive financial support from federal
loans and grants, Illinois State Scholarship Commission Monetary Awards, and University
tuition waivers. They also contribute toward their expenses through family contributions,
summer and part-time employment, and personal loans. Supportive services for the program
are provided by federal and University funds.
Through the Educational Opportunities Program, the University is attempting to:
— Admit students who otherwise might not be able to undertake a college-level program at
a major educational institution and assist them in completing a baccalaureate degree.
Participants receive the same benefits as other students and additional support if required.
— Increase the number of students from underrepresented ethnic minority groups on campus.
— Develop educational programs and policies, both academic and administrative, that will
assist and support EOP students and which may well benefit all students.
— Provide students not in EOP the vital cultural and social experience of meeting, living with,
and learning from students from other cultures.
— Add ethnic diversity to the campus.
— Provide and disseminate to other educational institutions and agencies information that will
increase their ability to deal with educational and sociological programs of students from
nontraditional backgrounds.
— Provide information on securing financial aid, student employment, and post-graduate
opportunities for program participants.

psychology and special class sections in existing courses.

and how to arrange for them, and are strongly encouraged to visit campus and the Division
of Rehabilitation-Education Services well in advance of enrollment to plan for their needs.
COURSE ATTENDANCE BY ILLINOIS HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Qualified Illinois high school students are permitted, while in high school, to attend University
classes for college credit. They may also enroll for college credit in correspondence and
extramural courses offered by the University.
To qualify for high school and on-campus University concurrent enrollment, students must
be recommended by their high school principals and have approximately a 4.5 (A = 5.0) grade-
point average. Each case is considered on an individual basis. Students are assessed tuition at
the regular nondegree student rates.
Courses taken by these students involve work over and above the secondary school curriculum.
Grades and course credits will appear on their permanent University records and on official
transcripts. If these students enter the University after high school graduation, the courses, if
applicable, will be credited toward University graduation.
Students applying for on-campus admission or readmission under this program should be
prepared to submit the following materials upon request:
— A S25 check or money order payable to the University of Illinois for the nonrefundable
application fee.
— An application for admission or readmission to the University (not required of students
enrolled under this plan in the immediately preceding semester or summer session).
— An official copy of the student's high school transcript covering all work completed in high
school and courses in progress, together with ACT or SAT test scores if available. Acceptance
under this program does not guarantee later acceptance as a degree candidate.
Information and applications for this program may be obtained from the Office of Admissions
and Records at the address on the inside back cover. A separate undergraduate admission
application is required if a student desires to attend the University after high school graduation
or under the Early Admission Program described in the following section.
Students interested in correspondence study should request an application form from Guided
Individual Study, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 104 Illini Hall, 725 South Wright
Street, Champaign, IL 61820. It is suggested that students begin correspondence study to
UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
coincide with the start of a fall or spring semester at the University. Applications should be
submitted before the beginning of a semester. For the summer months, applications should be
submitted by the middle of May.
EARLY ADMISSION PROGRAM
Under the Early Admission Program, high school students meeting competitive admission
requirements except receipt of a high school diploma may be enrolled in the University after
their junior year. This may reduce the length of the combined high school and college education
by one year. Although each application is treated as a special admissions case, prospective
students must have completed their junior high school year, have earned approximately 15
units toward a high school diploma, be in good academic standing, be recommended by high
school staff who are able to evaluate their work, and meet competitive admission standards.
Those accepted in the program are enrolled in regular four-year curricula and treated as first-
year students.
Students interested in this program may apply for admission no sooner than January preceding
the fall term of planned entry so applications can include complete information about the
student's fall semester. However, applications should be completed as soon as possible after
January 1.
For complete information, contact the Office of Admissions and Records at the address on
the inside back cover of this catalog.
DELAYED ADMISSION
Persons approved for admission may request that their admission be delayed for a maximum
of one year to participate in nonacademic pursuits. Applicants who wish to consider this
alternative should request further information from the Office of Admissions and Records at
the time they accept an admission offer since the program is limited.
CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT
Students at Parkland College and the Urbana-Champaign Campus
Students in good academic standing at Parkland College and at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign may concurrently enroll in courses offered by the opposite institution if
such courses are not available at the student's primary campus. Approval for concurrent
enrollment must be obtained from the dean of students at Parkland College and the concerned
college office at the University campus.
Concurrent enrollees are part-time nondegree students who pay the tuition and fees regularly
assessed at each institution in accordance with the amount of work taken. The application fee
is waived.
STUDY AWAY FROM CAMPUS
The University permits students who have been enrolled on campus for at least a semester or
summer session, with the approval of their adviser and the appropriate departmental and
college offices, to undertake independent study away from campus, in the United States or
abroad.
Colleges and departments may establish variable credit courses that permit students to
continue enrollment in the University while studying away from campus upon payment of an
appropriate fee. Final determination of credit is made by the department and college concerned.
Overseas study programs offered by each college are described in the individual college
sections of this catalog.

STUDENT COSTS 53
in extramural, correspondence, and intercession courses, or to students for whom this privilege
has been denied.
Under the installment plan, semester charges are collected in three installments. The first is
payable during the first ten days of instruction, and the remaining ones are payable in each of
the two following months. Approximately one-half of the summer session charges must be
paid during the first seven days of instruction with the remainder due during the following
month. There is a finance charge of 1 percent of the amount deferred, or a minimum charge
of $2 — whichever is greater — when charges are paid in installments (amount subject to change).
Students who pay their accounts on the installment plan and later withdraw from the
University, or reduce their registration to a lower credit range after the established refund
deadline date, are liable for the full amount of tuition and fees assessed.
Installment payments are delinquent on the first day of the month following the date that
payment is due. A delinquent service charge of 1 percent per month or a minimum monthly
charge of $1, whichever is greater, is added to delinquent accounts (amount subject to change).
The delinquent service charge is applied to all items charged to the student account and for
which payment is delinquent.
Students who are in debt to the University at the end of any academic term may not be
permitted to register in the University again. They are not entitled to receive diplomas or
official statements or transcripts of credits until either the indebtedness has been paid or
suitable arrangements for payment have been made, unless either there is pending a bankruptcy
petition of the student seeking a discharge of all such indebtedness or all such indebtedness
has been discharged.
REFUNDS
Cancellation of Registration
Individuals who sign and return a registration agreement and later decide not to attend the
University may cancel their registration before the first day of classes.
If a request to cancel registration is received in the Office of Admissions and Records by
5:00 p.m. on the last day of on-campus registration, a student's registration agreement will be
cancelled and tuition and fees will not be charged.
Students who have not attended any classes, or received any student services, may cancel
their registration agreement up to 5:00 p.m. on the first day of classes in a term if they obtain
the approval of their college. To be relieved of their obligation to pay tuition and fees, they
must surrender their permanent I.D. card and/or the individualized validation label that
accompanies their Registration Statement of Charges and Aid. These items must be returned
immediately to the Fee Assessment Section, Window 25, 100 Administration Building, or by
mail addressed to the Office of Admissions and Records.
Once students have attended a class, they may not cancel their registration agreement. If
they leave the University, they must officially withdraw from the University.
Withdrawal from the University
Students who have been charged tuition and/or fees and later withdraw from the University
during the refund period are assessed a nonrefundable charge in the amount of one-half of
the service fee plus the Health Insurance Fee and the Health Service Fee (rounded if necessary
to the next higher even dollar) or $30, whichever is greater. They continue to be covered by
the health insurance program and are eligible to receive McKinley Health Center services, if
fees for insurance and health services were paid, until the first day of on-campus registration
for the next term. Use of intramural recreation facilities also is permitted. Students who have
been exempted from the payment of these fees will have the nonrefundable charge reduced
by the amount of the appropriate fee(s).
Refund periods are as follows:
— In a semester, twelve-week term, or eleven-week summer law program, full refund, except
for the nonrefundable charge, during the first ten days of instruction; no refund thereafter;
— In an eight-week summer session, full refund, except for the nonrefundable charge, during
the first seven days of instruction; no refund thereafter; and
— For University terms of different lengths, refund periods are determined proportionately in
accordance with the above principles.
54 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
In case of extenuating circumstances, such as medically documented serious illness or injury,
exceptions to these refund periods may be made by the director of admissions and records.
The petition form to request a refund is available at Windows 25 or 27, 100 Administration
Building.
Reduction of Program
Students who paid tuition and/or fees and later reduce their registration to a lower credit
range, as indicated in Table 3, receive a full refund of the difference in tuition and fees specified
for the ranges if the change is made during the periods designated above for withdrawal from
the University. Thereafter, no refund is allowed.
EXEMPTIONS AND WAIVERS OF TUITION AND FEES
Appearing below are the waivers and exemptions available to students and the conditions
under which they are granted.
Unless otherwise exempted by Board of Trustees authorization, the payment of tuition and
fees is required of academic employees of the University or allied agencies under appointment
for less than 25 percent of full-time services, and of nonacademic employees under appointment
for less than 50 percent of full-time services.
For tuition and fees assessment purposes, a staff appointment must be to an established
position for a specific amount of time and a salary commensurate with the percentage of time
required, and it must require service for not less than three-fourths of the academic term.
Note: A term is defined as running from the first day of registration through the last day of
final examinations. Three-fourths of a term is defined as ninety-one days in a semester and
forty-one days during the eight-week summer session. Staff tuition and fees privileges do not
apply to students employed on an hourly basis in either an academic or nonacademic capacity,
or to persons on leave without pay.
University employees appointed to established civil service positions whose rates of pay are
determined by negotiation, prevailing rates, and union affiliation are not considered as paid on
an hourly basis and are entitled to the same tuition and fees privileges accorded to other staff
members under the regulations.
Students who resign their staff appointment, or whose appointment is cancelled before
rendering service for at least three-fourths of the term, become subject to the full amount of
the appropriate tuition and fees for that term unless they withdraw from University classes at
the same time or before the appointment becomes void, or they file a clearance form for
graduation within one week following the resignation date.
Students holding appointments, either as employees or as fellows, to the close of the second
semester, and for whom tuition and/or the service fee have been provided by exemption or
waiver, are entitled to the same exemption of tuition and/or the service fee for the summer
session or term immediately following, providing they hold no appointments during that
summer session or term.
Tuition and fee waivers are not granted for the Executive MBA Program or other self-
supporting programs.
Application Fee
Applicants for admission must submit a $25 ($35 for international applicants) application fee
(amount subject to change) to help defray processing costs. The fee is nonrefundable to
applicants approved for admission and to denied applicants who submit complete or partial
applications prior to the date all admission spaces are filled in the college and curriculum of
their choice. Application fees will be returned to persons applying for admission to curricula
that were closed to further admission or to programs not being offered.
Exempt from payment of the application fee are:
— Readmission applicants who are applying for a degree program if their last enrollment at
the Urbana-Champaign campus was as an undergraduate degree candidate.
— Readmission applicants to the Graduate College who are applying to a graduate degree
program in which they were enrolled within five years preceding the date of application.
— Faculty and academic/professional staff members and persons retired from the academic
staff.
STUDENT COSTS 55
— Permanent nonacademic employees of the University and other institutions and agencies
under the University Civil Service System who have been assigned to established permanent
and continuous nonacademic positions and who are employed for at least 50 percent of
full time.
— Staff members of certain specifically identified related agencies who are authorized tuition
and/or service fee waivers.
— Summer-session-only graduate degree applicants after their first registration for on-campus
work.
— Students registered at the University of Illinois at Chicago who wish to enroll at the Urbana-
Champaign campus for the summer session only.
Waivers of the application fee are authorized for:
— Applicants who, because of extreme financial hardship, cannot meet the cost of the fee. In
general, evidence of extreme financial hardship is a family income at or below the Bureau
of Labor Statistics low standard family budget or the receipt of a testing waiver from the
American College Testing Program or the College Entrance Examination Board. Applicants
presently attending another collegiate institution may provide evidence of the financial
package received at that institution.
— Applicants under approved foreign exchange programs in which the University participates,
such as the Latin American Scholarship Program of American Universities (LASPAU) and
the African Scholarship Program of American Universities (ASPAU), and foreign students
participating in approved exchange programs where the waiver of fees is reciprocal.
— Intercampus transfers at the same level: undergraduate to undergraduate or graduate to
graduate.
— Applicants requesting a change in admission consideration from one campus of the University
of Illinois to another for the same level and term. This would include applicants denied
admission on one campus as well as applicants wishing to cancel admission or admission
consideration on one campus for similar consideration on another campus. Students applying
simultaneously to two campuses must pay the application fee at each campus. Undergraduate
students applying for admission to a professional or graduate college on either of the two
campuses must pay the application fee.
— Students from other universities participating in the Committee on Institutional Cooperation
(CIC) program by taking courses at the University of Illinois.
— Persons who are applying for ClC-supported fellowships to study at a CIC member institution.
— Graduate and professional applicants whose entry is advanced or delayed by action of their
major departments are not required to pay a second application fee.
— University of Illinois students applying for work on a second campus as concurrent registrants,
and non-University of Illinois students applying as concurrent registrants from another
institution with which the University has a reciprocal agreement, and students who have
been concurrent enrollees the immediately preceding term and who plan to return to their
primary campus the following term.
— Cooperating teachers and administrators who receive assignment of practice teachers, or
who receive assignment of students meeting the clinical experience requirement in teacher
education, or who cooperate in research projects related to teacher education, cooperating
librarians, school-nurse teachers, social welfare field supervisors, recreation field supervisors,
health and education field supervisors, speech pathology supervisors, and physicians partic-
ipating without salary in the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Urbana-Champaign.
— Students on leave-of-absence status on re-entry.
Waiver of Tuition
Tuition is waived for:
— All faculty and academic professional employees (excluding graduate assistants) of the
University on appointment for at least 25 percent of full-time service, provided the
appointments require service for not less than three-fourths of a term. This waiver also
applies to staff members of certain specifically identified related agencies whose positions
are considered equivalent to academic positions of the University.
— Graduate teaching and research assistants of the University on appointment for at least 25
percent but not more than 67 percent of full-time service, if approved for a waiver by their
sponsoring unit and no tuition and fees payments are available from an outside agency.
56 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Their appointments must require service for not less than three-fourths of the term. Those
on appointment for 68 percent or more of full-time service pay tuition at the in-state rate
and are eligible for waiver of the service fee only. Caution: Assistantship appointments are
cumulative. For example, if a person holds two appointments, a 25-percent and a 50-percent
assistantship appointment, he or she is ineligible for a tuition waiver.
— Academic staff members emeriti.
— Holders of tuition waiver scholarships.
— Holders of graduate tuition and fee waivers awarded by the Graduate College.
— Holders of grants or contracts from outside sponsors which provide payments to cover the
total cost of instruction.
— Cooperating teachers and administrators who receive an assignment of practice teachers, or
who receive assignment of students meeting the clinical experience requirement in teacher
education curricula, or who cooperate in research projects related to teacher education, are
exempted for one semester, quarter, or summer session for each semester, quarter, or
equivalent of service rendered within two consecutive semesters. The exemption shall apply
to the semester, quarter, or summer session of registration as designated by the student that
is concurrent with, or following, the term of service, but must be applied no later than one
calendar year from the end of the term of service. Concurrent registration on more than
one campus of the University or in University extramural courses constitutes one semester,
quarter, or session of eligibility for exemption. A similar waiver is authorized for cooperating
librarians, school-nurse teachers, social welfare field supervisors, developmental child-care
field supervisors, recreation field supervisors, health and education field supervisors, speech
pathology supervisors, educational psychology supervisors, and physicians who participate
without salary in the instructional program of the University of Illinois College of Medicine
at Urbana-Champaign.
— Nonacademic employees of the University, of other institutions and agencies under the
University Civil Service System, and of certain specifically identified related agencies in status
appointments or in appointments designed to qualify for status in an established class (e.g.,
trainee, intern) for at least 50 percent of full-time services who register in regular University
courses not to exceed:
• Six credit hours or two courses in a semester or quarter if on full-time appointment,
• Four credit hours if on a 75-percent to 99-percent time appointment, or
• Three credit hours if on a 50- to 74-percent time appointment, provided that they (1)
meet conditions and eligibility for admission as prescribed by the Office of Admissions and
Records, (2) are not students as defined in Civil Service Rule 7.7c, and (3) have approval
by their employing departments of enrollment and of a makeup schedule to cover any time
in course attendance during their regular work schedule.
The waiver of tuition also applies to any additional hours of registration by employees
which keep them within the same fee assessment credit range. Employees whose total
registration is in a higher range than that authorized by their tuition waiver pay only the
difference between the waiver authorization and the higher range in which their total
registration places them.
— Nonacademic employees in a status, learner, trainee, apprentice, or provisional appointment
may enroll without payment of tuition in regular courses directly related to their University
employment not to exceed 10 credit hours per semester provided they have made application
and received prior approval for enrollment as required by procedures issued by the director
of nonacademic personnel and set forth in Policy and Rules — Nonacademic.
Waiver of the Nonresident Portion of Tuition
Nonresident portion of tuition is waived for:
— All staff members (academic, administrative, or permanent nonacademic) on appointment
for at least 25 percent of full-time services with the University or with specifically identified
related agencies, provided the appointment requires service for not less than three-fourths
of the term.
— The faculties of state-supported institutions of higher education in Illinois holding appoint-
ments of at least one-quarter time, provided the appointment requires service for not less
than three-fourths of the term.
— The teaching and professional staff in the private and public elementary and secondary
STUDENT COSTS 57
schools in Illinois, such as counselors, school psychologists, school social workers, librarians,
and administrators who hold such an appointment at least one-quarter time, and for not
less than three-fourths of the term.
— The spouses and dependent children of all staff members (academic, administrative, or
nonacademic) on appointment with the University or allied agencies for at least 25 percent
full-time service, and of those listed in the second item above. (Dependent children are
those who qualify as dependents for federal income tax purposes.)
— The spouses and dependent children of fellows and trainees who are employed as teaching
assistants to the fullest extent permitted by their fellowship appointment.
— Persons actively serving in one of the armed forces of the United States who are stationed
and present in the state of Illinois in connection with that service and their spouses and
dependent children, as long as the military person remains stationed, present, and living in
this state.
Service Fee Waivers
The service fee is waived, or exempted, for:
— Academic staff members of the University (except graduate assistants) and certain specifically
identified, related agencies who qualify for tuition waivers.
— Graduate teaching and research assistants of the University on appointment for at least 25
percent of full-time service for not less than three-fourths of the term, if approved for this
waiver by their sponsoring unit and no tuition and fees payments are available from an
outside agency.
— Holders of graduate tuition and fee waivers awarded by the Graduate College.
— Students registered in absentia.
— Students registered in approved off-campus and study abroad courses.
— Students registered as participants in the high school concurrent enrollment program.
— Holders of grants or contracts from outside sponsors that provide payments to cover the
total cost of instruction if this fee is charged to contract or grant funds.
— Cooperating teachers and administrators. (See Waiver of Tuition on page 55.)
— Academic staff members emeriti.
— Nonacademic employees of the University exempted from tuition as specified in the last
two categories under Waiver of Tuition.
Health Service and Student Insurance Fees
Students totally exempt from payment of the Student Insurance Fee and the Health Service
Fee, and therefore not eligible for these benefits and services, are:
— Persons registered for doctoral thesis research in absentia.
— Persons registered in off-campus courses and study abroad courses for zero credit. (If
registered for more than zero credit, they are required to pay the insurance fee.)
— Students registered as participants in the high school concurrent enrollment program.
— University employees registered at the request of their departments in zero credit courses
especially established to improve their work.
— Staff members who are registered as students and who are eligible for the mandatory State
of Illinois Employees Insurance Program.
— Staff members of certain specifically identified related agencies who are eligible automatically
to receive hospital-medical coverage as an employee benefit at the cost of the employing
agency.
Cooperating teachers and administrators and certain field supervisors are exempt from
payment of the Health Service Fee (see Waiver of Tuition on page 55). All other students
enrolled on campus must pay the Health Service Fee unless they have a fellowship or grant
that specifically pays for it.
Student Health Insurance
The University Board of Trustees requires all students to be covered by health insurance
through either a program provided by the University or one determined to be equivalent to
that offered by the University.
All students are assessed an insurance fee to cover the cost of the Student Comprehensive
58 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Health Insurance Program. This fee may be waived for students who present evidence of
equivalent insurance coverage and complete a petition for exemption from the insurance fee.
EXEMPTION MUST BE REQUESTED IN PERSON.
Evidence of equivalent insurance may be established by the student's insurance policy or an
identification card with a brochure outlining the benefits of the program. Military personnel
and their dependents need only their military identification cards. Letters from employers,
insurance companies, or agents will be accepted if they are on company letterhead stationery
and are signed by a company official giving the name of the insurance company and defining
the scope of the insurance coverage of the student.
To qualify for an exemption, a student must present satisfactory evidence of insurance and
complete an exemption petition at one of the following locations:
— the Insurance Station at the Armory during on-campus registration,
— the Insurance Station at the Post-Registration Service Center in the Illini Union (fall and
spring semesters), or
— the Student Insurance Office, Room 228, 505 East Green Street, Champaign (during the
summer session and following the semester post-registration periods).
Items mailed to the Student Insurance Office or included in payments made by mail will be
returned to the sender without action. Such items must be resubmitted by the student in
person within the stated deadline.
Requests for exemption must be made in person within the first ten days of instruction
during a semester or within the first seven days in the eight-week summer sessin.
Once waived, the exemption is continuous, and it is the student's responsibility to request
reinstatement in the Health Insurance Program. Reinstatement may be requested at any time
but is subject to approval of the student's Statement of Medical History.
Married students may purchase insurance for a spouse and/or children by paying an additional
premium. A brochure explaining insurance benefits and possible coverage during periods that
students are not enrolled is available from the Student Insurance Office, Room 228, 505 East
Green Street, Champaign, IL 61820.
Financial Aid
THE APPLICATION PROCESS 59
SOURCES OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE 60
EMPLOYMENT: A FORM OF SELF-HELP FINANCIAL AID 61
STUDENT LOANS: ANOTHER FORM OF SELF-HELP ASSISTANCE 62
SPECIALIZED AID PROGRAMS 65
FOR MORE INFORMATION ON SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS 68
Financial aid programs are designed to provide assistance to students who otherwise would
not be able to pursue a postsecondary education. A basic principle of most aid programs is
that parents and students pay for an education according to their capability. Student financial
aid programs, therefore, are designed to supplement — not replace — a family's contribution.
Even with relatively low tuition and fee charges, the cost of a college education still can be
a financial burden for many families. (Estimated expenses for an undergraduate student at the
University appear in Table 2 on page 50.)
No student, however, should fail to apply for admission because his or her family feel they
are unable to pay the full costs of a college education. The Office of Student Financial Aid at
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, adhering to the principle that applicants must
demonstrate financial need, administers several financial aid programs. If the family's resources
are determined insufficient to meet necessary educational expenses, financial aid in the form
of loans, employment, grants, and/or scholarships usually can be made available.
The major sources of aid are federal and state government programs in addition to funds
administered by the University. There also are funds for which a student applies directly to an
awarding agency.
Personnel in the Office of Student Financial Aid are available to those needing information
on financial assistance. Office hours: Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to noon; 1:00 to 5:00
p.m., except on all-campus holidays. Address: Fourth floor, Fred H. Turner Student Services
Building, 610 East John Street, Champaign, IL 61820. Telephone: (217) 333-0100.
THE APPLICATION PROCESS
To receive University-awarded aid, students must be enrolled full time: at least 12 undergraduate
credit hours or 3 graduate units. {Note: Students in veterinary medicine who do not have a
bachelor's degree should follow the steps prescribed for undergraduate students.)
UNDERGRADUATE ILLINOIS RESIDENTS
— Complete a need-analysis document. The Family Financial Statement (FFS) published by
American College Testing (ACT) is preferred, but the Financial Aid Form (FAF) published
by the College Scholarship Service (CSS) is acceptable.
— Apply for an Illinois State Scholarship Commission (ISSC) Monetary Award and a Pell
Grant.] A separate application is not necessary. The need-analysis document provides an
opportunity for applicants to release information to these state and federal programs.

provides an opportunity for applicants to release information to this federal program.
'All Pell Grant applicants receive a Student Aid Report that indicates whether or not they
will receive a grant. An eligible student will receive at least a three-page report; all copies must
be submitted to the Office of Student Financial Aid. A student who is ineligible for a Pell
Grant will receive fewer copies; one copy must be submitted to the Office of Student Financial
Aid.
60 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
GRADUATE/PROFESSIONAL RESIDENT OR NONRESIDENT
— Complete a need-analysis document. The Family Financial Statement (FFS) published by
American College Testing (ACT) is preferred, but the Financial Aid Form (FAF) published
by College Scholarship Service (CSS) is acceptable.
— To apply for tuition-fee waivers, fellowships, assistantships, or traineeships, students should
contact their prospective academic department.
The Office of Student Financial Aid offers very limited scholarships for students in the
Graduate College. Graduate, law, and veterinary medicine students may be offered low interest,
long-term loans; they may also receive an employment award under the College Work-Study
program.
Additional information on financial aid is available in the Graduate Programs catalog and
the College of Law catalog.
Transfer, Incoming Graduate, Readmitted Students
Transfer and graduate students and students who have been readmitted to the University and
wish to apply for financial aid must provide financial aid transcripts for each institution they
have attended. Even students who have not received aid previously must provide this information
before being considered for future assistance. Forms can be obtained from the Office of
Student Financial Aid.
Independent Students
Applicants who want to apply as independent students must indicate on either the Family
Financial Statement or the Financial Aid Form the conditions under which they qualify. Further
documentation may be requested by the Office of Student Financial Aid.
How to Obtain Need Analysis Documents
The Family Financial Statement or Financial Aid Form is available from high school and
community college counselors. The need analysis document, additional financial aid information,
and an optional Supplemental Scholarship Information Form are in applications packets available
from the Office of Student Financial Aid, Fourth Floor, Fred H. Turner Student Services
Building, 610 East John Street, Champaign, IL 61820.
Application Dates
Students seeking financial assistance through the University are encouraged to apply early.
When forms become available, they should be submitted for the next academic year as soon
after January 1 as possible.
The deadline date for first priority processing and equal consideration of financial aid
applications is mid-March, prior to the academic year for which aid is desired.
Applications completed after mid-March will be considered according to the availability of
funds.
SOURCES OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
Several types of financial aid are available. Since the University's funds are limited, students
should seek assistance provided by national, state, and local organizations. A few awards are
made on the basis of scholastic achievement, while others carry different or additional criteria.
Scholarships
Most scholarships require high scholastic achievement, but financial need is an additional
criterion. Students do not apply for a specific scholarship. Recipients are determined from
information supplied by all aid applicants on the FFS ( or FAF) and the Supplemental Scholarship
Information Form in order to distribute funds as extensively and equitably as possible.
In addition to scholarships administered by the Office of Student Financial Aid, numerous
agencies, organizations, and businesses provide funds to students in specific curricula. These
outside agencies, organizations, and businesses contact individual departments or units for
nominations of potentially eligible recipients. Students may wish to contact the departments
in which they are enrolled or have been accepted for admission for further information.
FINANCIAL AID 61
Federal and State Grant Programs
PELL GRANT
A major source of financial assistance for undergraduate students at the Urbana-Champaign
campus is the federally funded Pell Grant program. Awards ranged from $200 to $2,100 in
the 1986-8" academic year.
As indicated in The Application Process section (see page 59), the Pell Grant Student Aid
Report is an integral part of financial aid awarded at Urbana-Champaign. While Pell Grant
eligibility does not determine eligibility for other financial aid, students must demonstrate that
they have applied for federal funds before receiving assistance from the University's more
limited resources.
ILLINOIS STATE SCHOLARSHIP COMMISSION (ISSC) MONETARY AWARD
The Illinois State Scholarship Commission monetary award is another major source of grant
assistance to undergraduate Illinois residents attending colleges and universities in the state.
Ranging from $200 to $2,200 to be applied toward tuition and fee charges, this award is
granted on the basis of demonstrated financial need.
Note: The ISSC also administers a State Scholar Program which recognizes scholastic achieve-
ment. It is not necessary for a student to be named a State Scholar to be eligible for a monetary
award, nor does receiving such recognition guarantee eligibility for a monetary award.
However, the Merit Recognition Scholarship provides a $500 award to each student in the
top 10 percent of his or her graduating class. The scholarship is awarded for the freshman
year of study and is renewable at the sophomore level.
A recently established fund, the Congressional Teacher Scholarship Program, provides awards
of varying amounts for students enrolled full time in teacher education curricula. Recipients
must have graduated in the top 10 percent of their high school classes.
Grants Awarded by the Student Financial Aid Office
Awards from two grant programs are made by the Office of Student Financial Aid staff at
Urbana-Champaign.
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) is a federally funded grant program
distinct from the Pell Grant (above). The federal government annually provides postsecondary
institutions with allocations from which awards are made. The maximum amount a student
may receive during an academic year is $2,000. At Urbana-Champaign during 1986-87, awards
ranged from $200 to $1,500.
Students for Equal Access to Learning (SEAL) grant is a program funded jointly by voluntary
student contributions and matching funds provided by the state through the Illinois State
Scholarship Commission. Students at Urbana-Champaign initiated this program by referendum
in 1970 and have reaffirmed it every four years since. SEAL grants are awarded in accordance
with rules prescribed by the Illinois State Scholarship Commission. During academic year 1986-
87, SEAL awards ranged from $200 to $1,000.
Students do not apply directly for either of these grants. Recipients are selected from those
who have completed the need analysis document and applied to required state and federal
programs. (See The Application Process, page 59.)
EMPLOYMENT: A FORM OF SELF-HELP FINANCIAL AID
The Office of Student Financial Aid provides assistance to any University student seeking part-
time work. Staff counselors will assist students even if they have not applied for University-
administered aid. Employment counseling is available from 9:00 a.m. to noon and from 1:00
to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except on all-campus holidays.
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign employs several thousand part-time student
workers in offices, libraries, laboratories, farms, and food service units; each year, these student
employees earn more than $7.5 million. In addition, many students work in the community.
Hourly wages for student workers vary according to the type of work and responsibility
involved. Most jobs require from ten to twenty hours of work per week. Earnings can
approximate 20 to 30 percent of a student's college expenses.
Students in curricula in which laboratory periods occupy most of the daytime hours generally
62 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
find food service work at mealtimes, or temporary odd jobs before or after regular University
hours, are most convenient. Students in other curricula, by arranging class schedules to have
consecutive hours free each day for working, may improve their employment opportunities.
Job opportunities requiring advanced skills, knowledge, or experience offer excellent pan-time,
career-related opportunities to University students.
Campus Employment: College Work-Study
The University of Illinois participates in College Work-Study (CWS), a federal financial aid
program that helps colleges and universities provide jobs for students. To participate in the
College Work-Study program, a student must receive a CWS award as pan of a financial aid
offer from the Office of Student Financial Aid.
As with other awards made by the Office of Student Financial Aid, a student does not apply
specifically for College Work-Study assistance. All aid applicants receive consideration for
College Work-Study awards as well as for scholarships, grants, and loans.
A College Work-Study recipient must check with the Office of Student Financial Aid to
obtain assistance in job placement. This should be done at the beginning of the academic
term.
Most students in the CWS program work on campus.
Student Employment on Campus and in the Community
Most students who work during the school term do not secure jobs through the College
Work-Study program. Without a financial aid award, students who wish to work part-time
may apply for positions through regular University employment (on-campus jobs) or through
the Job Development Program (off-campus jobs in the Champaign-Urbana area).
STUDENT LOANS: ANOTHER FORM OF SELF-HELP ASSISTANCE
Low-Interest Loans Awarded by the University
The Office of Student Financial Aid offers loans to students who demonstrate financial need.
All applicants for University aid are considered for University-funded long-term loans, but a
student does not apply for a specific loan fund. The Office of Student Financial Aid, acting
for the University of Illinois as lender, determines who is eligible and the source and amount
of the loan.
These loans normally carry an interest rate of 5 percent, and repayment is deferred until
after the borrower ceases to be at least a half-time student.
Besides the University of Illinois Long-Term Loan program, Urbana-Champaign students also
participate in the federally funded Perkins Loan Program (formerly National Direct Student
Loan). These loans carry a 5 percent interest rate, and payment is deferred until nine months
after the borrower ceases to be a full-time student. Health Professions Student Loans, available
to veterinary medicine students, carry a 9 percent interest rate with repayment beginning 12
months after the borrower leaves school.
Guaranteed Student Loan Program
For students attending college at least half-time, the federal government has encouraged state
governments to operate guaranteed long-term loan programs in conjunction with commercial
lenders. This encouragement is an interest subsidy: the federal government pays the interest to
the lender until the borrower must begin to repay the loan. In addition, the government pays
a supplemental subsidy to match the prevailing interest rate of conventional loans.
While the federal government, the state, and private corporations subsidize and guarantee
these loan programs, the student obtains the loan from a participating lending institution —
bank, savings and loan association, or credit union. A student should contact the lending
institution for additional information and a loan application.
General Terms of Long-Term Loan Programs
Students who contemplate borrowing money for educational purposes should consider carefully
the general terms and repayment requirements of the loan programs listed below. For specific
terms pertaining to any loan program, a borrower always should read the conditions which
FINANCIAL AID 63
appear on the promissory note and question any provisions that seem unclear. Note: The
interest rates and minimum repayment amounts for all loan programs indicated below were
the prevailing figures at the time of publication. When obtaining any loan, a borrower should
be aware of the interest being charged and the repayment requirements at the time of signing
a repayment note.

repayment schedule, but, at the lender's discretion, an additional five-year extension may be
granted.
SUPPLEMENTAL LOANS TO STUDENTS AND PARENTS
Two other loan programs are available directly from a lending institution such as a bank,
savings and loan association, or credit union.
For dependent undergraduate students, parents or legal guardians may obtain up to $4,000
per academic year. The maximum aggregate that can be borrowed for each undergraduate
student is $20,000. Interest varies and begins to accrue as soon as the loan is obtained with
repayment beginning within 60 days.
For independent students, another supplemental loan program is available. Undergraduate
students may borrow up to $3,000 per academic year up to an aggregate of $15,000 which
includes any Guaranteed Student Loans undergraduate borrowers may have.
Graduate and professional students may borrow up to $4,000 per academic year up to an
aggregate of $20,000. For graduate and professional students, the aggregate maximum does
not include any Guaranteed Student Loans borrowed.
Interest begins to accrue as soon as the loan is obtained and is payable during the deferment
64 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
period, but student borrowers may have repayments on the principal deferred until 30 days
after leaving school permanently.
More information, including repayment provisions and schedules, is available from lending
institutions.
Approximate Monthly Payments Required by Loan Programs
Monthly repayment schedules under various loan programs are somewhat comparable; variances
occur depending upon the length of time allowed to repay the entire loan amount and the
interest charged. The monthly payments given below are approximations to help potential
borrowers estimate the monthly obligation they will incur should they participate in a particular
loan program.
PERKINS LOANS; UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS LONG-TERM LOAN
A borrower has up to ten years to repay either of these loans, with a minimum monthly
repayment of $30 plus 5 percent per year simple interest. A student borrowing $5,000 and
taking the full 120 months to repay the loan would make monthly payments of $42 plus
interest. Since interest is charged only on the unpaid balance, the first payment of $62.83
(including principal and interest) is the highest amount scheduled to be charged in any month.
ILLINOIS GUARANTEED LOAN PROGRAM; HIGHER EDUCATION ASSISTANCE
FOUNDATION; UNITED STUDENT AID FUND LOAN PROGRAM; OTHER STATE
GUARANTEED LOAN PROGRAMS
Each of these loan programs carries a simple interest rate of 8 or 9 percent per year. Under
the Illinois Guaranteed Loan Program, the borrower has up to five years to repay the loan,
but at the lender's discretion, an extension of up to a total of ten years may be granted. Other
programs also allow the borrower up to ten years to repay with a minimum monthly payment
of $50. A student borrowing $5,000 and taking sixty months to repay an Illinois Guaranteed
Loan would make monthly payments of $103 including interest; a student borrowing $10,000
and paying over sixty months would repay at $207 per month including interest.
Emergency Short-Term and Intermediate Loans
In emergencies, to meet educational expenses, students may borrow up to $100 for up to sixty
days or until the last day of instruction for the semester, whichever comes first. In order to
make more money available to a maximum number of students, applicants should borrow as
little as is necessary for as short a period of time as possible. A service fee of $2 is charged
for short-term loans. There is a 12 percent interest charge on overdue loans.
Intermediate loans in amounts not to exceed $200 may be made, if funds are available, to
help meet the special financial needs of students who can demonstrate evidence of interrupted
cash flow during an academic year and who can also demonstrate evidence of being able to
completely repay the loan during the semester. A service charge of $6 is charged for intermediate
loans. There is a 12 percent interest charge on overdue loans.
A special provision permits graduating seniors and graduate students to borrow up to $250
to meet expenses for employment interviews. An applicant must show evidence that the
prospective employer will reimburse the recipient for such expenses.
Students who are U.S. citizens should apply in person to the Dean of Students Office, 130
Fred H. Turner Student Services Building. International students (noncitizens who are not in
the United States as permanent residents) should contact the Office of International Student
Affairs, for information.
Loan Repayment: Whose Responsibility?
Any recipient of a student loan, except for the Supplemental Loan for Parents, must recognize
that such a loan is a debt incurred by the student, not the parents. The responsibility for
understanding the conditions and regulations of the loan process, as well as the repayment
schedule, rests with the student borrower. Additional information on the Perkins Loans program
or the University Long-Term Loan program as well as loan indebtedness is available in the
Office of Student Financial Aid. Applications and additional information on guaranteed loan
programs are available from lending institutions. Emergency short-term and intermediate loan

information in available in the Dean of Students Office, 130 Fred H. Turner Student Services
Building.
SPECIALIZED AID PROGRAMS
Although most financial aid award guidelines for Urbana-Champaign students are determined
by the Office of Student Financial Aid, some aid programs are administered by groups or
agencies to which the student applies directly. These are in addition to the two major grant
programs described earlier: Pell Grant and Illinois State Scholarship Commission monetary
award.

Academic, administrative, and conduct regulations are published in the Code on Campus
Affairs and Regulations Applying to All Students. Students are responsible for complying with
these regulations of the University, and those of the colleges and departments from which they
take courses. This publication is available to students during on-campus registration, at the
campus Student Assistance Center in the Fred H. Turner Student Services Building, in 177
Administration Building, and at the Post-Registration Service Center in the Illini Union. A copy
may also be obtained by writing to the Office of Admissions and Records.
GRADING SYSTEM
Faculty members have the responsibility to provide the University with an individual evaluation
of the work of each student in their classes. Final course grades are entered on the student's
permanent University record at the close of each semester, term, or session. The University of
Illinois at Urbana-Champaign uses the following grading system.
Courses in All Colleges Except the College of Law
A = excellent; B = good; C = fair; D = poor (lowest passing grade); E = failure, including
courses dropped for academic irregularities; Ab = absent from the final examination without
an acceptable excuse (counts as a failure). If a student is absent from a final examination and
it is clear that taking that examination could not have resulted in a passing grade for the
course, a grade of E may be given instead of Ab. Plus and minus signs are not authorized with
these grades. In addition to the above grades, instructors in the College of Law are authorized
to assign grades of B+ and C+.
Computation of Scholastic Averages
For numerical computation of scholastic averages, the following values are designated: A =
5.0; B+ = 4.5; B = 4.0; C+ = 3.5; C = 3.0; D = 2.0; E and Ab = 1.0.
UNIFORM METHOD FOR CALCULATION
A uniform method for calculating undergraduate grade-point averages has been established for
all undergraduate colleges on the Urbana-Champaign campus. These averages are calculated
on the basis of all courses attempted for which grades and credits are assigned and which
carry credit in accordance with the Courses Catalog. Since courses offered by the religious
foundations on or near the Urbana-Champaign campus are not official University courses and
are not included in the Courses Catalog, the grades earned in such courses will not be included
in the calculation of any grade-point averages. Grades of S, U, CR, NC, and Pass are reported
on the official University transcript but are not included in the grade-point averages since grade-
points are not assigned to these letter grades. This method of calculation is used to determine
70 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
honors, probation and drop status, financial aid and scholastic awards, and transfer between
colleges on this campus.
For the purpose of computing a grade-point average for graduation, only the grades received
in those courses counting toward the degree, including grades in repeated courses, are included
in the average. (See Grade-Point Requirements for the Bachelor's Degree on page 76.)
For the special method used to determine eligibility for transfer into the University, refer to
the transfer admission policy on page 21.
Other Symbols in Use (Not Included in Computation of Averages)
W — Approved withdrawal without credit.
EX — Temporarily excused. Approved extension of time to complete the final examination
or other requirements of the course. Applies to both undergraduate and graduate
students. Entitles the student to an examination later without fee, or additional time
to complete other requirements of the course.
Only the dean of the student's college may authorize such an extension of time in
individual cases. A grade of EX which is not removed by the end of the first eight
weeks of instruction in the next semester in which the student is enrolled in an
undergraduate college on the Urbana-Champaign campus of the University automat-
ically becomes a grade of E. If the student receiving an excused grade does not
reenroll on the Urbana-Champaign campus, the excused grade, if not removed,
becomes an E after one calendar year.
CR — Credit earned. To be used only in courses taken under the credit-no credit grading
option. (Instructors report the usual letter grades. Grades of A, B, and C will
automatically be converted to CR.)
IP — Course in progress.
MISS — Missing grade. Instructor has failed to submit a grade for the student.
NC — No credit earned. To be used only in courses taken under the credit-no credit grading
option. (Instructors report the usual letter grades. Grades of D, E, or Ab will
automatically be converted to NC.)
DF — Grade temporarily deferred. To be used only in those thesis, research, and special
problems courses extending over more than one semester which are taken by graduate
students as preparation for the thesis and by undergraduate students in satisfaction
of the requirements for graduation with honors, and in other approved courses which
extend over more than one semester.
Requests for use of the DF grade in courses which extend over more than one
semester, and therefore require postponement of the final grade report, must be
submitted in writing by the executive officer of the department offering the course
to the dean of the appropriate college for concurrence. A current list of courses
which have received such approval is maintained in the Office of Admissions and
Records.
S — Satisfactory, and
U — Unsatisfactory. To be used only as final grades in graduate thesis research courses, in
graduate and undergraduate courses given for zero credit, and in other courses which
have been specifically approved by the head or the chairperson of the department
concerned, with concurrence of the appropriate college dean. A current list of courses
that have received such approval is maintained in the Office of Admissions and
Records.
PASS — To be used only in courses passed by special or proficiency examinations. A minimum
grade of C is required to pass.
Credit-No Credit Grading Option
This credit-no credit grading option is designed to encourage student exploration into areas
of academic interest which they might otherwise avoid for fear of poor grades. All students
considering this option are cautioned that many graduate and professional schools consider
applicants whose transcripts bear a significant number of nongrade symbols less favorably than
those whose transcripts contain none or very few. Likewise, in computing a preadmission
GRADING SYSTEM AND OTHER REGULATIONS 71
grade-point average, some of these schools may convert the NC symbol to a failing grade
since they do not know whether the actual grade was a D, E, or Ab.
A full-time undergraduate student in good academic standing (not on probation) may, with
the approval of his or her adviser, take a maximum of two courses each semester under the
credit-no credit grading option. Part-time students may take one course each semester under
this option. Summer session students may take one course under the credit-no credit option.
A maximum of 18 semester hours earned under the credit-no credit grading option may be
applied toward a baccalaureate degree at the Urbana-Champaign campus of the University. A
correspondence course taken on a credit-no credit basis will be included in the 18 semester
hour maximum credit-no credit limit allowed.
Any lower or upper division course may be chosen under the credit-no credit option except
courses used to satisfy the University's general education requirements, or in courses designated
by name or area by the major department for satisfying the major or field of concentration,
or those specifically required by name by the college for graduation. In cases of subsequent
change of major or field of concentration, courses previously taken under the credit-no credit
option in the new field may qualify for meeting major requirements.
Undergraduate students must exercise the credit-no credit option for a course taken in
residence only during on-campus registration, within the first eight weeks of instruction in a
semester, during the first four weeks of an eight-week course taught in a fall or spring semester,
or during registration or within the first four weeks of instruction during the summer session.
Students may elect to return to the regular grade option by filing an amended request within
the first eight weeks of instruction in a semester, within the first four weeks of instruction in
an eight-week course taught during a semester, or within the first four weeks of instruction
during the summer session. The credit-no credit option form must be properly approved and
deposited in the college office.
Instructors are not informed of those students in their classes who are taking work under
the credit-no credit option, and they report the usual letter grades at the end of the course.
These grades are automatically converted to CR or NC. Grades of C or better are required in
order to earn credit. Credit-no credit courses are not counted toward the grade-point average
but are included as part of the total credit hours. Final grades of CR or NC (for credit or no
credit) are recorded on the student's permanent academic record and subsequently will not be
changed to letter grades.
CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS
Classification of undergraduate students is made by the Office of Admissions and Records
based upon the number of credit hours earned. Classification for registration, certification, and
assessment purposes is based on the following scale:
Freshman standing 0-29.9 hours
Sophomore standing 30-59.9 hours
Junior standing 60-89.9 hours
Senior standing 90 or more hours
TRANSCRIPTS OF ACADEMIC RECORDS
Former and currently enrolled students who have paid their University charges are entitled to
receive, upon written request, a transcript of their academic records. Upon graduation or
withdrawal from the University, students with outstanding loans are not issued a transcript
until they have completed an exit interview with the Office of Business Affairs. Each transcript
includes a student's entire academic record to date and current academic status. Partial
transcripts are not issued.
The charge for transcripts is $2 per copy. For written certification of attendance, degrees,
or other data, the charge is $1 per copy. For same-day service, available only if requested in
person, S5 is charged for the first transcript or certification and the regular fee for extra copies
ordered at the same time.
No charge is made if the request for a transcript is accompanied by a Teacher's Certification
form. Transcripts of records for purposes of admission to the University of Illinois at Chicago
are issued without charge.
Telephone requests for transcripts cannot be honored. Transcripts are released only by
72 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
written request to whomever students or former students designate. Written requests accom-
panied by a check or money order made payable to the University of Illinois should be sent
to the Office of Admissions and Records (see the inside back cover for address information).
STUDENT RECORDS POLICY
It is University policy to comply fully with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of
1974 as amended. Guidelines and regulations for discharge of the University's obligation under

All students, their spouses, and dependent children with valid vehicle operator permits to
operate automobiles, motorcycles, motor scooters, and motorbikes in Illinois may operate
them on the Urbana-Champaign campus, provided they comply with University and state
regulations. Public parking facilities are extremely limited near the campus. Unless students
register their cars with the University, there is little opportunity for them to park near the
campus when classes are in session or overnight. By registering their motor vehicles with the
University ($5 fee per year), students may park or store their vehicles either in some University
parking lots or on some University streets. Permits to park or store cars in University rental
lots cost $24 per academic year.
Bicycles provide the best transportation on campus since bike paths connect the major
buildings on campus. All student bicycles must be registered; there is no fee for this registration.
Information about the operation of motor vehicles and bicycles by students is available from
the Division of Campus Parking, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 505 East Green
Street, Champaign, IL 61820, telephone (217) 333-7217.

GRADE-POINT REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE
All candidates for a degree must have at least a 3.0 (A = 5.0) grade-point average on all
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign credits counted for graduation requirements and at
least a 3.0 grade-point average on the combined transfer and University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign credits counted for graduation requirements. Certain colleges have established
higher scholastic graduation requirements for specific curricula. (Grades in courses taken at the
other campus of the University are counted as transferred.)
Where a course has been repeated, both the original and subsequent grades are included in
the average if the course is acceptable toward graduation, but the credit is counted only once.
An original failing grade is not removed from the student's record for a course subsequently
passed by special examination.
Students who do not meet the requirements stated above may graduate if they have the
minimum grade-point average calculated by either of the following alternate methods:
— Exclude courses in which grades of D or E have been recorded not to exceed a total of
10 semester hours completed prior to the last 30 hours of work completed at the University
of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and counted for graduation requirements, or,
— A grade-point average of no less than 3.1 for the last 60 semester hours of work counted
for graduation requirements and completed at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign,
except in those curricula where a higher scholastic graduation requirement is specified.
Each college office, on request, will inform students regarding the scholarship regulations of
that college.
RESIDENCE REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION
First Bachelor's Degree
In addition to specifc courses and scholastic average requirements, each candidate for a
bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign must spend either the
first three years earning not less than 90 semester hours or the last year (two semesters, or the
equivalent) earning not less than 30 semester hours in residence at the Urbana-Champaign
campus, uninterrupted by any work in another institution. Only those courses that are applicable
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS AND HONORS 77
toward dM degree sought may be counted in satisfying the above minimum requirement!.
(Either three twelve-week terms or four eight-week sessions are the equivalent of two semesters.
Concurrent attendance .it the University of Illinois at Urbana-( hampaign and another
collegiate institution does not interrupt the residence requirement for graduation.
C redit earned through the Advanced Placement Program is included in the first 90 semester
hours and is not considered as interrupting residence.
Credit allowed toward graduation for completion of courses of study offered by the religious
foundations located in Urbana-Champaign is not counted as interrupting residence or counted
toward satisfying minimum residence requirements for graduation.
Attendance at another institution under the CIC Program or participation in the University
of Illinois foreign study programs or the Study away from Campus Programs for which students
are registered in Urbana-Champaign courses does not interrupt residence, and credits earned
through these programs are counted as residence credit toward graduation, provided that
within the last two years of study at least 30 semester hours have been earned in courses taken
on the Urbana-Champaign campus.
Transfer students from junior colleges must, after attaining junior standing, earn at the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign or any other approved four-year institution at least
60 semester hours acceptable toward their degree, in addition to meeting the usual residence
requirement for a degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Students transferring from the University of Illinois at Chicago to Urbana-Champaign as
candidates for degrees must satisfy the residence and academic requirements for graduation
established for the curriculum entered on the Urbana-Champaign campus. Since the campuses
do not have identical academic programs, students who are contemplating a transfer should
consult with the college to which they expect to transfer.
A student attending as a "visitor only" is not considered a "student in residence."
A student who requests that the residence requirement for graduation be waived must submit
a petition to the dean of his or her college, who will take action on the petition.
A person who wishes to obtain a degree in a given semester but is not eligible to take
courses that semester on the Urbana-Champaign campus without applying for readmission
must apply to the director of admissions and records for readmission for the purpose of
obtaining a degree. Students who are on drop status may not graduate until they have been
readmitted to their college.
Second Bachelor's Degree
A student who has received one bachelor's degree may be permitted to receive a second
bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign provided all specified
requirements for both degrees are fully met and the curriculum offered for the second degree
includes at least the final 30 semester hours which are earned in residence at the Urbana-
Champaign campus and not counted for the other degree.
The second bachelor's degree may be earned either concurrently with or subsequent to the
first degree.
Candidates for a second bachelor's degree must meet the same residence requirements as
for the first degree.
Only those courses that are acceptable toward the degree sought may be counted in satisfying
the above minimum requirements. This includes the 30 additional hours required for the
second degree.
GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
A minimum of 6 hours each in the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences is
required for graduation in all undergraduate curricula. Approved courses should be distributed
over at least three years. Upon request, individual colleges will provide students with the
general education requirements for their curriculum and the list of courses acceptable for this
purpose.
78 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
ENGLISH REQUIREMENT FOR GRADUATION
Satisfactory proficiency in the use of English is a requirement for all undergraduate degrees
awarded at the Urbana-Champaign campus of the University. This proficiency can be certified
by the satisfactory completion of a one-semester, 4-hour course of either Rhetoric 105 or 108
or by the satisfactory completion of the two-semester, 6-hour sequence of Speech Commu-
nication 111 and 112 (Verbal Communication).
If the academic credentials of a transfer student do not indicate fulfillment of course work
equivalent to the University of Illinois English graduation requirement, the student may be
administered the English Placement Test (EPT) or the Transfer Writing Examination.
Under certain conditions, students may satisfy the English requirement for graduation through
satisfactory completion of courses offered by the Division of English as a Second Language
(ESL). Satisfactory completion of ESL courses (ESL 114-ESL 115) satisfies the English graduation
requirement. Evidence that a student is eligible to enroll in these courses is established by a
satisfactory score on the English Placement Test, a test of oral and written English administered
by the Division of English as a Second Language. On the basis of this test, the student will
be enrolled in the course or courses appropriate to his or her English needs.
If a student's score on the EPT is higher than the proficiency level of students in ESL 115,
that student must take the Transfer Writing Examination offered by the Department of English.
Those students whose deficiency in English requires that they take one or more of the ESL
noncredit courses (ESL 109, ESL 110, and ESL 111) are not allowed to register for a full
academic program and must complete their noncredit requirements before enrolling in the ESL
114-115 sequence.
FOREIGN LANGUAGE COURSES
Except as prohibited or limited by the established policy of the student's college, credit in
University foreign language courses taken to remove high school entrance deficiencies may, at
the discretion of the college, be counted in the total hours required for graduation and be
accepted in partial or complete satisfaction of the foreign language requirement for the degree.
Normally no more than 10 hours of proficiency credit for the study of a single foreign
language at the elementary and intermediate level shall be counted for graduation in the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Additional credit may be granted for advanced courses
emphasizing literature and language structure rather than communicative competence in the
language.
RELIGIOUS FOUNDATION COURSES
Courses of study offered by the religious foundations located in Urbana-Champaign that have
been approved by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Committee on Courses and Curricula
are accepted for credit by the University provided the student is currently registered in University
courses. Registration in these courses is limited to students of sophomore standing or above
who are currently registered on campus in University courses and must be approved in advance
by the dean of the student's college. Grades in these courses are not included in the student's
all-University scholastic average, and the courses are not counted as interrupting residence or
toward satisfying minimum residence requirements for graduation.
A maximum of 10 semester hours of credit in religious foundation courses may, with the
approval of the dean of the college concerned, be counted toward graduation.
The above credit limitations and other restrictions apply to religious foundation courses
only and not to courses offered by the University of Illinois Program in Religious Studies.
CORRESPONDENCE AND EXTRAMURAL COURSES
After matriculation, students may count toward their degree, with the approval of the dean
of their college, as many as 60 semester hours of credit earned in extramural and/or
correspondence study, provided:
— They complete all the remaining requirements for the degree in residence at the University
of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, or
— They present acceptable residence credit for work done elsewhere and complete the
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS AND HONORS 79
requirement! needed fat their degree in residence at the University. In all cases, the senior
year (two semesters ot not less than JO semester hours) must be done in residence at the
Univexsit] ol Illinois at Urbana-( hampaign.
Students who have completed their rirst three years in residence at the University of Illinois
.it Urbana c hampaign, earning a minimum of 90 semester hours, may do all or part of their
senior year in correspondence or extramural study, subject to meeting all the requirements for
their degree.
Credit for correspondence work taken with fully accredited institutions may be allowed,
but only on approval of the dean of the student's college.
THESES
If a thesis is to be submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a bachelor's degree,
the subject must be announced by the end of the sixth week of instruction in the first semester
of the student's senior year. The work must be done under the direction of a professor in the
department concerned and must be applicable to the curriculum in which a degree is expected.
A maximum of 10 hours of credit in thesis work may be counted toward a bachelor's degree.
UNDERGRADUATE CREDIT FOR SERVICE AND EDUCATION
IN THE ARMED FORCES
The University grants registered students college credit for certain training and experience in
the armed forces of the United States. The student who completes military service in the U.S.
Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Navy, or Coast Guard, including basic or recruit training of
six months or more, is awarded 4 semester hours credit in basic military science upon
presentation of evidence on form DD-214 of honorable discharge or transfer to the reserve
component.
Correspondence courses for which the student has passed the end-of-course test or exami-
nation prepared by the United States Armed Forces Institute that are baccalaureate-oriented
and which correspond in level and content to courses offered at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign are recognized for credit.
Credit recommendations in the Guide to the Evaluation of Education Experiences in the
Armed Forces (published by the American Council on Education) for military service school
training will be considered for transfer credit as follows: (1) credit will be granted for college-
level baccalaureate-oriented training and education, (2) vocational credit related to the student's
curriculum choice will be referred for consideration to the dean of the college in which the
student is enrolled, and (3) duplicate credit will be deleted. Applicability of military credit
toward a particular degree is determined by the dean of the college. Additional information
may be obtained from the Office of Admissions and Records.
GRADUATION WITH HONORS
Recognition for superior academic achievement is given by the University and by the colleges
and departments. Honors activities are under the general supervision of the Office of Admissions
and Records, affiliated with national and regional honors education organizations such as the
National Collegiate Honors Council and the Honors Council for the Illinois Region.
Each college, with the approval of the Urbana-Champaign Senate and the Board of Trustees,
prescribes the conditions under which degree candidates may be recommended for graduation
with honors. These distinctions are noted on the student's diploma, permanent University
record, and official transcripts of credits. Detailed information concerning the requirements for
graduation with honors is included in the sections of this catalog applying to the individual
colleges and departments.
UNIVERSITY HONORS
Continuous academic achievement is recognized by inscribing the student's name on a Bronze
Tablet that hangs on a wall of the Main Library. To qualify, undergraduate students must:
— Have at least a 4.5 (A = 5.0) cumulative grade-point average for all work taken at the
University through the academic term prior to their graduation, and
80 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
— Rank, on the basis of their cumulative grade-point average (including UIUC and transfer
work, if any) through the academic term prior to their graduation, in the top 3 percent of
the students in their college graduating class.
Transfer students, in addition to meeting the general rules for qualification, must satisfy two
additional requirements: they must have cumulative University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
grade-point averages as high as the lowest ones listed for students in their college who qualify
on the basis of having completed all of their work at the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign; they must earn 40 or more semester hours at the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign through the academic term prior to their graduation.
For the purpose of this award, college graduating class means all students receiving bachelor's
degrees from the same University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign college between July 1 of
each year and June 30 of the next.
For the purpose of this award, academic term prior to graduation means: for August
graduates, the preceding spring semester; for October graduates, the preceding spring semester;
for January graduates, the preceding summer session; for May graduates, the preceding fall
semester. The list will be determined each year following the availability of grades for the fall
semester.
PHI KAPPA PHI
The national honor society of Phi Kappa Phi recognizes and encourages superior scholarship
in all academic disciplines. To be eligible, juniors (72-89 letter-graded hours) must have a
minimum cumulative grade-point average of 4.75 and a scholastic rank in the upper 5 percent
of the junior class; seniors (90 or more graded hours) must have a minimum cumulative grade-
point average of 4.5 and a scholastic rank in the upper 10 percent of the senior class.
Invitations to membership are mailed to all eligible juniors and seniors and an initiation
program is held near the end of each semester.
THE DEAN'S LIST
The names of undergraduates who have achieved a grade-point average for a given semester
in the top 20 percent of their college class will be included on a list prepared for the dean of
the college. (In the College of Fine and Applied Arts, the names of eligible undergraduates
who have achieved a grade-point average for a given semester in the top 20 percent of all
students in their curriculum will be listed.) This list is publicized within the University and is
sent to news agencies throughout the state. Names of James Scholars are preceded by an
ampersand (8c).
To be eligible for Dean's List recognition, students must complete successfully 14 academic
semester hours of which at least 12 must be taken for letter grade (A, B, C, D, E, Ab). Only
grades in hand at the time the list is compiled will be considered in determining eligibility
unless it can be established the final grade average will be above the minimum required
regardless of the grade eventually received; students with EX, DF, or missing grades will be
added as soon as letter grades are received and eligibility can be determined. Credits earned
during the semester through proficiency, CLEP, and advanced placement examinations may not
be counted toward the 14 semester hour requirement.
Individual colleges may modify the above criteria, and interested students should contact
their college offices for further information.
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has different eligibility requirements that are given
in detail in the LAS Student Handbook.
Reserve Officers' Training Corps
ARMY ROTC 81
NAVAL ROTC 82
AIR FORCE ROTC 84
ARMY ROTC
Military training has been given at the Urbana-Champaign campus since the University opened
in 1868. Originally mandatory for all male undergraduates under the land-grant charter, the
program became entirely voluntary in 1964. The Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps is open
to all university students, regardless of their academic major or level.
Program Description
The Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps is an elective program which provides adventure
training, leadership experiences, and financial support to participating students. This is done
through a consecutive series of elective courses, leadership laboratories, and field trips designed
to prepare young men and women for leadership positions as officers in the United States
Army. The leadership principles and management techniques presented, however, are equally
applicable to success in any field. Financial support is provided by both state and federal
scholarships.
Leadership Training
Classroom theory and practical application is presented in the following areas: motivation,
decision making, leadership, followership, planning and organizing, meeting management,
influencing others, public speaking, and teaching.
Adventure Training
Training in mountaineering techniques (rappelling), land navigation, survival, rifle marksmanship,
and waterborne operar.ons is given to every student. Selected students are given the opportunity
to attend the Army parachute school, arctic operations school, helicopter operations school,
or Ranger school.
Financial Support
There are two scholarship programs which provide support to Army ROTC students. Federal
Scholarships are competitive scholarships available for four, three, or two years (depending on
application time) and provide funds for tuition, books, fees, and a monthly support allowance.
Illinois State Scholarships are also available and provide a waiver of all tuition costs. For
additional scholarship information, see page 67. Over half of all Army ROTC students receive
a scholarship of one type or the other. All third and fourth year cadets receive S100 per month
while in the ROTC program.
Career Opportunities
The training and instruction is designed to prepare students to serve as officers in the U.S.
Army. This may be full-time on active duty or part-time with the Army Reserve or National
Guard. Service with the reserve forces allows pursuit of a civilian career while simultaneously
serving the country as an officer. Approximately one-half of Army ROTC graduates pursue
civilian careers and have discovered that their ROTC leadership training is an invaluable tool
for success.
Program Options
Four year — the student attends one military science course each semester.
Three and one-half year — the student takes rwo military science courses during the first
semester, then one course each semester thereafter.
Three year — the student takes two military science courses per semester during the first year,
then one course each semester thereafter.
82 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Two year — those students with prior military experience (junior ROTC, prior military service)
may skip the first two years of Army ROTC and go right into the last two years. Also, students
who are interested in the program, but were not involved in ROTC during their first two years
of college may join during their last two years by attending a six-week basic camp during the
summer. Attendance at this camp, for which the student receives over $600, is normally
scheduled prior to the beginning of the last two years of ROTC, but may be scheduled between
the third and fourth year.
Academic Program
The first and second year educational program in military science consists of Mil. S. Ill, 113,
121, and 123. These one-hour courses are designed to give students a basic understanding of
the national defense establishment, the role of the U.S. Army, military tactics, and military
related skills.
The third and fourth years of military science, consisting of Mil. S. 231, 233, 241, and 243
are designed to develop the skills and attitudes vital to assuming leadership positions.
A leadership laboratory is required with each academic course. The leadership laboratory is
one hour per week for the first two years and two hours per week the last two years. Instruction
is provided in military skills in a framework that provides maximum opportunities to develop
each student's self-confidence, decisiveness, and leadership potential.
Additional Information
For additional information regarding any of these programs, contact the Professor of Military
Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 113 Armory, 505 East Armory Avenue,
Champaign, IL 61820, telephone: (217) 333-1550.
NAVAL ROTC
The Naval ROTC Program is a professional educational opportunity in which students can
earn a regular or a reserve commission in the United States Navy or Marine Corps while
pursuing a baccalaureate degree. This professional foundation is then developed and broadened
during active service as a commissioned officer after graduation and commissioning. Students
may be enrolled in either the Navy Scholarship Program or the Navy College Program
(nonscholarship). There are four-year programs for entering freshmen and two-year programs
for students who have already completed part of their college education.
For scholarship students, no military obligation is incurred until the beginning of the
sophomore year. College program students incur their military obligation at the commencement
of their junior year. Naval science courses are also open to any student, upon consent of the
Naval Science Department, even though not enrolled in either of these programs.
Four- Year, Navy-Marine Scholarship Program
The Navy-Marine Scholarship Program provides students with full tuition, fees, books, and a
tax-free subsistence pay (currently $100 per month) for up to four years. Students in good
standing and enrolled in a degree program which requires longer than four years to complete
may apply for fifth year scholarship benefits with agreement to serve additional active service
after commissioning or may take a leave of absence of up to a year to finish their baccalaureate
degree. Upon graduation, scholarship students are commissioned in the regular U.S. Navy or
U.S. Marine Corps and serve four years on active duty. Newly commissioned officers who
qualify have the opportunity to continue their education toward an advanced degree.
Scholarship selection in national competition is based on the applicant's Scholastic Aptitude
Test (SAT) or American College Testing (ACT) Program score, high school and college records,
aptitude for naval service as judged by interviews, and by prescribed physical qualifications.
Scholarship students have an opportunity during the summer to practice what they have
learned in the classroom. Three summer training periods of approximately four to six weeks
each are taken by the students either at sea aboard a U.S. Navy vessel, at a naval air station,
squadron, or amphibious base, or on board a nuclear submarine. Students who choose to
enter the U.S. Marine Corps spend their last summer training period at the Marine Corps
Officer Candidate School in Quantico, Virginia.
RESERVE OFFICERS' TRAINING CORPS 83
Four- Year, Navy-Marine College Program
Navy-Marine College Program students receive all required uniforms and naval science textbooks
while enrolled, and a subsistence allowance (currently $100 per month) during their junior and
senior years. It their degree program requires longer than four years to complete, they may
apply for fifth year benefits of subsistence pay with agreement of additional active service after
commissioning or may take a leave of absence of up to a year to finish their baccalaureate
degree. Upon graduation, college program students are commissioned in the U.S. Naval or U.S.
Marine Corps Reserve and serve three of their six-year reserve obligation on active duty.
A student may apply for admission to the college program through the professor of naval
science, who makes the final selection. This selection is based on academic, physical, and
military aptitude criteria. College program students also attend one summer training session,
usually after their junior year.
College program students are eligible to be selected for the scholarship program through
recommendation of the professor of naval science and decision by the chief of naval education
and training. These students are also eligible to receive an Illinois State ROTC Scholarship (if
a resident of this state) after at least one semester in the college program. These scholarships
are awarded annually on a competitive basis and cover tuition only.
Two-Year College Program
This program provides a student with all required uniforms, naval science textbooks, and
subsistence pay (currently $100 per month). Applicants should have two remaining years of
study at the Urbana-Champaign campus. During the summer prior to their junior year, students
attend a six-week course of military instruction at the Naval Science Institute, Newport, Rhode
Island. Transportation costs and a salary are paid to the students. After successful completion,
they join their contemporaries in the college program and are also eligible for appointment to
scholarship status, background and academic performance providing. College program students
participate in a four- to six-week summer at-sea training period between their junior and senior
years, as do their scholarship counterparts.
Two-Year Scholarship Program
Acceptance into the NROTC Two-Year Scholarship Program training option guarantees a
student a two-year NROTC scholarship. Summer training and other benefits, as well as NROTC
training during the junior and senior years, are the same as that for the college and nuclear
power two-year programs. Qualifications for this option include at least one year each of
calculus and physics, with a C average or better. Overall GPA should be C or better with a
preferred major of mathematics, chemistry, physics, or engineering.
State Navy ROTC Scholarship
For information regarding the state Navy ROTC scholarships, see page 67.
Requirements
In addition to mental, physical, and aptitude requirements, NROTC students must:
— Be citizens of the United States (women are eligible to apply for NROTC).
— Be seventeen years of age by September 1 of the year commencing enrollment and not
more than twenty-one years of age by that date (those contemplating a bachelor's degree
that requires five years to complete must be less than twenty years of age on June 30 of
that year). If under eighteen, they must have the consent of their parents. Scholarship
students must be less than twenty-five years of age on June 30 of the calendar year in which
they are commissioned. College program students must meet identical requirements except
that they must be less than twenty-seven-and-a-half years of age on June 30 of the calendar
year in which commissioned.
— Have no moral obligations or personal convictions that will prevent them from executing
the oath of office.
NROTC students have a two-hour laboratory course, N.S. 100, each week for which there
is no credit, and also take the following naval science and University academic courses.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Applicants to teacher education curricula must meet the admission requirements of the colleges
and departments offering the chosen curricula. General admission requirements are presented
in the Admissions Chart which begins on page 10. Students whose cumulative grade-point
average is less than the stated minimum may apply for admission but will be considered
individually on a petition basis if enrollment vacanices exist in the college and curriculum to
which admission is being sought. If admitted, such students may be placed on provisional
status by the Council on Teacher Education.
In compliance with recent state legislation, all students entering teacher education programs
must demonstrate basic proficiency in reading, mathematics, and language arts. Failure to meet
this requirement will jeopardize the student's enrollment in a teacher education curriculum.
Compliance with this mandate is monitored by the Council on Teacher Education. Students
should consult their adviser or the certification officer for further information.
REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTINUATION IN TEACHER EDUCATION
To be eligible for continuation in teacher education, candidates must have a University of
Illinois and cumulative grade-point average of 3.5 (A = 5.0) or higher. In addition, candidates
must meet grade-point requirements specific to their programs. The Council on Teacher
Education reviews each student's academic progress every semester. Students who do not meet
the grade-point average criterion will receive a warning letter from the council advising them
that their entry into student teaching and their receiving a recommendation from the University
for certification are at risk. Students will be directed lo their college dean for more information.
In addition, students are screened just prior to student teaching and just after its completion
by committees of faculty who assess the overall record of their performance in the program.
It is common knowledge that teaching effectiveness is influenced not only by academic
proficiency, but also by the personal characteristics and health of the teacher. Recognizing the
importance of these personal factors, program faculty take them into account in making
judgments of students' progress in the program. In addition, counseling and medical services
are available for all students. Students wishing additional information regarding these services
COUNCIL ON TEACHER EDUCATION 89
may make An appointment by calling the director of student teaching of the Council on Teacher
Education (217) 333-4898, or by visiting 130 Education Building.
Since it is essential that counseling and medical services be offered as soon as the need
becomes apparent, teacher education advisers and faculty are asked to participate in this effort.
Staff members are invited to recommend for assistance or examination any students about
whom concern is felt. Students who are recommended for assistance or examination will
receive a written request to make an appointment to discuss matters in which a counselor or
physician may be of assistance. Students who receive a letter of this nature must respond to
the request as a requirement of the Council on Teacher Education. Failure to respond will
jeopardize the continuation of students in teacher education. During the appointment, students
will be informed of the services available on this campus. The use of these services will usually
be optional. In exceptional cases, however, students may be required to satisfactorily complete
a mental health or physical examination with one of the campus services. Such referrals are
mandatory for students who wish to continue in teacher education.
STUDENT TEACHING
Students should apply for tentative student teaching assignments on completion of 55 semester
hours of credit. Student teaching application forms may be obtained from the appropriate student
teaching office. (Referral to the appropriate office may be obtained by contacting the central
Office of Student Teaching, 130 Education Building, 333-4898.) Normally, after earning 55 semester
hours, each eligible student will receive an invitation to apply for a student teaching assignment.
Students who are eligible to apply for assignment, but who have not received an invitation to
do so, should contact the appropriate office of student teaching early in the fall semester. Students
who will not be on campus during the fall semester, but who expect to enroll in educational
practice (student teaching) during the next school year, should secure application forms from
their office of student teaching before they leave campus. The latest date for any currently
enrolled, eligible student to apply for a student teaching assignment for the next academic year
is the end of the second week in December. Students who apply after this date cannot be
guaranteed a student teaching assignment during the next academic year.
On completion of 75 or more semester hours, students who have submitted an application
will receive student teaching assignments pending verification that they: (1) have completed
methods courses and 100 hours of early field experience, (2) have a University of Illinois and
cumulative grade-point average of 3.5 (A = 5.0) or higher, (3) have the minimum grade-point
average required for their program, and (4) have received recommendations for placement in
student teaching from the appropriate faculty committee.
Only those students officially registered in teacher education curricula are eligible for student
teaching. Students who are on academic or disciplinary probation will not be permitted to
student teach. The Council on Teacher Education reserves the right to deny student teaching
placement to students whose performance in course work or in early field experiences has
been judged to be unsatisfactory by professional standards, including scholarship, ethics, and
responsibility, as determined by faculty and staff in consultation with cooperating school
personnel. Satisfactory performance is not based solely on grades.
Students in teacher education should anticipate and plan for student teaching assignments
off campus. For most students, an additional expense will be incurred during the semester in
which student teaching is scheduled. Only a limited number of student teaching assignments
are available in the vicinity of the campus. Students will be assigned to local schools as student
teachers only in cases of special need. In such cases, attempts will be made to place students
locally; however, this is not always possible due to the limited number of available sites.
Students who wish to complete student teaching through another university, yet receive a
University of Illinois degree and recommendation for certification, must secure the prior
approval of their adviser, college, and the Council on Teacher Education via petition.
TEACHER CERTIFICATION
General Requirements
A student who completes all the course work and other requirements in a program approved
for purposes of certification by the Illinois State Board of Education is entitled to receive the
90 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
recommendation of the University for the appropriate certificate providing the candidate: (1)
is a U.S. citizen (or has filed a Declaration of Intention to become a citizen), is of good
character, good health, and is at least nineteen years of age; (2) is recommended for certification
by his or her program coordinator or department chair based on criteria approved by the
council; (3) has a University of Illinois and cumulative grade-point average of 3.5 (A = 5.0) or
higher; and (4) has the minimum grade-point average required in his or her program.
Please note that, although a student may be denied recommendation for certification, he or
she may be granted a degree. A student who believes that his or her recommendation for
certification has been withheld unjustly may seek redress through the grievance policies
established by the Council on Teacher Education. A copy of the policy and the allied procedures
may be obtained from the executive director of the Council on Teacher Education, 130
Education Building.
Students who enroll in advanced foreign language, chemistry, or mathematics courses as a
result of performance on a placement examination are often eligible to receive prerequisite
credit for teacher certification purposes only. Those who are qualified to receive prerequisite
credit, and who have declared one of these areas as their major or minor, should consult their
teacher education adviser prior to graduation.
Special Education Requirement
Section 21-2a of The School Code of Illinois requires that all individuals applying for teacher
certification after September 1, 1981, successfully complete course work which includes
"instruction on the psychology of the exceptional child, the identification of the exceptional
child . . . and methods of instruction for the exceptional child, including, but not limited to
the learning disabled . . ." Students should contact their advisers to determine the appropriate
course or courses to fulfill this requirement.
Teacher Certification Examinations
Effective July 1, 1988, all applicants for certification as teachers, school administrators, and
school service personnel must pass examinations offered by the Illinois State Board of Education
as a condition for certification. Applicants must pass an examination in basic skills (reading,
writing, grammar and mathematics) and a separate examination in their major area. For further
information, contact the certification officer of the Council on Teacher Education at (217) 333-
7195.
Application Information

Students who wish to teach in the city of Chicago should write to the Department of
Personnel, 1819 West Pershing Road, Chicago, IL 60609. Individuals who intend to teach in
Chicago are urged to apply for both an Illinois and Chicago certificate. After July 1, 1988,
Chicago will no longer maintain separate certification. Individuals teaching in the city will need
to be state certified.
Time Limit on Certification
Because certification requirements are subject to change due to new mandates from the Illinois
State Teacher Certification Board and the Illinois General Assembly, the University of Illinois
is not able to guarantee a recommendation for certification to those who apply for certification
later than one year after graduation from an approved program. Students completing approved
programs are urged to apply for certification during their last term on campus.
Background Investigation on Applicants for Employment
All applicants for employment in a school district in Illinois are required to authorize the
employing school district to initiate a criminal background check. School districts may employ
persons only after a background check has been initiated and may not knowingly employ a
person who has been convicted of a felony or attempting to commit certain offenses enumerated
COUNCIL ON TEACHER EDUCATION 91
in The School Code of Illinois, Although the University of Illinois plays no role in this criminal
background check, students planning to teach in Illinois should be aware of this legislated
requirement.

college departments, with more than 350 courses available in a broad range
of agricultural and agriculture-related disciplines. Individualized programs of
study may be designed to meet the student's particular educational needs,
academic interests, and career goals.
Extensive farms, field sites, experimental and demonstration plots, green-
houses, laboratories, and other educational and research facilities are con-
veniently located on the Urbana-Champaign campus, affording excellent
opportunities for agriculture students to gain "hands on" experience in their
particular areas of study. The college maintains a large collection of books,
periodicals, audiovisuals, and other educational resources in its Agriculture
Library; and microcomputers, data-processing equipment, and a campus-
wide mainframe computer system also are available to supplement and enrich
classroom studies.
The College of Agriculture is nationally and internationally recognized for
its distinguished faculty, innovative programs of study, and pioneering
achievements in teaching, basic and applied research, extension education,
and international agriculture. Under the long-range Food for Century III
program for food-production research, the college has received nearly $60
million since 1978 for the construction of ultramodern laboratories, class-
rooms, greenhouses, and field facilities in the agricultural and food sciences.

Admission Requirements
Minimum requirements for consideration for admission are three years of English, one year
of algebra, and one year of geometry. However, beginning freshmen will be at a disadvantage
if they have not completed at least one year of high school biology and high school chemistry.
Recommended courses:
English: college preparatory, four years
Mathematics: algebra, two years; geometry, one year; trigonometry, one semester; advanced
mathematics, one semester
Foreign language: two years
Science: biology, one year; chemistry, one year
Social studies: two years
132 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Once the high school course work requirements are fulfilled, qualifications for admission
are primarily determined by a combination of class rank at the end of the junior year with
the highest test score (SAT or ACT) on file at the time of the admission decision. These two
factors are used to predict an applicant's likelihood of academic success, and one may help
to offset the other. For example, an applicant may compensate for a lower test score with a
higher class rank.
Transfer applicants must have attained junior standing (60 semester hours of transferable
credit) by their desired date of entry. Lower-division transfer students (less than 60 semester
hours) must petition for admission. Admission is competitive, based upon cumulative grade-
point average. The campus-wide minimum is 3.25 (5.0 = A).

CURRICULUM IN LEISURE STUDIES
The curriculum in leisure studies prepares students to design, manage, and deliver leisure
services to a variety of populations through diverse agency settings. A broad general education
is emphasized and complemented with a core of professional courses. Students may select
from three options:
1. Outdoor recreation planning and management for students desiring to work in national and
state park departments,
2. Program management, which prepares students to manage leisure programs in public or
private agencies, and
3. Therapeutic recreation for students desiring to design and deliver leisure programs to disabled
populations.
All options require 126 credit hours for graduation and the completion of the Professional
Laboratory Experience Program.
APPLIED LIFE STUDIES 135
Professional Laboratory Experience Program
All students in the Department of Leisure Studies must satisfactorily complete the Professional
laboratory Experience Program prior to graduation. The program is designed to augment
formal classroom instruction with active experiential learning under the guidance of an agency-
based supervisor. The program consists of two courses: Lei. St. 280 — Orientation to Practicum,
and Lei. St. 284 — Leisure Studies Practicum.
Students must have achieved senior standing to enroll in the Professional Laboratory
Experience Program, have a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.0, and be in good
standing with the University. Depending on the option selected by the student, other specific
course prerequisites may need to be fulfilled prior to being accepted into the Professional
Laboratory Experience Program. The college statement on supervised field experience applies
to all students participating in the Professional Laboratory Experience Program.
Practicum Related Courses
Students should register for Lei. St. 280 — Orientation to Practicum after achieving junior
standing. As a part of this course, students must document that they have completed a minimum
of 320 hours of actual field work experience in a leisure service agency in a face-to-face service
delivery capacity. During this course, students will make final arrangements for completing Lei.
St. 284 — Leisure Studies Practicum.
The practicum may be taken only after the student has achieved senior standing (90 completed
semester hours), satisfactorily completed Lei. St. 280, and fulfilled other option prerequisites.
The professional field practicum is designed to give the student guided professional experience
prior to graduation. Lei. St. 284 can only be taken in agencies which have been approved and
contracted for this program. The practicum includes a minimum of 640 clock hours of
experience in a nonpaid, internship-type position. No more than 40 hours per week may be
applied to this total.
The last day for a student to apply for placement into a practicum for an academic semester
is Friday of the third week of the preceding academic semester. Students will be cleared for
placement by their academic adviser and must then make application to the coordinator of
the Professional Laboratory Experience Program for a practicum assignment.
Students who are on academic or disciplinary probation or who are on dropped status are
not eligible for completing a practicum during the semester in which the probationary or
dropped status is in effect and are not permitted to engage in practicum activities.
Students should anticipate and plan for off-campus assignments during the semester in which
they will be taking their practicum. Only a limited number of assignments for practicums are
available in the vicinity of campus. It is not currently possible to arrange local assignments for
all whose need would justify such an assignment. For most students, an additional expense
will be incurred during the semester in which the practicum is taken.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS 141
CURRICULA 142
The Institute of Aviation is responsible for the promotion and correlation
of education and research activities related to aviation at the University. Its
director has the advice and assistance of an executive committee. The
institute holds Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airman Examining
(Pilot) Agency Certificate Number 1, which permits it to issue pilot certificates
and ratings to its graduates on behalf of the FAA. A Professional Pilot
curriculum includes training from the private pilot to the airline-transport
pilot level.
The Aircraft Systems curriculum prepares students for the FAA mechanic
certificate with airframe and powerplant ratings. An Avionics curriculum,
with the first year at Parkland College and the second at the Institute of
Aviation, is also available.
The student who wishes to become a professional pilot may also elect
the Professional Pilot/Aircraft Systems curriculum which permits substitution
of flight courses for specified maintenance courses in each semester of the
Aircraft Systems curriculum, permitting the student to work toward the
commercial certificate.
Normally, new freshmen are accepted for admission only in August.
However, a few students are accepted for the spring semester. Intra-University
transfer to the Institute of Aviation may be accomplished as space permits.
Graduating institute students may transfer to any degree-granting division
of the University to complete requirements for a degree in that division.
This may require from three to five additional semesters. A non-Institute of
Aviation student may elect flight courses with the permission of his or her
department.
Special fees ranging from $916 to $1,960 are charged for a course involving
flight training in addition to the estimated costs listed in Table 2 on page
50. These fees are subject to change as operating costs rise.
The institute's Aviation Research Laboratory conducts interdisciplinary
research in many areas related to flight problems. The institute manages
W'illard Airport, located six miles southwest of the Urbana-Champaign
campus. The airport also provides the University and the community with
excellent air transportation facilities.

CURRICULA 146
The purpose of the College of Commerce and Business Administration is to
provide educational experience that will help students develop their poten-
tialities for leadership and service in business, in government, and in teaching
and research. The undergraduate curricula provide a study of the basic
aspects of business and preparation for careers in fields such as accounting,
business management, banking, insurance, and marketing. Students should,
however expect to serve an apprenticeship in the fields they enter if they
aspire to higher positions.
The curricula, leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in one of the
various degree programs in business and economics, are based on four years
of college work. Students are required to elect courses in other colleges of
the University including mathematics, rhetoric, literature, speech, and the
social sciences and to secure as liberal an education as possible to avoid the
narrowing effects of overspecialization. Through a cooperative arrangement
with the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, students in that college may
major in economics or finance.
The College of Commerce and Business Administration offers graduate
and professional programs to students with a bachelor's degree in one of
the areas of business and economics, or in a nonbusiness area such as liberal
arts, science, or engineering. Detailed information on graduate programs may
be obtained from the Graduate College.
DEPARTMENTS AND CURRICULA
Undergraduate instruction in the College of Commerce and Business Administration is organized
under the Departments of Accountancy, Business Administration, Economics, and Finance.
Each of these departments offers courses that provide a field of concentration a student may
elect. These curricula lead to Bachelor of Science degrees in one of the various fields of study
in the college and are designed to encourage each student to fully develop his or her intellectual
capacity. Each curriculum introduces the students to each major subject area in the college
and provides them with the opportunity to major in the area of their choice.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

MATHEMATICS REQUIREMENT
Any of the following sequences meet the College of Commerce and Business Administration
requirement: Math. 135 (5 semester hours); Math. 120, 132 (8 semester hours); Math. 125,
134 (7 semester hours).
New students at this time need only select which mathematics sequence to enter. Decisions
on how far to go in a sequence can be made later as the student gains experience and firms
up career objectives.
The most appropriate mathematics sequence for a student depends on his or her background,
interest, motivation, and objectives. Background can be evaluated in terms of mathematics
courses already completed and the student's score on the Mathematics Placement Test. Interest,
motivation, and objectives must be determined by the student. Three basic sequences are open
to the student. They are:
— Math. 135. A demanding course requiring a previous analytical geometry course. Should be
chosen by students whose interests and objectives require strong mathematics.
— Math. 120, 132. This sequence is appropriate for students whose background is good but
who have not had analytical geometry or who feel a somewhat less demanding sequence
is preferable.
— Math. 125, 134. This sequence provides the student with a good background, but since the
pace is slower it may not sufficiently challenge the very good or previously well-prepared
student.
Curricula
Normally, students must register for not less than 12 hours or more than 18 hours in each
semester. Students should take mathematics, economics, and accountancy courses in the
semesters indicated in the sample schedule of courses. The computer science course must be
taken during the first year. A required course that is failed must be repeated the following

CURRICULUM IN ACCOUNTANCY
For the degree of Bachelor of Science in Accountancy
In economically advanced societies, accounting plays an increasingly important role. As
organizations and societies grow in size and complexity, there is a growing need for relevant
and reliable quantitative information about their progress and status. This information is an
important aid to business managers, investors, and others in (1) planning decisions regarding
the use of resources (financial, physical, and human); (2) controlling decisions regarding actions
to accomplish the plans; and (3) evaluating decisions regarding the actual peformance. The
accountant assists in identifying the information appropriate for a particular decision, participates
in the accumulation of this information, and is responsible for reporting and interpreting it.
The providing of such information is important to those who manage economic activity as
well as to those interested in the results. Accountants perform this function in both business
and nonbusiness organizations.
Closely allied to accounting are the fields of information systems, auditing, and taxation.
Each field requires additional education. Accountants who specialize in information systems
are concerned with the design and control of the system that provides the information.
Accountants who specialize in auditing are concerned with verifying the propriety of the
information and may attest to its reliability in reports accompanying those issued by management
of their accountability for the use of resources. Accountants who specialize in taxation assist
in tax planning, return preparation, and the development of regulations. These accountants
may be employed internally by an organization, by a governmental unit, or by an independent
public accounting firm.
Study in accountancy is offered in seven areas: financial accounting, managerial accounting,
international accounting, not-for-profit accounting, taxation, information systems, and auditing.
Courses are available in each of these areas at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.
Minimum requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree in Accountancy are: Accy. 211,
Accy. 221, Accy. 311, Accy. 331, Econ. 300, and three additional accountancy courses. Accy.
199, up to 4 hours, may count as one course. Additional credit in Accy. 199 will be allowed
only with the permission of the department head.
Econ. 300 and accountancy courses may not be taken on a credit-no credit basis. A limit
of 33 hours of accountancy courses may be counted toward the Bachelor of Science in
Accountancy degree.
CURRICULUM IN BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
For the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration
The Department of Business Administration offers five separate undergraduate programs:
marketing, organizational administration, production, management science, and industrial
distribution management. Marketing encompasses those business activities directly related to
the process of placing meaningful assortments of goods and services in the hands of the
consumer. The marketing student is concerned with the efficient performance of marketing
activities and with their effective coordination with the other operations of the firm. Organi-
zational administration is concerned primarily with the effective utilization of human resources
within the business organization. Attention is focused on the organization as a social system
and the forces that affect this system such as the behavior of individuals and groups, economic
conditions, and technology. The study of production is concerned primarily with the efficient
utilization of the organization's material resources. Attention is focused on the design and
improvement of productive capacity and the coordination of the production process with other
system activities.
Management science is concerned with mathematics underlying management decision making.
Attention is given to statistics, various optimization techniques, and other forms of mathematical
modeling. The Industrial Distribution Management Program stresses the distribution and

CURRICULUM IN ECONOMICS
For the degree of Bachelor of Science in Economics
Economics has been described as the study of how people use limited resources to produce
various commodities and to distribute them to members of society for their consumption.
Accordingly, the economist is concerned with what is produced, how goods and services are
distributed, the organization of industries, the labor supply and its use, international trade, the
production and distribution of national income and wealth, government finance, and the use
and conservation of land and natural resources.
The student majoring in economics establishes a core of knowledge by taking courses in
intermediate theory and statistics. The student may then specialize by selecting course work
in areas such as taxation and government finance, international economics, economic history,
labor economics, economic development, urban and regional economics, quantitative eco-
nomics, government and economics activity, or transportation economics.
An economics major is well prepared for a broad range of professional careers. Economics
provides excellent training for further study in an M.B.A., or law program, or graduate work
in areas such as economics, planning and administration, or policy studies. Career opportunities
include management positions in business, industry, and government; teaching or administrative
positions in colleges or universities; and research positions in private or public institutions.
Requirements for the degree include Economics 300-301 and 12 additional hours in
economics. Students with strong math backgrounds or interest in further work in economics
are advised (but not required) to fulfill the college mathematics requirement with Math. 120-
132 or Math. 135 and to take additional training in courses such as Math. 242 or 245 and
315.
CURRICULUM IN FINANCE
For the degree of Bachelor of Science in Finance
The field of finance is primarily concerned with the acquisition of capital funds for business,
public, or personal use. A new business, for example, must secure sufficient funds to initiate
COMMERCE AND BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION 151
rod maintain operations until the cash thm from sales is great enough to maintain capital
requirements. Established businesses seek financial advice when considering the purchase <>t
new equipment, the selection of I new plant location, or the expansion of present facilities,
Business policy decisions which result in changes in the capital structure of the business are
oi special importance to finance.
A student who majors in finance may specialize in finance, investment, and banking; insurance
AUiS risk management; or real estate and urban land economics.
As the study ot finance is designed to provide the student with both the theoretical
background and the analytical tools required to make effective judgments in finance, many
students select careers in business financial management, commercial or investment banking,
government finance, insurance, or real estate.
One of the following concentrations is required for the degree.

CURRICULA 157
For students with two years of college and a commitment to a career in
communications, the College of Communications offers an additional two
years of education leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Science in Advertising,
in Journalism, and in Media Studies.
Through its educational programs, the college aims at giving students in
advertising and journalism professional competence in their chosen fields of
communications. At the same time, it seeks to help them acquire a solid
background in the social sciences and humanities. Its premise is that students
need an understanding of people and the world they live in if they are to
communicate effectively through print and broadcast media.
Through its media studies program, the college aims at giving students
the opportunity to study, analyze, and critique modern communications
media, again based on a firm foundation in the social sciences and humanities.
The college has modern equipment and facilities for teaching future
communications workers — newsrooms, a photographic darkroom, a ty-
pography laboratory, an advertising layout laboratory, an audio laboratory,
and a video laboratory. Students also use the facilities of the community
CATV studio for laboratory instruction. The Communications Library is
generally recognized as one of the best in the nation. The college maintains
a job placement service for its graduates.
The college is also the supervising administrative unit for the University
Broadcasting Division and the Institute of Communications Research.
Instruction in journalism at the University was begun in 1902 as part of
the courses in rhetoric and was organized as a division of the Department
of English in 1916. The School of Journalism was established in 1927 as a
separate unit. In 1950, it became the School of Journalism and Communi-
cations with divisions of journalism, advertising, and radio, the last of which
later added instruction in television. In 1957, the school was elevated to
college status. Two years later the college's three divisions were redesignated
departments. The present name — College of Communications — was
adopted in 1968.
DEPARTMENTS AND CURRICULA
Through irs two academic departments, the college offers professional education in three
sequences which have been accredited by the American Council on Education for Journalism
— advertising, news-editorial, and broadcast journalism.
The Department of Advertising supervises work in the advertising curriculum for students
154 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
expecting to enter advertising agencies or the advertising departments of communications
media, industrial organizations, or retail stores. The department aims to educate analytical,
flexible, and creative professionals who are able to deal with current and future advertising
problems.
The Department of Journalism seeks to prepare students for varied and long-term careers
in print and electronic journalism. The primary professional aim of the news-editorial sequence
is to train public affairs reporters by providing them with the skills, knowledge, and understanding
required of successful journalists. The broadcast journalism sequence aims to prepare broadly
educated professionals who will eventually assume decision-making and leadership roles.
The media studies curriculum, a nonprofessional program supervised by the dean of the
college, is designed to give students concentrated formal academic study in the development
of the communications media and their underlying technologies.
The Departments of Advertising and Journalism offer graduate programs leading to the
degrees of Master of Science in Advertising and in Journalism. The college offers an
interdisciplinary program leading to the Doctor of Philosophy in Communications under the
direction of the Institute of Communications Research.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
For admission to the College of Communications, a student must complete 60 semester hours
of acceptable undergraduate college work and present a grade-point average of at least 4.0 (A
= 5.0) and evidence of interest in a professional career in communications. The competitive
G.P.A. in recent years has been higher. Applicants with less than a 4.0 may be considered if
they demonstrate strong career motivation and aptitude, provided spaces are available.
Since they must have junior standing to be eligible to enter the College of Communications,
students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are advised to register as freshmen
and sophomores in the prejournalism curriculum of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences
and to follow a broad general-education program. Students at other institutions should follow
similar programs.
Although there is no formal preadvertising or prejournalism program, a recommended
program for each college curriculum for the first two years is available in the college office.
These programs include basic courses in economics, English, history, philosophy, sociology,
and anthropology, as well as courses satisfying the University's general education requirements.
Students who do not have a reasonable degree of typing ability must acquire this skill before
entering the college as it is required in all curricula. A basic course in computer science also
would be useful.
Students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign should make arrangements at the
college office to apply for transfer into the college before the advance enrollment period in
the semester in which they will earn junior standing. Junior standing is necessary for students
to take most courses offered by the College of Communications.
Students completing their freshman and sophomore studies at institutions other than the
University of Illinois are strongly advised to defer courses in advertising, journalism, and
communications until enrolled in the College of Communications. Students must take all of
their required communications courses in the College of Communications. They may be
permitted to transfer up to 9 hours of elective communications courses taken elsewhere,
provided they take an equivalent number of additional hours in advanced social studies, arts,
and sciences beyond the 20 semester hours required for graduation from the college.
The college does not recommend that students with more than 90 hours enter any of its
undergraduate programs. The programs are set up on a four-semester basis. In certain cases it
is possible to complete the requirements of its curricula in three semesters if prerequisites in
sequential courses can be met. The college does not accept students who have already received
a bachelor's degree as candidates for a second bachelor's degree. Instead, it recommends that
such students enter one of its graduate programs.
HONORS PROGRAMS
Edmund J. James Scholars
The College of Communications does not have a college honors program. However, students
who transfer into the College of Communications from another college on the Urbana-
COMMUNICATIONS 155
t_ hampaign campus tnd W* Jaincs Scholars in their previous colleges at the time of transfer
will continue to be listed as Jama Scholars in the College of Communications through the
end of their first spring semester in the college. If they have a cumulative average of 4.5 (A =
u that time, they will be certified as James Scholars for the academic year and continued
una Scholars through the next academic year when their records will be reviewed for
certification. Any student whose cumulative average falls below 4.5 will not be certified and
will be removed from the James Scholars listing. Designation as James Scholars is available
only to those students who were previously so designated.
Dean's List
To be eligible for Dean's List recognition, students must rank in the top 20 percent of their
respective classes and must successfully complete 14 academic hours of which at least 12 hours
must be traditionally graded hours (excluding course work graded pass-fail, credit-no credit,
satisfactory unsatisfactory, excused, or deferred) and excluding grades and hours in basic
physical education courses and religious foundation courses.
Honors at Graduation
For graduation with Honors, a student must have been named to the Dean's List of the College
of Communications for at least three semesters while enrolled in the College of Communications,
must rank in the upper 20 percent of the student's graduation class, and must have earned a
minimum grade-point average of 4.50 in all courses taken after admission to the College of
Communications. For graduation with High Honors, a student must have been named to the
Dean's List of the College of Communications for at least three semesters, must rank in the
upper 10 percent of the student's graduation class, and must have earned a minimum grade-
point average of 4.70 in all courses taken after admission to the College of Communications.
For graduation with Highest Honors, a student must have been named to the Dean's List of
the College of Communications for at least three semesters, must rank in the upper 5 percent
of the student's graduation class, and must have earned a minimum grade-point average of
4.80 in all courses taken after admission to the College of Communications.
Kappa Tau Alpha
Each year, scholastically high-ranking undergraduate and graduate students in the College of
Communications are considered for membership in Kappa Tau Alpha, national honorary society
in journalism. The society was founded to recognize and promote scholarship in advertising,
journalism, and broadcasting.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
The college offers programs of study leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Advertising,
Journalism, or Media Studies. To meet the degree requirements, all students must satisfy general
University requirements as to registration, residence, scholarship, and fees. They must complete
the rhetoric requirement and approved sequences in the humanities, social sciences, and natural
sciences as listed under University General Education Requirements on page 156. All students
must also fulfill the following general requirements of the College of Communications:
— Complete a total of 124 semester hours of course credit. Basic physical education activity
courses and basic courses in military, naval, or air force science may not be counted toward
this total although such credits may be counted toward meeting the admission requirement
of 60 semester hours. No more than a total of 12 hours earned in undergraduate open
seminars (199 courses), in independent study courses outside the college, and in other
experimental courses may be counted toward the degrees offered by the college. Students
in the college may enroll in one such course for a maximum of 4 hours credit in any
semester with the consent of the head of the student's major department. The same policy
is applied to credit for internships in fields other than communications with the additional
requirement that such courses must also be approved by the dean of the college. While
the college encourages its students to hold internships in the communications field, particularly
in the summer between the junior and senior years, it does not allow academic credit
156 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
toward the degree for such experience alone. Credit granted by other institutions for
internships is not accepted.
— Complete not less than 30 hours but not more than 36 hours in courses offered by the
college in advertising, communications, and journalism. Undergraduate courses cross-listed
with advertising or journalism courses are considered college course offerings. Undergraduate
communications courses cross-listed only with departments outside the college are not
counted as college offerings except Comm. 322.
— Complete not less than 20 hours in advanced (200- and 300-level) courses at the University
of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the social studies, arts, and sciences approved by the
faculty. The human resources and family studies minor may be substituted for the requirement
of 20 hours in advanced social studies, arts, and sciences by advertising and journalism
majors.
— Complete the specific requirements of one of the curricula offered by the college as listed
below.
— Earn a grade-point average of 3.0 (A = 5.0) in all courses presented for the degree. In

CURRICULA 187
The College of Engineering prepares men and women for professional careers
in engineering and for responsible positions of a technical and semitechnical
character in industry, commerce, education, and government. The college
provides training in the mathematical and physical sciences and their appli-
cation to a broad spectrum of technological and social requirements of
society. The engineering curricula, though widely varied and specialized, are
built on a general foundation of scientific theory applicable to many different
fields. Work in the classroom and laboratory is brought into sharper focus
by practical problems that the student solves by methods similar to those
of practicing engineers.
While each student pursues a curriculum chosen to meet his or her own
career goals, all students take certain common courses. Basic courses in
mathematics, chemistry, physics, rhetoric, and computer science are required
in the first two years. Although the curricula are progressively specialized in
the third and fourth years, each student is required to take some courses
outside his or her chosen field.
Nontechnical courses are included in each curriculum; they may be required
or elective. Many nontechnical courses satisfy the broad objectives of the
humanities and social sciences requirements of the engineering curricula —
making the student keenly aware of the urgent problems of society and
developing a deeper appreciation of man's cultural achievements. The hu-
manities and social sciences courses are usually drawn from the liberal arts
and sciences, economics, and approved courses in fine and applied arts.
Students who wish a broader cultural background should consider a combined
engineering-liberal arts and sciences program; see page 178.
The Engineering Library, on the first three floors of Engineering Hall, is
a major resource center for students of all curricula. It contains the reference
books, periodicals, catalogs, and technical publications that students need
constantly, and also provides for general reading and private research.
DEPARTMENTS AND CURRICULA
The College of Engineering includes the Departments of Aeronautical and Astronautical
Engineering, Ceramic Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical and Computer
Engineering, General Engineering, Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, Metallurgy and
Mining Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, Physics, and Theoretical and Applied Mechanics.
The undergraduate curricula described later in this section are administered by these units.
The work in chemical engineering is administered by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
176 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
The curriculum in agricultural engineering is administered jointly by the Colleges of Agriculture
and Engineering.
The ABET listing of the programs of the College of Engineering, required by the Engineering
Accreditation Commission, is: Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering bdC [1950];1 Agri-
cultural Engineering bdC [1950]; Ceramic Engineering bdC [1936]; Chemical Engineering bdC
[1936]; Civil Engineering bdC [1936]; Computer Engineering bdC [1978]; Electrical Engineering
bdC [1936]; Engineering Mechanics bdC [I960]; General Engineering bdC [1936]; Industrial
Engineering bdC [I960]; Mechanical Engineering bdC [1936]; Metallurgical Engineering bdC
[1936]; and Nuclear Engineering bdC [1978].
Each student entering the College of Engineering declares his or her choice of a curriculum.
All first-year students follow the common program for freshmen shown below.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Entering Freshmen
Students seeking admission to the College of Engineering who are recent high school graduates
or who have earned less than 12 semester hours of credit at other collegiate institutions are
classified as new freshmen and must meet the entrance requirements to the College of
Engineering that are specified for new freshmen. (See the Admissions Chart on page 12.)
Students are admitted to the college on a best-qualified basis as determined by ACT composite
scores and high school percentile ranks supplied on high school transcripts.
Although new freshmen take a common, or similar, program (shown below), they are asked
to choose a curriculum in which they wish to study. Freshmen may change their curriculum
of study at their own request at specified times during their freshman year of study. Since the
program of study is essentially the same for all freshman students, such changes can be made
without loss of credit toward graduation.
The Mathematics Placement Test is required of all freshman students entering the College
of Engineering, and they are urged to take the examination during the spring testing period
prior to enrollment.
The Chemistry Placement Test is required of all entering freshmen who will take freshman
chemistry during their first year. This examination will be used to place a student in a
background course for engineers, Chem. 100, or in the normal beginning course for engineers,
Chem. 101. Students with a superior background in chemistry may take the Chemistry Proficiency
Test which, if passed, would place them in Chem. 102 and grant them 3 hours proficiency
credit for Chem. 101; the additional 1 hour must be made up as a free elective. Students
having CEEB advanced placement credit in mathematics, chemistry, or physics (see pages 34
and 36) will receive credit toward graduation and will be placed in advanced course work
consistent with their academic preparation.

requirements of the ABET criteria
ENGINEERING 177
transfer to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with little or no loss of credit
provided they follow a program similar to the one in the College of Engineering. Following
is a suggested list of courses which should be completed in the first two years prior to transfer.
A range ot hours is given in each of these course work areas, as the major concern is that
students have an adequate coverage of basic subject matter rather than specific numbers of
hours in given areas. The range is given for students who may be attending schools on either
the quarter-hour or semester-hour system.

OTHER COURSES Quarter Hours Semester Hours
Social sciences and humanities Varies Varies
Statistics 4 3
Students should complete as many of the suggested courses as possible and select additional
course work from those listed as Other Courses above to complete full-time study programs.
Normally, a student will complete all of the suggested courses and 8 to 10 additional semester
hours of course work. This additional course work may include social sciences and humanities
electives, but could include work in computer science or advanced mathematics.
Before selecting social sciences and humanities electives, students should familiarize themselves
with the elective requirements of the college listed on 181 through 183. Students seeking
transfer to the college must have a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.50 (A = 5.0)
to apply, but competitive standards for admission are usually higher than the 3.5 level.
Students may transfer to the college for the fall, spring, or summer session provided the
students have met competitive GPA cutoffs and have completed 60 or more semester hours
of work. Transfer students are expected to have also completed the basic mathematics (through
calculus), physics, and chemistry sequences in the 60 or more semester hours required for
transfer. Transfer students starting their studies in the fall semester are also allowed to advance
enroll during the preceding summer. Students are informed of this opportunity after they are
admitted. Questions are invited concerning this procedure.
A few sophomore-level technical courses, such as E.E. 260, M.E. 220, and C.E. 195, may
not be offered by most community colleges. However, junior-level transfer students can usually
arrange their programs here so that all technical requirements can be completed in a four-
semester period on this campus if they wish to do so. If the number of hours remaining to
complete a degree requires more than four semesters, the student may enroll for an additional
summer session or semester.
Students transferring to the College of Engineering are encouraged to write to the Office of
the Associate Dean, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 207 Engineering Hall, 1308
West Green Street, Urbana, IL 61801, or to the head of the department to which they wish
to transfer, at any time they desire guidance in the selection of courses. It is recommended
that a student complete all sequences in mathematics, physics, and chemistry at one institution
in order to maintain proper continuity. In cases where this is not possible, a student may enroll
in a summer session to make up deficiencies.
Transfer students are not required to take freshman guidance examinations, or any other
examinations, to qualify for admission to the College of Engineering; but all other admission
regulations apply to them. Transfer students should consult Admission of Transfer Students
on page 21 for general information concerning transfer to the University of Illinois at Urbana-
178 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Champaign, and students from community colleges should note especially the rules regarding
community colleges on pages 22 through 23.
SPECIAL PROGRAMS
Combined Engineering-Liberal Arts and Sciences Program
A five-year program of study permits a student to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in a field
of engineering from the College of Engineering and a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science
degree from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the Urbana-Champaign campus.
This program affords students the opportunity to prepare for careers of an interdisciplinary
nature. By selecting an appropriate liberal arts and sciences major in combination with the
desired engineering curriculum, it is possible for students to qualify for new and unique careers
in industry, business, or government. Students who desire a broader background than it is
possible to provide in the four-year engineering curricula can develop a program that includes
a well-rounded cultural education in addition to an engineering specialty. Each student must
file an approved program with the engineering college office and with the liberal arts and
sciences college office.
Advisers in both colleges assist in planning a program of study to meet the needs and
requirements for both degrees. Most combinations of engineering and liberal arts curricula
may be completed in ten semesters, provided the student does not have deficiencies in the
entrance requirements of either college.
Most engineering curricula can be combined with one of a variety of liberal arts and sciences
majors including languages, social sciences, humanities, speech communication, and philosophy.
This combined program operates under the following conditions:
— Students entering the program must meet admission requirements for both colleges. (See
the Admissions Chart on pages 12, 13, and 14.)
— A student who starts in the program and decides to transfer from it is subject to the existing
graduation requirements of the college of his or her choice.
— The degrees of Bachelor of Science in Engineering and Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of
Science in Liberal Arts and Sciences are awarded simultaneously. No student in the combined
program is permitted to receive a degree from either college before the completion of the
entire program.
— Participants are required to complete the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences foreign
language graduation requirement. Also, an approved sequence of courses in the biological
sciences is required.
— Students electing advanced ROTC or NROTC are required to meet these commitments in
addition to the combined program as outlined.
— Students having 75 or more hours of transfer credit are not advised to enter this program
since they cannot ordinarily complete it in five years.
— Students transferring from other colleges and universities must plan to complete at least
one year in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Urbana-Champaign and one year in
the College of Engineering at Urbana-Champaign in order to satisfy residence requirements
if both degrees are to be granted here. Other students should plan to spend a minimum of
two years in each college.
— Students are expected to maintain at least a 3.5 (A = 5.0) grade-point average to be accepted
or continued in the program. A higher grade-point average may be required in the future.
During the first year, students are enrolled in the common freshman program for engineers
which is taken in the College of Engineering. (See page 176.) Students are enrolled in the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for the second and third years and in the College of
Engineering for the fourth and fifth years. A typical combined program follows.

It may be necessary to adjust the above program to allow the student to take more hours
in the L.A.S. program.
For further information about this program, students should write to the Office of the
Associate Dean in either the College of Engineering or the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences
at the Urbana-Champaign campus.
Affiliations with Other Liberal Arts Colleges
Through a program of affiliation between the College of Engineering and a number of liberal
arts colleges, students may enroll in a five-year program and earn a bachelor's degree from
one of these colleges and at the same time earn a bachelor's degree in engineering from the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In general, students spend the first three years at
the liberal arts college and the final two years at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
At the time of transfer, students must meet competitive transfer admission requirements.
Increasing numbers of engineering graduates enter leadership roles in industry' and government
and require a greater understanding of the impact of technology on society. The five-year
program encourages a student to develop a broad understanding of the social sciences and
humanities while he or she strives for excellence in technical studies. These affiliations have
the added benefit of allowing the student to take his or her preengineenng studies at a liberal
arts school chosen on the basis of geographical location, prestige, religious principles, family
circumstances, or other personal reasons.

Cooperative Engineering Education Program
A five-year program in cooperative engineering education is available to students in all curricula
in the college. Students in the program alternate periods of attendance at the University with
periods of employment in industry or government. The employment, which is an essential
element in the educational process, is with the same company each work period and is related
to the student's field of study. These assignments increase in difficulty and responsibility with
each succeeding period off campus. A list of participating employers may be obtained by
writing to the Cooperative Engineering Director, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign,
207 Engineering Hall, 1308 West Green Street, Urbana, IL 61801.
Students wishing to join the program must first enroll in the College of Engineering at the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. If accepted by a participating employer, freshmen
will have their first off-campus educational assignment scheduled during the summer following
their freshman year or they will attend the summer session and have their first off-campus
assignment during the fall semester following their freshman year. Typical schedules are
illustrated in a co-op brochure available from the cooperative engineering office.
Sophomores and advanced undergraduates are eligible for the program, which will still
require five years to complete, but they will have fewer off-campus assignments.
Students enrolled in the cooperative education program are registered in the University and
are considered full-time students for the entire five years required by the program. Appropriate
entries indicating participation in the co-op program are entered on the student's official
transcript each semester and summer that he or she is enrolled. Upon successful completion
of the program, the student is awarded a certificate signed by the dean of the college and the
off-campus co-op coordinator, in addition to receiving the regular diploma awarded for
completing the degree requirements.
College Option in Bioengineering
Bioengineering is a broad, interdisciplinary field that brings together engineering, biology, and
medicine to create new techniques, new devices, and new understanding of living systems to
improve the quality of human life. Its practice ranges from the fundamental study of the
behavior of biological materials to the design and development of medical instruments.
Any of the existing engineering curricula can provide a good foundation for work in
bioengineering. However, the engineering undergraduate needs additional education in the
biologically oriented sciences to obtain a strong background for bioengineering. With such a
background, the student should be able to progress rapidly on the graduate level in any branch
of bioengineering. In industry, the graduate will be competent to handle engineering tasks
related to biology.
The courses shown below have been selected specifically for the undergraduate engineering
student. There are three possible alternatives which can be selected to meet the individual
student's plans, designated A, B, and C. The listing of bioengineering courses is not complete,
but represents examples of courses which are currently available. An additional course in
organic chemistry would be required for entrance to most medical schools. A minimum of 16
hours is required for the option. To obtain recognition for the bioengineering option, students
must register in the Office of the Associate Dean, 207 Engineering Hall.

College Option in Polymer Science and Engineering
Polymer science and engineering is a broad interdisciplinary field bringing together various
aspects of chemistry, physics, and engineering for the understanding, development, and
application of the materials science of polymers. Many of the existing engineering curricula
provide a good foundation for work in polymer science and engineering. However, the
undergraduate needs additional courses specifically dealing with the science and engineering of
large molecules. With such a background, the student should be able to progress rapidly in
industry or on the graduate level. In addition to those students specifically desiring a career in
polymers, this option can also be valuable to students interested in the development, design,
and applications of materials in general.
The courses listed below have been selected specifically to give an undergraduate student a
strong background in polymer science and engineering. A minimum of 8 courses is required,
several of which the student would normally take to satisfy the requirements of the basic
degree. To obtain recognition for the polymer science and engineering option, students must
register in the Office of the Associate Dean, 207 Engineering Hall. The student should also
consult a member of the Polymer Group faculty when considering the option and deciding
on a program.

College Option in Manufacturing Engineering
A manufacturing engineering option is being developed that will include a college-wide
integrated manufacturing engineering education laboratory facility. This option will be comprised
of course work specifically designed to meet the broad multidisciplinary needs of manufacturing
engineering.
Courses currently under development include: Introduction to Manufacturing Systems
Engineering; Modeling and Simulating Methods: Information Management; Decision-making
and Control in Manufacturing Systems; Interfacing Methods; and Processing and Handling of
Materials.
The option will also draw on a large base of established and emerging courses that are pan
of the existing disciplinary patterns across the College of Engineering. Further information is
available in 207 Engineering Hall.
Thesis
A senior of high standing in any curriculum, with the approval of the department concerned,
may substitute for one or more technical courses an investigation of a special subject and
write a thesis.
Curriculum Modification
Students interested in modifying their curriculum may do so by checking with their department
and advisers to determine the petition procedures for making curriculum modifications.
Special Curricula
Students of high scholastic achievement, with exceptional aptitudes and interests in special
fields of engineering and their application, may be permitted to vary the course content of the
standard curriculum in order to emphasize some phases not included or not encompassed by
the usual course substitution and selection of electives. These unwritten curricula, however,
ENGINEERING 183
include all the fundamental courses of the standard curricula, the variations being made mainly
in the so-called applicator)- portions of the standard curricula of the college. The program of
study of each student permitted to take such a special curriculum must be approved by a
committee of the college, in consultation with the head of the department in which the student
is registered, and with a faculty member of the college. This faculty member automatically
becomes the student's adviser in charge of registration and other matters pertaining to the
approved program.
Advanced ROTC Training Combined with Engineering
Students in the College of Engineering may elect to participate in the Reserve Officers' Training
Program and earn a commission in the United States Army Reserve, United States Air Force
Reserve, or the United States Naval Reserve. A commission is awarded simultaneously with
the awarding of the Bachelor of Science degree in an engineering field. Participation in these
programs is limited to students who apply and are selected by the Army, Air Force, or Navy
units at the University. A monthly stipend is paid to those selected for advanced military
training.
These programs require from one to three summer camps or cruises as well as the earning
of a specified number of credits in advanced military courses. Credits earned appear in all
academic averages computed by the College of Engineering. Basic military (first 4 hours of
freshman or sophomore course work) does not count toward graduation. Certain curricula
may use only a limited number of these credits in fulfillment of graduation requirements.
Students should plan on taking nine semesters to obtain both a bachelor's degree in engineering
and a commission in the ROTC program. For further information on these programs, write
directly to the Professor of Military Science, the Professor of Aerospace Studies, or the
Professor of Naval Science. (See pages 81 through 86.)
Exchange Scholarships at Munich and Darmstadt, West Germany
The College of Engineering has exchange scholarships with the Technical University in Munich,
West Germany, and the Technische Hochschule Darmstadt in Darmstadt, West Germany. Under
the terms of the scholarship, two University of Illinois students are given tuition scholarships
at the Technical University in Munich and two are given scholarships at the Technische
Hochschule Darmstadt. Stipends to cover living expenses for the year are included in the
Munich program. Students selected by the Technical University in Munich and by the Technische
Hochschule Darmstadt receive tuition scholarships at the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign. Equivalent cash stipends are awarded to the Munich students. Students are
responsible for their own transportation expenses.
Students eligible for study at the Technical University in Munich must be enrolled in one
of the following curricula: civil engineering, electrical engineering, industrial engineering,
mechanical engineering, metallurgical engineering, nuclear engineering, or engineering physics.
Students eligible for study at the Technische Hochschule Darmstadt must be enrolled in one
of the following curricula: civil engineering, chemical engineering, computer science, electrical
engineering, industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, or physics. It is expected that the
full year's study abroad will be used toward graduation in the student's curriculum at Urbana-
Champaign.
To participate in the programs, a student must have completed Ger. 104 or the equivalent
(additional courses in German are recommended) and have finished his or her sophomore
studies in engineering at the Urbana-Champaign campus. In addition, the student must be an
outstanding scholar who will be an excellent representative of the University of Illinois and
must be a U.S. citizen.
The programs are under the general administration of the Engineering College Honors
Council, although a recipient need not be an honors student if he or she has an outstanding
undergraduate record.
On-the-Job Training in Foreign Countries
IAESTE (International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience) is
a private, nonprofit organization which enables students of engineering, architecture, and the
sciences to obtain on-the-job training in foreign countries. Any student, undergraduate or
184 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
graduate, who is enrolled in good standing at the University and who has completed at least
the sophomore year of study may apply. Generally, the maintenance allowance is adequate to
cover living expenses while in training but does not cover transportation costs. Further
information about these opportunities may be obtained from the College of Engineering.
International Minor in Engineering
Many College of Engineering graduates will be involved in international activities during their
professional careers. In anticipation of such involvement, the college offers an opportunity for
students to complete an International Minor in any of the regular degree programs offered.
More than 95 percent of the engineering students have had language training in high school,
and this program allows them to continue their studies in related areas. The requirements for
the completion of the International Minor are as follows. The student must:
— complete all degree requirements in the student's selected engineering discipline;
— complete foreign language studies in a language of a chosen geographical area (language
level required will vary with the geographical area selected);
— complete a minimum of 21 hours of cultural or language studies related to the geographical
area of concentration; nine hours must be other than language credit and include one or
more 300-level courses;
— complete a period of involvement in a work period, a study period, an internship, or other
form of involvement of at least eight weeks in the geographical area of concentration.
Students will be expected to select a specific geographical area for concentration which will
be recognized in the designation of the minor such as International Minor — Latin American
Studies. Course work selected for the minor must be approved by the Office of the Associate
Dean, 207 Engineering Hall. A list of suggested courses is available from that office.
Through its association with the International Association for the Exchange of Students for
Technical Experience (IAESTE), the college can assist students in gaining some work oppor-
tunities in other countries and also in participating in educational exchange programs at
institutions in other countries that will assist the student in meeting the "period of involvement."
Students having foreign language backgrounds prior to entering the college will normally be
able to complete the program in four academic years. Those not having this background, or
taking a year of study in a foreign institution, may take four-and-one-half to five years.
French Educational Exchange Program
Six College of Engineering students may participate in this French exchange program annually
with two at each of these universities:
Institut National Polytechnique de Lorraine, Nancy
Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussees, Paris
Universite de Technologie de Compiegne, Compiegne
Each student should be a junior and should have credit for at least the equivalent of Fr. 104.
One or two semesters is available to each student with tuition and certain academic-related
expenses provided.
Summer Exchange Program in China
To introduce College of Engineering students to Chinese culture and language, this program
was developed with Nanjing University; the first exchange occurred in the summer of 1986.
One or two other locations are being considered for future exchanges. This opportunity is
mainly to learn about the people of China during a nine-week period, to study the language,
and to work in a limited way with technology aspects. Two weeks are set aside for travel to
interesting places. A five-credit course in Chinese is required prior to departing. Lodging, meals,
and medical care are provided.
Other Study Abroad Exchange Programs
Many exchange programs with educational institutions throughout the world are available for
engineering students on this campus. The College of Engineering works closely with the Study
Abroad Office in developing programs of study in which course credits can be transferred to
this campus. The College of Engineering is planning future programs with Japan (Konan and
ENGINEERING 185
Nihon Universities), Colombia (University of the Andes), Brazil (Pontificia Universidade), and
Catolica do Rio de Janeiro, and other institutions in foreign countries. Further information
about these programs may he obtained from the College of Engineering.
Elmendorf World Citizenship Travel Awards
An alumnus of the College of Engineering, Edward Elmendorf, established a fund to encourage
engineering students to seek an understanding of the responsibilities of world citizenship.
Engineering students traveling abroad as pan of the educational programs sponsored by the
College of Engineering are eligible for some financial aid. These funds do have certain
requirements for qualification. Further information about these travel awards may be obtained
from the College of Engineering.
HONORS PROGRAMS
Honors at Graduation
Honors awarded at graduation to superior students are designated on the diploma as Honors,
High Honors, or Highest Honors. Students receive the designation Honors if they have a
cumulative University of Illinois grade-point average of at least 4.5, and High Honors if they
have at least a 4.8 grade-point average at graduation (A = 5.0). Highest Honors may be awarded
to any student eligible for High Honors upon recommendation of his or her department. The
criteria used by departments in selecting individuals for Highest Honors recognition include
outstanding performance in course work and in supplementary activities of an academic and/
or professional nature. Ordinarily, the basis for such a citation requires completion of an
undergraduate thesis or a special project of superior quality.
Tau Beta Pi
Tau Beta Pi is a national engineering honor society which recognizes students, alumni, and
engineers for outstanding academic achievements and exemplary character. The Alpha chapter
at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign was founded in 1897 and is the fifth oldest
chapter of Tau Beta Pi. In addition to scholastic recognition, members participate in a wide
range of activities which serve the chapter, the College of Engineering, and the community.
The scholastic requirement for membership in Tau Beta Pi is that juniors must be in the upper
eighth of their graduating class and seniors must be in the upper fifth of their graduating class.
Edmund J. James Scholars
The honors program in engineering is a pan of the University James Scholar Program established
to recognize and develop the talents of academically outstanding students. Engineering students
in this program are known as James Scholars in Engineering. Each is assigned to an honors
adviser, and receives special consideration in the selection of a course program to meet specific
needs. Students may apply for the program during summer advanced enrollment or at the
beginning of any semester.
New freshmen are eligible to enter the program if they meet two of the following three
requirements: (1) rank in the top 10 percent of their high school graduating class; (2) have an
ACT subscore in mathematics of 34 or better; (3) have an ACT composite score of 31 or
better. To be eligible for admission and continuation in the James Scholar Program in engineering,
all other students' cumulative grade-point averages shall be 4.5 or better for juniors and seniors
and 4.3 or better for sophomores. Transfer students, with a superior transfer record, may be
accepted into the program on request, and the completion of one normal semester in engineering
with a grade-point average commensurate with the requirement for their class.
Good standing in the James Scholar Program requires panicipation in special honors work
for a majority of the semesters in which a student is in residence.
Dean's List

186 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
ELECTIVES
Humanities and Social Sciences Electives
Eighteen hours of humanities and social sciences are required (in addition to rhetoric), including
one sequence in the humanities and one in the social sciences. The two sequences cannot be
in the same department. A sequence is defined as any combination of at least 6 hours of
approved courses (see list below) taught by a single, nonengineering department, or any of the
interdisciplinary sequences listed on page 186. Additional courses to complete the 18 hours
must also be drawn from the lists of approved courses. All seminars (including 199), honors
courses, thesis courses, and individual study are excluded except as specifically approved.
Students may obtain credit from different academic sources, i.e., residential instruction, CLEP,
advanced placement tests, and transfer credits. Credit in any specific subject may be used
toward degree requirements only once. Because of the variety of sources available for social
science and humanities electives, students may receive duplicate credit in specific courses, such
as American history. Students should be aware that such duplication can not be used toward
degree requirements.

technical or nontechnical. All technical elective courses must be selected in accordance with
departmental requirements.
Technical electives generally include 200- and 300-level courses in engineering, mathematics,
and the natural sciences.
Free Electives
These electives are selected at the prerogative of the student except as noted below.
Credit will not be allowed for courses of a remedial nature, such as mathematics below
analytic geometry or basic military training. No more than 3 semester hours of physical
education course work (basic level, i.e., activity courses) may be used as free electives nor may
they be applied toward degree requirements. No more than 4 hours of religious foundations
courses or 6 hours of advanced military science courses may be used as free electives.
Total transfer credit in required basic courses in mathematics (through integral calculus),
physics, rhetoric, freshman chemistry, computer science, and engineering graphics may be used
for free electives only if the credit covers topics beyond those in equivalent courses at the
University of Illinois. Further restrictions on the acceptance of transfer credit for free electives
may be imposed by the departments with the approval of the associate dean.
Credit-No Credit Option
The credit-no credit grade option is available for students wanting to explore areas of academic
interest which they might otherwise avoid for fear of poor grades. All students considering
this option are cautioned that many graduate and professional schools consider applicants
whose transcripts bear a significant number of nongrade symbols less favorably than those
whose transcripts contain none or very few. Conditions under which students may take courses
on a credit-no credit basis are outlined in the booklet Code on Undergraduate Affairs
distributed to all students.

CURRICULUM IN AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING
For the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering
Agricultural engineering is the application of engineering principles to solutions of problems
in agriculture. Efficient agricultural production depends on sophisticated systems of men,
equipment, processes, and natural resources. Agricultural engineers are involved in the design
of systems which include mechanization of animal and crop production, soil moisture control,

CURRICULUM IN CERAMIC ENGINEERING
For the degree of Bachelor of Science in Ceramic Engineering
Ceramic Engineering is one of the principal fields dealing with materials — their properties,
behavior, and applications. Some of the ceramic products originate with naturally occurring
minerals, while others require the synthesis of specific compounds in order to obtain the
desired properties. Major industries such as electronics, steel, glass, aerospace, and construction
depend heavily upon ceramic materials and their unique properties, especially at high temper-
atures. The ceramic engineering curriculum provides a strong background in engineering and
applied science with emphasis on understanding material properties and processes. By choice
of electives, a student may direct his or her program toward greater emphasis on electronics,
bioengineering, glass, or high-temperature materials.

employing many engineers in industry, private laboratories, and government organizations.
Because of the diversity of modern research and development problems — especially in newly
emerging areas such as energy engineering, ocean engineering, space technology, and computer-
based design — the curriculum is organized around a core that emphasizes a broad education
covering, in depth, the basic areas of science and engineering mechanics which are fundamental
to all branches of engineering. In addition, five secondary field options — engineering science,
experimental mechanics, computer applications, materials engineering (plastics, metals, and
other engineering structural materials), and biomechanics — allow the student to concentrate
on areas of special interest. Any student with special interests and/or educational goals may
modify the curriculum by petition with the approval of the department and the College of
Engineering. The program also provides excellent preparation for graduate study in many
different engineering disciplines.

UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
CURRICULUM IN ENGINEERING PHYSICS*
For the degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics
This curriculum provides broad, thorough training in fundamental physics and mathematics to
prepare students for graduate study in physics or related fields and for research and development
positions in industrial or government laboratories. For the first two years, the curriculum
follows essentially the common engineering program. In the last two years, the emphasis is on
advanced courses in physics and mathematics, but there is a liberal allowance of electives.
When registering for advanced undergraduate courses in physics, students continuing in or
transferring to this curriculum must have a grade-point average of 3.5 (A = 5.0) in all University
subjects exclusive of military science, physical education, and band, and a combined grade-
point average of 3.5 in all courses in mathematics and physics taken prior to such registration.
Transfer students must have a corresponding record in the institution from which they have
transferred and must maintain such status at the University.
The illustrative program that follows shows the requirements to be completed in four years.
However, many students take these courses in a different order. Students with adequate high
school mathematics prerequisites should begin Phycs. 106 the first semester. The program
includes 39 hours of electives, 18 of which must be chosen from the college approved list of
humanities and social sciences electives (see page 186). The remaining 21 hours include 6 hours
of free electives and 16 hours of technical or nontechnical electives, of which at least 6 hours
must be nontechnical and at least 4 technical.
The curriculum requires 128 hours for graduation.

CURRICULUM IN MINING ENGINEERING
See General Engineering, on pages 199, 200, and 201, for undergraduate curriculum.
CURRICULUM IN NUCLEAR ENGINEERING
For the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Engineering
The curriculum in nuclear engineering provides students comprehensive study in basic sciences,
basic engineering, the social sciences and humanities, and technical areas specific to nuclear
engineering. It also provides a large, flexible selection of both technical and free electives
which enable the student to emphasize breadth and/or depth of study. Thus, the curriculum
not only prepares the B.S. graduate to enter directly into a wide variety of careers in nuclear
engineering, but also to continue formal education at the graduate level.
Nuclear engineering is a branch of engineering primarily related to the development and
utilization of nuclear energy sources. These include: (1) the continued application of fission
reactors as central electric power plant thermal sources; (2) the longer term development of
fusion reactors for electric power generation; and (3) the use of radiation sources in such areas
as materials, biological systems, medical treatment, and industrial instrumentation.
The curriculum during the first two years provides a strong foundation in basic sciences
(physics, mathematics, and chemistry) and an introduction to basic electric circuits and to
digital computer utilization. Taking these courses during this time in the program provides the
student added flexibility in choosing technical elective courses.
The curriculum requires 127 hours for graduation.

School of Architecture
Architecture is concerned with shaping man's environment for the achievement of human
purposes. In accomplishing this, an architect has the responsibility to direct his or her professional
effort to contribute to the physical, psychological, and social well-being of man.
The education of an architect must stimulate sensitivity and understanding of human needs
and must develop the ability to satisfy those needs through the design of the built environment.
The educational process focuses on the nature of problems, methodologies in problem solving,
relevant information and creative skills, and the development of the student's intellectual and
judgmental capabilities. This process is framed within a curriculum which specifically emphasizes
FINE AND APPLIED ARTS 213
an ■WMCnCM of the significance of architectural history and an understanding of architectural
design, structural design, environmental technology, building construction techniques, and the
administrative .\n<\ communication process necessary for implementation of building projects.
DEGREE PROGRAMS IN ARCHITECTURE
The School of Architecture offers a tour-year undergraduate preprofessional curriculum leading
to the Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies degree. The two-year graduate program
leads to the professional degree. Master of Architecture.
The undergraduate curriculum provides the fundamentals of a professional education, the
base upon which advanced professional education can build and further an acquisition of
knowledge appropriate to many roles in architecture, planning, and the construction industry.
Students who have received the Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies degree or an
equivalent degree from another university, and who meet all requirements for admission to
the graduate curriculum, may apply for admission to the Graduate College in that curriculum.
Students with a rive-year Bachelor of Architecture degree may make similar application for
admission at the second-year level in the graduate curriculum. The graduate curriculum provides
advanced professional education, and, in addition, the opportunity for specialization. The
University recommends attainment of the Master of Architecture degree to students whose
goals include establishment of professional standing. The Master of Architecture degree
program is fully accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board. For details of the
graduate curriculum, please refer to the Graduate Programs catalog, University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign.
School facilities are limited, and preference will be given to the best qualified applicants
until quotas are filled at both the undergraduate and graduate levels of the program.
Since 1967, the School of Architecture has operated a one-year overseas program in Versailles,
France which is open to qualified students on a priority basis. Course offerings there parallel
those available to students on the Urbana-Champaign campus but stress the European context.
The School of Architecture occupies drafting rooms, lecture rooms, and offices in the
Architecture Building, Flagg Hall, and Noble Hall. The Ricker Library of Architecture and
An is located in the Architecture Building.
UNDERGRADUATE CURRICULUM IN ARCHITECTURE ^Ji

School of Music
All applicants for music curricula are required to satisfy a qualifying audition in the major
performance area prior to approval for admission. In addition, applicants for music composition
or history of music programs are required to submit original scores or other pertinent writings
to substantiate their ability to pursue work in their chosen program of studies. Auditions are
held on designated dates during the academic year.
Applicants who cannot appear in person may submit tape recordings and other required
materials, but all are urged to complete the requirement as early as possible to expedite
approval for admission. Each applicant must write to the director of the School of Music,
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 3034 Music Building, 1114 West Nevada Street,
Urbana, IL 61801, specifying his or her major performance area and curriculum, to make
specific audition arrangements.
The School of Music offers a curriculum in music, with five options leading to the degree
of Bachelor of Music, and a curriculum in music education with six areas of specialization,
leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Music Education. A student enrolled in any
applied music curriculum pursues throughout the four years of his or her course a major
applied subject (such as piano, voice) in which two thirty-minute lessons a week are taken;
and a minor or secondary applied subject for two years during which one thirty-minute lesson
a week is taken. Students in composition and history of music must complete 16 hours in the
major applied music subject. Public performance is a definite part of the training in applied
music, and all students, when sufficiently advanced, are required to participate in student
programs. As part of the requirements for the Bachelor of Music degree in applied music and
composition, senior students must present a satisfactory public recital. Also available is an
open-studies curriculum for students with other specialized musical interests, admission to
which requires the recommendation of the School of Music faculty and approval by the
College of Fine and Applied Arts. Requirements for the program may be obtained from the
director of the School of Music.
A program in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree
with a field of concentration in music is offered to qualified students. (See page 265.) Although
students in this program are encouraged to pursue all phases of the study of music, including
applied music (subject to appropriate auditioning procedures), the emphasis is on historical,
cultural, and theoretical aspects of music rather than on professional training.
Applied music and courses in the history, theory, and appreciation of music are open to all
qualified students in the University.
Graduate courses leading to the degree of Master of Music, Master of Science in Music
Education, Advanced Certificate in Music Education, Doctor of Education in Music Education,
Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology, and Doctor of Musical Arts in Composition, Choral
Music, and Performance and Literature are offered under the regulations of the Graduate
College.
The University Orchestras, University Bands, choral ensembles, jazz bands, and New Music
Ensemble are open to qualified students from any college. The Oratorio Society, University
Chorus, Opera Chorus, and certain other ensembles are also open to members of the faculty
and staff and residents of the community who are admitted by audition or by permission of
the respective conductors. All undergraduate music majors are required to enroll in at least
one conducted ensemble each semester in residence. Students majoring in piano or organ may
count up to 4 semesters of chamber music and/or accompanying toward the total requirement.
A student may register for a maximum of two such courses concurrently and may use a
maximum of 10 semester hours of ensemble credit to apply toward his or her degree.
The faculty and students of the School of Music present approximately 350 concerts and
recitals throughout the year. Faculty artists and student ensembles are available for off-campus
performances through the Office of Continuing Education and Public Service in Music, 608
South Mathews Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801.
The School of Music occupies the Music Building, Tina Weedon Smith Memorial Hall, and
space in the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. The facilities are equipped extensively
with classrooms, studios, practice rooms, experimental-electronic music laboratories, musical
instruments and audio equipment, and several auditoria designed for public recitals and concerts.

Department of Theatre
The curricular options in the Department of Theatre provide intensive and extensive preparation
for the rigorous demands of a professional career in the theatre. A strong commitment to
work in the theatre and a realistic understanding of its intellectual, aesthetic, and physical
requirements is therefore necessary in students who enter the department's program.
Before acceptance in the undergraduate programs in theatre, applicants must participate in
Preadmission Clinics, which take place in the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts on five
or more weekends of each year. The clinics afford the faculty an opportunity to explain the
nature of the study programs and to audition or interview candidates for admission. Those
interested in studying acting prepare a four-minute audition, composed of at least two pieces
from dramatic works; those interested in design, management, directing, technical theatre, or
playwriting present a portfolio of previously accomplished work in theatrical production.
Three study curricula, or options, are offered after the satisfactory completion of the first-
year program required of all students. The Applied Theatre Curriculum is meant for students
in general theatre studies and for students who intend to pursue advanced professional training
in directing, children's theatre, playwriting, theatre history, and criticism. The programs in
acting and in theatre design, technology, and management are meant for those students who,
in the judgment of the faculty, are ready to master those specialties in an intensive undergraduate
program.
The Department of Theatre is one of the resident producing organizations of the Krannert
Center for the Performing Arts, in which it presents fourteen productions annually during the
regular academic year and a repertory season in the summer. The theatres and workshops of
the Krannert Center serve as laboratories for theatre students, who have the opportunity to
learn and to work alongside an outstanding staff of theatre professionals in preparing
performances in theatre, opera, dance, and Kabuki.

Department of Urban and Regional Planning
The Department of Urban and Regional Planning offers a program leading to the degree of
Bachelor of Arts in Urban Planning. Urban planning gives practical expression to human values.
Its aim is to sustain and enhance the quality of life in cities and regions, to create the good
society. Therefore, in addition to special technical skills, each student is helped to acquire a
broad liberal education that leads to an understanding of the natural and social environments,
their problems, and their potentialities for enriching human life. Pathways in undergraduate
planning education lead to diverse careers through professional employment or graduate study
in urban planning or related professions.
For freshman admission to the Department of Urban and Regional Planning, a student must
complete high school requirements listed on page 13. A transfer student will be admitted with
30 or more semester hours of acceptable undergraduate college work with an earned grade-
point average of at least 4.0 (A = 5.0). Applicants not meeting these requirements will be
considered in special cases.
The department's administrative offices are at 1003 West Nevada Street, Urbana. Classrooms
and workshop space are located at 907, 909, and 1001 West Nevada Street and 901 West
Illinois Street. The City Planning and Landscape Architecture Library is in Mumford Hall.
The Department of Urban and Regional Planning also offers a program of graduate studies
leading to the Master of Urban Planning degree, joint degree programs with a Master of
Architecture or a Juris Doctor degree, and the Ph.D. in Regional Planning. The Bureau of
Urban and Regional Planning Research, a unit within the department, provides a vehicle for
the involvement of both faculty and students in a wide range of research projects, continuing

ACADEMIC ORGANIZATION 313
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has four missions: scholarly inquiry
and the generation of knowledge, preparation of individuals for an array of
careers and professions, service to the public, and the provision of the
intellectual core of the University. The college shares the first three missions
with professional schools and other colleges on this campus, but the last
mission is uniquely the responsibility of the College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences. Fulfillment of that responsibility yields a diversified college uniquely
valuable in contributing to the development of broadly educated individuals
committed to or characterized by open inquiry, critical thinking, effective
communication, and responsiveness to the needs of individuals and society.
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is the largest individual college
within a university setting in the state of Illinois. The college offers sixty-
nine undergraduate and ninety-four graduate degree-granting programs and
enrolls over 40 percent of the undergraduates on this campus. The college
serves the entire campus by providing a full range of required general
education and service courses in basic disciplines.
Students in the college are expected to understand the content and develop
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES
235
skills in areas that reflect the overall purpose of the college: fluency and
facility in English; literacy in at least one foreign language; broad exposure
to a number of different disciplines; and intensive study in one discipline
(or an interdisciplinary program). Students have a wide choice of courses to
satisfy these requirements; however, ultimately they must plan a diverse and
intensive program of study, prepare for an occupational/professional and
intellectual future, and develop that clarity and range of mind which is the
goal of educated people.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
The general admission requirements and procedures of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences
are outlined in the admissions section (see page 13). These requirements were established to
enable students admitted here to make the most effective use of the facilities of the University.
The requirements should ensure that entering students have the capability of completing a
degree program successfully.
While the admissions patterns or high school subjects required for admission are necessary
for the student to be able to compete successfully at this University, there are several other
strong recommendations for high school subject requirements. All prospective freshmen are
encouraged to seek a broad preparation in their secondary school program. Students should
continue electing academic subjects in their senior year; in particular, students are encouraged
to elect four full years of English in high school. Although mathematics is not required in all
programs in the college, many programs do require that students take some mathematics; thus
high school students should elect at least two years of algebra, one year of geometry, and one
year of college preparatory mathematics. A solid foundation in mathematics will assist a student
in taking full advantage of educational opportunities at the University. Some knowledge of
science is necessary in our technology-oriented society; students should elect at least two years
of laboratory science in high school. Successful completion of four years of a single foreign
language in secondary school will satisfy the college foreign language degree requirement; thus
students will find it advantageous to include as much foreign language in their secondary
school program as possible.
Prospective students should note that the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has increased
the requirements in the high school subject patterns for admission beginning with admissions
for spring 1986. The admissions section (see page 13) reflects current admissions requirements.
ADVISING
Academic advising is a critical resource for students in developing a program of study. Especially
on a large campus, a continuing, committed association with a faculty member can be a
valuable and rewarding part of the student's educational experience. Advisers are available to
aid students in choosing a field of concentration, planning for career choices, and selecting
courses for each semester. All students in degree programs in the college do have academic
advisers available in their major department. In addition, the assistant and associate deans in
the college assist students in handling a variety of problems and questions.
In order to simplify minor changes in course selections, students who have successfully
completed at least 30 semester hours of course work and who understand college/university
requirements may choose courses without obtaining approval from an academic adviser unless
informed otherwise by the college. Students do need to obtain approval from an adviser for
a number of arrangements, including a formal plan of study for concentration and the election
of the credit-no credit grading option. Students may be requested by the college office to
obtain adviser's/dean's approval for all course changes under certain circumstances. It is very
important for advanced students to confer with an adviser on a regular basis; therefore, the
college encourages all students to consult with their academic adviser at least once each year.
One particular resource for students of the college who have not decided on a plan of study
is the General Curriculum. The General Curriculum is an advising center for students who
want to investigate a variety of subjects before selecting a major or who have decided on a
program that requires transfer at a sophomore or junior level. General Curriculum is not a
degree program and does not serve as a formal program of study. Entering freshmen and
continuing students with less than 45 semester hours may elect to enter the General Curriculum
and may remain in the program until they complete 56 academic semester hours. The office
provides individual advising; group orientation sessions; and printed materials describing fields
of concentration, curricula, and many career opportunities. Students in the General Curriculum
are LAS students and must follow LAS policies and regulations. The General Curriculum office
serves as the college office for students in the program.
Another special resource in the college is qualified advising for students who are interested
in law school. An assistant dean in the college office (270 Lincoln Hall) counsels students who
have declared a pre-law interest. All such students are encouraged to consult the pre-law
adviser. Students preparing for law school may elect any field of concentration; they need not
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 237
consider themselves restricted in a choice of degree program. To assist students planning pre-
law programs, a faculty committee in the college has prepared a handbook for students on
prelaw advising. For further information, contact the pre-law adviser at 270 Lincoln Hall.
HONORS PROGRAMS
Dean's List
Each semester, students are recognized by the college for placement on the Dean's List. Those
students are eligible who meet the following criteria and are in the top 20 percent of their
classes. Students must carry at least 9 hours of traditionally graded courses to be eligible.
Course work graded credit-no credit, satisfactory-unsatisfactory, or course work taken for
graduate credit is excluded from the 9 hour minimum. Students with work graded Excused or
Deferred are not considered for the Dean's List until grades have been submitted for that
work. These students should notify the honors dean when such work is complete if they
expect to be placed on the Dean's List.
James Scholar Program
The official honors program in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is called the Edmund
J. James Scholar Program. This program allows students with exceptional ability to pursue a
rigorous academic course of study and provides the opportunity for those students to meet
with faculty who are particularly interested in honors programs. There are honors advisers
available in the respective departments and an honors dean in the college office. James Scholars
register in some special honors courses, sections, seminars, and colloquia; they may also arrange
individualized honors credit agreements for specific courses. James Scholars have open access
to the University Library' stacks (ordinarily open only to graduate students and faculty); such
access to library stacks is particularly helpful for students involved in independent study and/
or undergraduate research projects. James Scholars also have their program requests scheduled
early to minimize conflicts in getting honors courses.
Any qualified LAS student may become a James Scholar Designate or Nominee. Entering
freshmen who are in the top 15 percent of the admitted class are invited immediately into the
program as James Scholar Designates. Continuing students in the college must maintain a
cumulative grade-point average of 4.5 and must complete two honors courses during the
academic year. In order to remain in the program as a James Scholar Nominee, students must
satisfy the requirements for continuing students. Official certification of James Scholar standing
is made at the end of the academic year (upon completion of these requirements).
Further information about the James Scholar program is available from the college office,
270 Lincoln Hall.
Rogers Merit Scholar Program
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has established the Robert W. Rogers Merit Scholarship
program for highly qualified freshmen. Those freshmen chosen as Robert W. Rogers Scholars
may enroll in any curriculum in the college and are awarded $1,000 for the year; the award
may be renewed for the sophomore year if the student maintains at least a 4.5 (A = 5.0)
grade-point average. After an initial review of all admitted freshmen is made, those with the
highest qualifications are invited to apply. The selection of Rogers Scholars is made by a faculty
panel and based on exceptional scholastic achievement, high performance on either the ACT
or SAT examination, and evidence of leadership in the school or community. No more than
ten new awards are made each year.
Cohn Scholar Program
The Cohn Scholar Program provides intellectual and financial support for a small group of
highly qualified freshmen concentrating in the humanities. Cohn Scholars participate in a special
freshman-year program. Typical activities during the year include tutorials, seminars, and
orientation in the use of University facilities. Students are given opportunities for meeting with
both faculty and students with similar interests; they are also assigned a special honors adviser
for the program and for academic advising. Students are selected for the program by a faculty
committee on the basis of an application, high school class rank, and performance in a
238 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
competitive entrance examination (ACT or SAT). Inquiries should be addressed to the School
of Humanities, 112 English Building, 608 South Wright Street, Urbana, IL 61801.
Honors at Graduation
College honors at graduation is awarded on the basis of academic excellence and satisfaction
of one of the following: (1) successful completion of 25 hours of honors courses (or of work
on honors learning agreements); (2) successful completion of 35 hours of 300-level course
work; or (3) earning departmental distinction. Provided that one of the requirements above is
satisfied, the award of college honors is made according to the following ranges: cum laude
if the college grade-point average places a student in the top 12 percent of the graduating class
but not in the top 7 percent; magna cum laude if the college grade-point average places a
student in the top 7 percent of the graduating class but not in the top 3 percent; and summa
cum laude if the college grade-point average places a student in the top 3 percent of the
graduating class.
Departmental Distinction
Students who have shown exceptional competence in one or more areas of study may earn
distinction in their field(s) of concentration or curriculum. Criteria for awarding distinction are
established by the departments. Students interested in working for distinction should consult
their honors adviser early in their junior year. Specific information about requirements is
available from the departmental and curriculum advisers. Generally, in addition to meeting the
scholastic requirements and the minimum requirements for a concentration, a student graduating
with departmental distinction must satisfy at least one of the following requirements: (1)
presentation of an acceptable thesis; (2) satisfactory performance on a comprehensive exami-
nation prepared by the major department; or (3) completion of a special course of study of at
least 4 semester hours approved by the major department.
A student who has completed a curriculum in teacher education and has shown superior
ability in that area may be recommended for distinction in the teacher education program.
Information about requirements may be obtained from the adviser in the area of specialization.
Phi Beta Kappa
Invitations for membership into Phi Beta Kappa, the nation's oldest honor society, are sent to
outstanding students in Liberal Arts and Sciences each April. Eligibility requires rank in the
top 10 percent of seniors in LAS as well as a minimum number of graded hours and appropriate
course distribution. Precise criteria and detailed information may be obtained from the chapter
secretary, Professor Mary Lee Spence, Department History, 300B Gregory Hall, 810 South
Wright Street, Urbana, IL 61801 (217) 333-4145.
Awards
There are a number of prizes and awards available to outstanding students in certain areas of
the college. Departments will generally notify students of the possibility of such an award;
however, students interested may obtain a current list of the awards available from the college
office, 270 Lincoln Hall.
SPECIAL DEGREE OPPORTUNITIES

For the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science in Liberal Arts and Sciences
Students completing this curriculum receive the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of
Science in Liberal Arts and Sciences, depending on the student's concentration. As of fall 1986,
concentrators in the physical sciences, geography, life sciences, mathematics, psychology, and
speech and hearing science may elect either the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of
Science without regard to the student's specific program of study within the concentration.
Students in any of the other concentrations receive the Bachelor of Arts degree. However, it
is expected that by fall 1987, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will have completed
revisions to make the various concentrations degree-specific; i.e., students completing a given
concentration receive the degree specified for that concentration. Students entering the College
of Liberal Arts and Sciences in fall 1987 or later and electing one of the concentrations in the
physical sciences, life sciences, or mathematics will receive the Bachelor of Science degree.
242
UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Students in any of the other concentrations, except for geography and psychology, will receive
the Bachelor of Arts degree. Students in geography of psychology should consult their
departmental adviser concerning any revision(s) for their concentration and the effective dates
of such revision(s).
Components of the Curriculum
The sciences and letters curriculum consists of several distinct parts, all of which are considered
by the college to be necessary for a liberal education. Below is an outline of the components
of the degree program. A detailed discussion of each component follows.

English Composition Requirement
The ability to write effectively is a cornerstone of a liberal education. All students in the
sciences and letters curriculum must satisfy the campus rhetoric requirement. See page 78 for
a statement of the requirement. Students are strongly encouraged to include additional writing
courses in their program whenever possible.
Foreign Language Requirement
All students in the sciences and letters curriculum are expected to learn a foreign language in
their undergraduate program. A minimum expectation is that students obtain a knowledge
equivalent to the completion of the fourth semester of college study in a language. Some
programs may require additional study or the study of a specific language. Students planning
on graduate study may wish to consult the department of intended graduate study about
language requirements for the graduate program. This may dictate the student's choice of
language in his or her undergraduate work.
The foreign language requirement may be met in any of the following ways:
1. Satisfactory completion of four years of the same foreign language in high school;
2. Satisfactory completion of the fourth semester level of a language in college;
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 243
3. Satisfactory completion of the third semester level in each of two languages by any
combination of high school and college work;
4. Satisfactory performance at the fourth semester level in a language proficiency examination
approved by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the appropriate department.
General Education
A primary role of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is expressed through its general
education requirements. In contrast to the occupational objectives of professional colleges, the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences expects breadth as well as depth. Graduates of the college
are expected to obtain an understanding of the ways in which knowledge is acquired and used
in a variety of fields. Although it is not reasonable to require extensive knowledge of all areas
of human inquiry, graduates must have some acquaintance with literature and the arts, history,
philosophical inquiry, and the insights and techniques of the social sciences. In a constantly
changing world, graduates must have some understanding of cultures and traditions different
from their own. In a technology-oriented society, it is necessary to be acquainted with the
aims and methods of the sciences, to recognize their accomplishments, and to appreciate the
problems posed by technological advances.
In the final analysis, the worth of one's education can be determined by the nature and the
quality of the varied judgments one makes throughout life. In this sense, general education is
a useful counterbalance to specialized education and also a complement to it. General education
is a process, not simply a list of categories or required courses. Unlike specialized, or professional,
education, which serve valuable but limited purposes, general education should serve a person
and society in other ways — less conspicuous but equally important.
Students are therefore required to complete broadly distributed course work in two general
areas — one in the arts and social sciences, the other in mathematics and the sciences. At
least ten courses must be taken, five in Area I (arts and social sciences) and five in Area II
(mathematics and science). The specific list of the distribution of courses is given in Components
of the Curriculum, page 242. A list of courses approved for each of the general education
categories is published by the college and is available in the LAS Student Handbook.
The general education categories and their purposes may be described as follows:
Literature and the Arts. To provide some familiarity with the literary and visual or performing
arts as aesthetic or creative achievements.
Historical and Philosophical Perspectives. To enlarge students' understanding of the past and
thus to provide an important perspective on the present; to enable students to understand
major philosophical issues that confront human beings.
Social Perspectives. To provide students with an understanding of social contexts and institutions.
Non-Western Cultures and Traditions. To expand students' understanding of the values and
traditions of people from different cultures.
Biological Sciences. To consider the structure and function of life forms, their ecological or
their evolutionary relationships, and their importance to the human community.
Physical Sciences. To convey an understanding of the substance and investigative approach of
the physical sciences. Courses need not be highly specialized, but should have sufficient
depth so that students comprehend major aspects of the physical world and are conversant
with the nature of scientific inquiry.
Behavioral Sciences. To acquaint students with the study of individual human behavior.
Mathematics. To study a substantial mathematical endeavor or to explore the scientific and
humanistic import of mathematics.
Science and Society. To explore the evolution and application of particular sciences and/or
technologies together with their social and cultural implications.
Students are urged to consult with their advisers regarding the choice of courses to complement
their programs and to meet educational objectives. Some of the approved courses have
prerequisites. Students should note the following:
— The credit-no credit option may not be used for courses that satisfy general education
requirements.
— There are no limits on the number of courses from a single department that may be used
to satisfy the requirements.
— Courses taken to satisfy a field of concentration requirement may also be used to satisfy
general education requirements provided they are on current general education lists.
244 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
— A student who successfully completes a CLEP general examination using University of
Illinois standards will receive a waiver of the requirement and, in certain cases, credit. See
the LAS Student Handbook for details.
Students who receive college credit for Advanced Placement (CEEB) work will find that
some course credit will generally apply toward the relevant requirement. For example, English
Literature Advanced Placement scores of 4 or 5 will provide 3 semester hours of credit in
English 103 and, therefore, count toward the requirement for literature and the arts. See page
34 for current credit policies for Advanced Placement Examinations.
Similarly, proficiency credit received through a department's own testing program may be
used to satisfy general education requirements.
Students planning to study in a specialized curriculum or in a teacher education curriculum
will be subject to the requirements as indicated elsewhere in this catalog rather than the above
requirements.
Field of Concentration
All students in the sciences and letters curriculum are expected to study a single discipline in
some depth. This portion of the student's program is called the field of concentration. A field
of concentration consists of approximately 40 to 60 hours of course work designated by the
department and approved by the faculty of the college. Most concentrations are divided into
two portions: the core (course work within the department) and the cognate (course work
related to the concentration but not within the department of the concentration). All but 12
to 20 hours in the concentration will be in the core. The concentrations not divided into core
and cognate are the interdisciplinary concentrations (e.g., the area studies concentrations and
the humanities concentration). It is expected that at least one-half of the course work for a
field of concentration should be chosen from courses numbered 200 and above.
There are thirty-nine concentrations from which students may choose, and a number of
concentrations have multiple options within the concentration. A complete list of concentrations
available may be found on page 235. The field of concentration should be chosen no later
than the beginning of the junior year. Most concentrations require that students choose their
courses in consultation with a faculty adviser. Students should plan to discuss their concentration
with a faculty adviser early in the junior year. In most cases, students will be expected to
submit to the college a written list of courses for their field of concentration (called the
concentration plan) prior to the beginning of their sixth semester.
Since the field of concentration is a required portion of the sciences and letters curriculum,
students must take all course work for the minimum requirements of the concentration for a
traditional letter grade (or on the satisfactory-unsatisfactory basis). The credit-no credit grading
option may not be used for courses in the concentration.
The satisfactory completion of a field of concentration requires not only the completion of
a stated amount of course work, but also requires that the student earn at least a C average
in courses for the field of concentration. In order to graduate, a student should earn at least
a 3.0 average in all courses that are included in the field of concentration average and taken
on this campus and at least a 3.0 average in all courses that are included in the field of
concentation average and taken here and elsewhere. Consult the department or the college
office for a list of courses included in the field of concentration average for a specific
concentration.
All students are expected to complete a minimum amount of advanced course work for
their field of concentration on this campus. Specifically, students normally complete on this
campus at least 12 hours of advanced core course work (course work within the department)
in the field of concentration.1
1 Students who entered LAS prior to fall 1984 should consult the college office for information
regarding this requirement.
Advanced Hours Requirement
A liberal arts program requires study in a number of areas (general education requirements)
and study in some depth. Thus all students are expected to complete a minimum portion of
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 245
their undergraduate program in courses rhat presume some prior knowledge of the discipline.
C (Nines .ire considered advanced it they presume such prior knowledge as indicated by the
course number (300 or above), by the prerequisites necessary tor enrollment in the course, or
b) the quality and depth of work expected of students in the course. All students in the
Sciences and I etters Curriculum are expected to complete at least 21 hours of courses designated
.is advanced bj the college in order to graduate. All such courses must be taken at a
baccalaureate-granting institution. Courses designated as advanced are those courses numbered
300 or above and those 200-level courses that are specially designated as advanced. A list of
such advanced 200-level courses may be found in the LAS Student Handbook.
Electives
One of the special features of a liberal arts program is that most fields of concentration allow
time in the student's program for a number of courses chosen freely from among the University's
offerings. These courses, called electives, may be used to broaden preparation for professional
study, to complement the liberal arts component of the program with courses specifically
designed to prepare for business and career opportunities, or to explore additional areas of
interest. In addition to all courses used to fulfill the minimum graduation requirements of the
college (rhetoric, foreign language, general education, and field of concentration), students may
use as electives any course sponsored by a unit in the college or by a unit sponsoring a field
of concentration in the college and up to 24 hours of courses offered by departments and
schools in other colleges on campus.
Specifically, a student following a field of concentration may use as electives:
1. Courses offered by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences;
2. Courses offered by departments and schools in other colleges of the University that sponsor
fields of concentration in LAS [art (excluding applied art courses), computer science,
economics, finance, music (excluding applied music courses), or physics]; and
3. A maximum of 24 hours (to be counted toward graduation) of courses not included in (1)
or (2) above. Examples of courses in this category are accounting, business administration,
engineering, applied an courses, and applied music courses.
Undergraduate students of high academic standing within 10 semester hours of a bachelor's
degree may be given the privilege of electing courses in the Graduate College for graduate
credit with the consent of the dean of that college. Students with senior standing may petition
the Graduate College for permission to elect graduate courses for undergraduate credit. In
either case, the student must have a 4.0 average or higher in courses taken beyond the
sophomore level. Interested students should first consult the College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences.
Residency
Students must satisfy the University residency requirement for graduation (page 76). They must
complete on this campus, uninterrupted by work elsewhere, either the first three years (at least
90 hours of course work) or the last year (at least 30 hours). The hours must be applicable
toward the degree sought. In addition, all students must earn 60 hours of course work at a
four-year (baccalaureate-granting) institution after any work at a community college. Students
in the sciences and letters curriculum are expected to earn at least 12 hours of advanced
courses in their core for the field of concentration on this campus (page 244.)
Total Hours
A total of 120 semester hours, excluding more than 4 hours of basic physical education and
excluding most military training, is required for graduation in the sciences and letters curriculum.
SCIENCES AND LETTERS CONCENTRATIONS
Actuarial Science
This concentration is sponsored by the Department of Mathematics. See page 270.
246 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Anthropology
Anthropology courses: 28 hours (including 102-103 or 110)
Cognate courses: 12 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
Anthropology, which views human behavior and society (both past and present) in a cross-
cultural perspective, combines scientific and humanistic interests in a modern social science
framework. It consists of biological anthropology (human genetics and evolution and the
zoological order of primates), archaeology (the prehistory of cultures and the origins and
growth of human technology), sociocultural anthropology (the comparative study of social
structures and institutions from simple hunter-gatherer to complex urban settings), and
anthropological linguistics (the comparative study of languages and communications). Although
they should strive for a topical and geographic balance, undergraduates may specialize in one
of these four branches, and they may also study some world culture area intensively through
an area studies program. Anthropology is an appropriate field of concentration for those
seeking a general liberal education, for those preparing for professional study and careers in
law, medicine, or commerce, and for those planning further graduate study in anthropology.
Professional anthropologists work as research scientists and teachers in museums, universities,
and archaeological surveys or as staff members in government agencies, social service programs,
and business firms where international understanding or human and social concerns are
important.
The 28 hours in anthropology must include either Anth. 110 or the 102-103 sequence but
not both. At least 12 hours in anthropology must be advanced (Anth 291, or 293, or any 300-
level course) and at least 6 of the cognate hours must be in 200- and 300-level courses.
Students are strongly urged to take Anth. 220, 230, 240, and 270. A balance among courses
in the subdisciplines (archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural and social anthropology,
and linguistics) is highly recommended. Students must take all 12 cognate hours either within
the School of Humanities or the School of Life Sciences, or within the Departments of
Economics, Geology, Mathematics, and Psychology, or in the social sciences. All students
should discuss their selection of anthropology and cognate courses with a departmental adviser.
Modifications of these requirements can be worked out between the student and adviser and,
with the approval of the head of the department, will be submitted to the college office to
establish individual requirements for a field of concentration in anthropology.
Departmental Distinction. To be eligible for distinction, a student must maintain a 4.6 average
in 32 hours of anthropology courses, including Anth. 293 and/or 291, and submit a thesis for
judgment by the departmental honors board.
Art History
Art history courses: 32 hours (including 111-112)
Cognate courses: 15 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
Like the other humanities, the history of art as an undergraduate area of concentration offers
an enrichment of and a preparation for life, rather than training for a specific occupation. The
concentrator who goes on to graduate work in the field can look forward primarily to becoming
a teacher of the subject, to membership on the staff of a museum, or to employment in a
commercial art gallery.
Working in consultation with the undergraduate adviser for art history, each concentrator
will design a program of study that satisfies the requirements listed below. Students who wish
to take a considerable number of studio courses as part of their concentration should enroll
in the History of Art Option offered by the School of Art and Design within the College of
Fine and Applied Arts.
REQUIREMENTS
1. Courses in the history of art and architecture. Art Hi. Ill and 112 and, in addition, at
least 24 hours of art history at the 200- and 300-level, including one three-hour course in
each of the following areas: (a) Ancient and Medieval art; (b) Renaissance, Baroque, and
Rococo art; (c) Late Eighteenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth Century art; and (d) African,
Asian, Oceanic, and Pre-Columbian art.
Courses in the history of architecture, excluding Arch. 210, may be used with the approval
of the adviser for as many as 12 hours in meeting the 24-hour requirement.
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 247
2. Foreign language. French or German is most strongly recommended for fulfilling the foreign
language requirement; however, other languages may be used with the approval of the
adviser as the needs of the student's program dictate. Students who have decided to make
the history of Oriental art their major study in undergraduate and graduate work would be
well advised to satisfy the requirement with Chinese or Japanese rather than with a European
language.
3. Cognates. At least 15 hours of courses at the 200- and 300-level in cognate areas chosen
with the approval of the adviser must be completed. Although the Program in Art History
allows considerable latitude in the selection of such courses, they should be chosen with
the goal of enhancing the student's understanding of the cultural context within which
works of art and architecture have been created. Recent practice suggests that cognate
courses will most commonly be drawn from such fields as anthropology, classics, history,
literature, music and dance history, philosophy, psychology, and religious studies.
Departmental Distinction. To be eligible, students must earn a high grade-point average and
complete at least 4 semester hours of independent research. See the undergraduate adviser for
details.
Asian Studies1
Requirements: At least 40 hours.
This program, sponsored by the Center for East Asian and Pacific Studies, permits either a
single geographical regional focus (East Asia; South Asia; Southeast Asia; the Middle East) in
an integrated language and area, or general area program; or a language-literature-linguistics
specialization; or a program of cross-cultural studies. While individual programs of study must
be approved by the director of the center or by an adviser designated by the director, the
following general information and statements of requirements will assist students in planning
programs of study.
The area of concentration in Asian studies consists of a minimum of 40 semester hours of
course work selected from three of four discipline distribution categories: humanities, social
sciences, language-literature-linguistics, related courses and fields. A complete list of approved
courses is available from the center. Students must designate one of these categories as a
primary concentration with a minimum of 20 hours of course work, a secondary category
with a minimum of 12 hours of course work, and a tertiary category with a minimum of 8
hours of course work. The category "related courses and fields" may not be offered as a
primary concentration. Courses offered within each category should be distributed over several
disciplines. Students selecting language-literature-linguistics as their primary discipline-distri-
bution may not include the first-year level of their language of specialization in the 20-hour
minimum.
Departmental Distinction. Students must maintain a 4.25 cumulative grade-point average and
a 4.5 grade-point average in Asian Studies, complete two 300-level (or 400-level) nonlanguage
courses in Asian Studies beyond minimal concentration requirements, and receive the endorse-
ment of the faculty adviser and the honors committee. Candidates are advised to consult the
faculty adviser about all details at the beginning of their senior year.
I A revision of this program not reflected in the statement below was pending approval at
the date of publication. Students entering August 1987 or later should consult the Center for
East Asian and Pacific Studies regarding requirements.
Astronomy
Astronomy courses: 18 hours (300-level astronomy/physics courses)
Cognates/prerequisites: 3 or 8 hours of introductory astronomy, 12 hours of general physics, and
II (or 10) hours of calculus
The field of concentration in astronomy demands both a broad and an in-depth exploration
into astronomy and allied disciplines, rather than focusing on one relatively limited area of
the subject. Specific programs of study for individual students must be designed and periodically
updated through mutual discussions between students and their academic advisers. Students
should note sequential prerequisites for courses.
248 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
REQUIREMENTS
The basic concentration consists of a minimum of 44 hours distributed as follows:
1. Astr. 101 and 102, or 210;
2. Math. 120, 132, and 242 or equivalent;
3. Phycs. 106, 107, and 108;
4. A minimum of 18 hours in 300-level astronomy and physics courses (excluding Phycs. 319),
of which at least 10 hours must be in astronomy courses.
Additional courses recommended for concentrators, especially those intending to pursue
graduate study in astronomy, include: Math. 343, 345; Phycs. 331, 332, 333, 361, 386, and
387.
Departmental Distinction. A student concentrating in astronomy may earn distinction by
attaining a minimum grade-point average of 4.5 in 300-level astronomy and physics courses.
Chemistry
Chemistry courses: 30 hours (including general chemistry)
Cognate/prerequisites: 11 (or 10) hours of calculus and 10 or 12 hours of general physics
Students may specialize in chemistry by following either (1) the chemistry curriculum (leading
to the Bachelor of Science in Chemistry) or (2) the chemistry concentration in the sciences
and letters curriculum (leading to the degree Bachelor of Science — or Arts — in Liberal Arts
and Sciences). The chemistry curriculum is a rigorous, specialized program suitable for those
planning careers in chemistry. It meets the professional standards prescribed by the American
Chemical Society. The requirements are detailed on page 286. In contrast, although the
chemistry concentration in the sciences and letters curriculum (requirements described below)
is used by some students planning chemistry careers, it is more often chosen by students
wishing to obtain a chemistry background for use in related fields. Some students who change
their fields to chemistry after their freshman year will find the chemistry concentration
requirements most compatible with their preparation.
REQUIREMENTS
Students must complete at least 30 hours in chemistry and biochemistry, excluding Chem. 100,
103, 122, and 199. These must include Chem. 340 or 342 and two other 300-level courses, at
least one of them outside physical chemistry. Transfer credit in chemistry must be approved
by the adviser to be included in the 30 hours. Mathematics through Math. 242 or 245 and
physics through Phycs. 102 or 108 also must be completed.
Sequence of Courses. Students who desire thorough training in the fundamentals of chemistry
should select the following courses: Basic courses — Chem. 107 and 109, 108 and 110, 136
and 181, 336, 342 and 383, 344 and 385, 315; Specialized courses — advanced offerings
selected from biochemistry; chemical engineering; and analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical
chemistry. Students whose Chemistry Placement Test scores do not qualify them for registration
in Chem. 107 may substitute the alternate sequence Chem. 101, 102, and 123 for Chem. 107-
110. Students majoring in other disciplines having limited chemistry requirements should seek
advice from their departmental advisers.
Departmental Distinction. To be eligible, a student must have an overall grade-point average
of at least 4.0 and must register in a senior thesis course (Chem. 292 or Biochem. 292).
Recommendations for distinction are based on the quality of the thesis work and the grade-
point average. See the honors adviser for details.
Cooperative Education Program. Students accepted into the Chemistry Cooperative Education
Program spend alternate periods of attendance at the University with periods of employment
in industry or government. Transcript recognition is given as well as a certificate of participation
at graduation. Additional information and applications are available in the School of Chemical
Sciences Placement and Advising Office, 107 Noyes Laboratory, 505 S. Mathews Avenue,
Urbana, IL 61801.
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 249
Classics
Classics courses: 24-32 hours (depending on option chosen)
Cognate courses: 20 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
Studying the languages and culture of ancient Greece and Rome is useful for students seeking
a broad education in the liberal arts or preparing for graduate study in one of the many fields
of Classical, Medieval, or Renaissance scholarship. Within the general requirements of the
concentration, the Department of the Classics can offer individual programs designed to meet
the needs and interests of each student. Close interaction between faculty and students,
individual attention, tutorial instruction, opportunity for study abroad in Greece and Italy, and
unmatched resources in the Classics Library and the collections of ancient an and other objects
from classical antiquity in the museums on campus provide unique advantages for the pursuit
of classical studies.
Concentrators in classics may choose one of the following options and take an additional
20 hours of cognate courses.
1. Classical Civilization (including classical archaeology): Twenty-four hours of Classical
Civilization courses (excluding Classical Civilization 100), 6 of which must be at the 300-
level.
2. Latin Option: Twenty-four hours of Latin — excluding Latin 101, 102, 103, 105 — and
including Latin 311 and at least 6 additional hours at the 300-level.
3. Greek Option: Twenty-eight hours of Greek — including Greek 311 and 6 additional hours
at the 300-level.
4. Classics Option: Thirty-two hours: Greek 201, 202, 311; Latin 201, 202, 311; at least 6
additional hours each in Greek and in Latin at the 300-level.
Cognate Courses. Twenty hours in appropriate courses from two or more of the following
subjects: anthropology, architecture, an, classical civilization (not approved for Option 1),
comparative literature, English, foreign languages, Greek (not approved for Options 3 or 4),
history, Latin (not approved for Options 2 or 4), linguistics, philosophy, political science,
religious studies, speech communication, and theatre. Concentrators must plan their programs
in consultation with a departmental adviser.
Note: Concentrators choosing the Classical Civilization Option are advised, though not required,
ro satisfy the college foreign language requirement with one of the classical languages.
Departmental Distinction. Students seeking departmental distinction must have at least a 4.5
average in relevant courses and should consult with a member of the department's honors
committee at the earliest opportunity.
Comparative Literature
Comparative literature courses: 15 hours
Literature courses: 24 hours
Cognate courses: 9 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
Students who elect comparative literature as a field of concentration must complete 48 semester
hours in the courses indicated below, at least 15 hours being in courses numbered 300 or
above. Besides knowing English, students must have sufficient linguistic skills in at least one
foreign language to participate in 200- and 300-level literature courses offered by the various
foreign language and literature departments.
As soon as students are contemplating choosing comparative literature as a field of
concentration, they should consult the faculty adviser, who will assist them in selecting
appropriate courses that will be especially helpful as preparation for the advanced comparative
literature training beginning with the junior year. Courses in classical civilization and in literature
(particularly courses dealing with works from several countries) are especially recommended
at relatively early stages of study. An ample selection of such courses at the 100 and 200 levels
exists in the various literature departments.
The distribution of course work allows for considerable flexibility. It must include:
1. At least 15 hours in comparative literature courses, including C. Lit. 201 and C. Lit. 202.
The remaining hours should be selected from different types of courses: e.g., 141, 142, 351,
361, 371.
2. At least 15 hours in one literature in the original language (ancient or modern, including
250 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Far Eastern and African), 12 of which are at the 200 level or above, studied in depth and
in its historical development. (Normally this is the primary literature of the student's
educational background.)
3. At least 9 hours at the 200 level or above in a second literature in the original language.
With the assistance of the adviser, these courses should be carefully chosen so as to correlate
meaningfully with the student's primary literature. Students may center their interest on
cultural periods such as medieval, renaissance, neo-classical and enlightenment, or modern
(nineteenth and twentieth centuries), or on genres, relations, or critical theory.1
4. At least 12 hours of literature courses used for (1), (2), or (3) above must be at the 300
level or approved for advanced hours in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
5. At least 9 hours in any single national literature or several, including comparative literature;
or in other humanistic fields, e.g., history, philosophy, speech, art, music, psychology,
sociology, theatre, anthropology, and Asian studies. Since some of the courses in these
subjects are more suitable than others to balance a student's individual program of
concentration in comparative literature, students must follow the guidelines given to them
by their adviser.

Economics is a social science that studies the problems caused by scarcity and how individuals,
institutions, and societies may deal with these problems. Economics shares common interests
with business-oriented disciplines, such as finance and business administration. Economists
frequently require quantitative skills, such as calculus and statistics, to derive economic principles
that are useful in forming policies designed to solve economic problems.
REQUIREMENTS
The field of concentration in economics requires course work in three areas. For further
information, see the Economics Bulletin available in the office of undergraduate studies of the
department. The requirements are:
1. Economics and Statistics: At least 21 hours of economics, including Econ. 101, 300, and
301 (but excluding Econ. 199, 294, 295, and 299); and 6 hours of statistics (Econ. 172 and
173 or equivalent).
2. Mathematics: Minimum requirement is Math. 125-134 or equivalent. (See Economics
Bulletin.) Additional mathematics courses are recommended.

The study of English and American literature is the study of traditions, masterpieces, and
critical theory and practice. Students who concentrate in English have many options in planning
a field of study, but the basic program is designed to accommodate students who seek to
broaden their familiarity with our literature, to intensify their language skills for personal and
professional reasons, and to learn more about literature's relationship to the other arts, history,
philosophy, psychology, and the modern languages.
REQUIREMENTS
Students must complete the following:
1. English courses. Thirty hours, distributed as follows: Engl. 101, Introduction to Poetry (It
is strongly recommended that this course be taken prior to advanced courses in the

This field of concentration is designed for students who want a more flexible course of study
than is provided by the curriculum in geology (see page 287). The program is designed mainly
for those wishing to obtain a reasonably liberal education and/or a background in geology
for use in fields such as business, environmental science and technology, mineral economics,
regional planning, journalism, law, sales, or library science. It will not prepare a student for
graduate work in the geological sciences unless the student selects a plan of courses in
background mathematics, chemistry, and physics fully comparable to that in the curriculum in
geology.
REQUIREMENTS
Prerequisites — Geol. 107, 108, ' qualification for Math. 120 or 135 and for Chem. 101 or
107.
1 Students planning to concentrate in geology should take Geol. 107-108; students who
decide to concentrate in geology after taking Geol. 101 or 102 must take an additional 4 hours
of 100-level work excluding Geol. 142 and 143. Geol. 107 or 108 is strongly recommended
to complete the total of 8 hours of 100-level work; see a departmental adviser.
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 257
1. Geology. Twenty hours including: Geol. 332 (4), Gcol. 320 or 321 (4), Geol. 317 (8), and

hours to be approved by a departmental adviser (12).
Departmental Distinction. Students who maintain a grade-point average of at least 4.5 in all
geology courses and 4.0 in all other science and mathematics courses and who complete an
acceptable honors thesis, including at least 4 hours credit in Geol. 293, are recommended for
graduation with distinction.
Germanic Languages and Literatures
German courses: 29 hours (beyond the 100-level); 12 hours beyond the 100-level for Scandinavian
Cognate courses: 20-26 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser); 33 hours for Scandinavian.
These hours include 6-8 hours of Western civilization.
A concentration in German serves to develop fluency in one of the leading languages of science,
industry, and intellectual culture; familiarity with principles governing the structure of our
Indo-European family of languages and of languages generally; insight into the use of language
in literary expression and portrayal; and knowledge of the culture that finds expression through
this language and its literature. The departmental concentration in Scandinavian provides
substantially the same advantages. The following options are offered within this field of
concentration:
Language and literature. Designed as a traditional study of German, providing students with
a balanced knowledge of German language, literature, and civilization.
1. Twenty-nine hours in German, including 211, 212, 231, 232, 301, 302, 311, 312, 320, 365.

History
History courses: 30-34 hours (including 100-level survey sequence[s])
Cognate courses: 20 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
Students in the history concentration should acquire a broad background from the study of
the human experience in different cultures and time periods. A wide distribution of courses is
therefore advisable; this is especially true for those who wish to enter teaching, government
service, or professional schools for law, social work, museum and library science, business
administration, or labor and industrial relations.
REQUIREMENTS
1. A prerequisite to the advanced work in history is one freshman-sophomore survey sequence
(Hist. 111-112, 131-132, 151-152, 168 and 170, 173-174, 175-176, or 181-182).
2. A second freshman-sophomore sequence may also be offered, but at least 18 of the required
hours of history courses must be at the 200- and 300-level.
3. One of the courses, at any level, must be in a premodern period of history.
4. The history courses must include at least 12 hours in an area of specialization and at least
6 hours in a second area. The following areas may be selected: anciertt, medieval, and
Renaissance (Europe); modern Europe since 1500 (including Russia); the United States and
Latin America; Africa and the Near and Middle East; South, Southeast, East Asia. With the
approval of the departmental adviser and in consultation with a sponsoring professor, a
student may develop before the beginning of the senior year a special topical, geographical,
or chronological area of concentration (for example, prelaw, Latin American studies, the
world from 1789 to 1914).
5. Hist. 298 must be taken as part of the 30-34 hours requirement. The prerequisite for the
course is 14 hours in history, 6 of them at the 200- or 300-level.

who have not had Hist. 111-112 must take Comp. Lit. 141-142 as pan of their cognate to
satisfy the western civilization requirement. Twelve of the 20 hours in cognate courses must
be at the 200- and 300-level. Traditional areas for cognates are: ancient and modern
languages (excluding the first-year elementary courses and also excluding the second-year
courses if those courses are being used to fulfill the language requirement in the College
of Liberal Arts and Sciences), anthropology, art history, classical archaeology and civilization,
economics, English, American and comparative literature, geography, library science, music
history, philosophy, political science, psychology, religious studies, and sociology. Nonhistory
courses chosen from the multidisciplinary fields of women's studies, African studies, Asian
studies, Latin American studies, Russian language and area studies, medieval civilization,
Renaissance civilization, American civilization, and cinema studies are also accepted as
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 259
cognates it they meet the criteria of relevance and academic level. History of science students
and premedical and predental students may offer cognate work in the physical and life
sciences. All cognate courses should be related by time, area, and/or topic to the area of
concentration and are subject to the approval of the history department adviser.
For details on the field of concentration in history and the honors program, see the adviser
in 300 Gregory Hall.
Departmental Distinction. To be eligible, a student must have at least a 4.5 grade-point average,
complete a senior thesis, and receive the approval of an examining committee. The examining
committee will determine the level of distinction to be awarded.
Humanities
Requirements: At least 45-51 hours
The School of Humanities is an association of humanities departments in the College of Liberal
Arts and Sciences and, in cooperation, the College of Fine and Applied Arts. In addition to
their own concentrations, these departments have developed an interdisciplinary program of
study, sponsored by the School of Humanities, which encompasses several distinct programs
designed to acquaint students in a coherent manner with topics that cross disciplinary boundaries.
At present, the field of concentration in humanities includes program options in: American
civilization, cinema studies, history and philosophy of science, medieval civilization, and
Renaissance studies. Since the school is unable to sponsor options in all specialties or topics
of humanistic study, students whose interests do not coincide with one of the specific options
are encouraged to consult with the school office and to consider developing their own program
through the Individual Plans of Study concentration. Enrollment in the field of concentration
in humanities requires a declaration of one of the options.
Each option of the field of concentration in humanities is supervised by a committee of
faculty whose own scholarship and educational interests have involved them in interdisciplinary
teaching and research. An adviser for students is available in each option and is responsible
for approving students' plans of study. Action on matters other than course selection is taken
by the committee.
CONCENTRATION
Enrollment in a field of concentration requires the following:
1. Elect one of the options offered within the concentration in humanities and file an option
declaration with the School of Humanities office no later than the end of the first semester
of the junior year. Students who do not begin work on option requirements by their junior
year will be at a disadvantage.
2. Select specific courses counted toward completion of an option with the advice and approval
of the option adviser. Any coherent program is acceptable, subject to specific option
requirements developed in consultation with the option adviser.
3. For the elected option, complete the stated minimum number of hours (which will be at
least 45 hours) in courses applicable toward the concentration and in accord with the
distribution requirements listed below (a, b, and c); at least 25 hours must be at the 200-
and 300-level. Note: Some course selections may require prerequisite courses. Total hours
will most likely be in excess of the 45-hour minimum; however, most students will complete
two or perhaps three college general education distribution requirements in the process.
a. Elect and complete in consultation with an adviser at least 36 hours of topically oriented
course work with at least 6 hours in each of three different departments or programs.

Medieval civilization. This option is intended to introduce students to medieval culture,
provide them with a sense of periods, names, ideas, and movements in sequence, and thus give
them a synoptic view of the field. Students whose interests are primarily literary should consult
with an adviser in comparative literature or one of the language and literature departments.
The required courses are designed to encourage students to read medieval texts, insofar as
practical, in the manner that a medieval university student would have read them. In addition,
a certain amount of training in the reading and interpretation of medieval documents and in
the study of Latin and the medieval vernacular languages will bring students closer to the
thought of the period.
Requirements (45 hours)
a. Acquire a reading knowledge of a foreign language relevant to the student's interests in
medieval civilization. In most instances, this requirement will coincide with the college
foreign language requirement. The language should be selected in consultation with the
option adviser.

complete an additional one-semester course or independent study or thesis. See the option
adviser for details.
Individual Plans of Study (IPS)
Students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences may choose any of the 69 different
undergraduate degree programs offered within the college. These fields of concentration and
specialized curricula, each with its own pattern of requirements and electives, are continuously
reviewed by the sponsoring departments and the college and revised as needed. At the same
time, it is not possible to anticipate or specify all possible undergraduate fields of study. So,
in order to encourage the growth of new academic disciplines, the college sponsors the
experimental concentration — the Individual Plans of Study Program. IPS, initiated in 1971,
allows the student to create an original concentration more appropriate for the individual's
educational needs and characterized by a unique pattern of upper-level courses with a new
academic direction.
The development of an IPS program begins with the student's perception that a more
appropriate field of study could exist beyond the present fields of concentration. Consulting
with the secretary of the IPS Advisory Committee and with faculty members in related fields
will soon establish whether or not an original concentration is appropriate. Then, with the
cooperation of one or more faculty members who consent to serve as advisers for this IPS
program, an IPS field of concentration is planned and justified as carefully as if this were a
departmental concentration. Although an IPS program is usually interdisciplinary, combining
courses from several departments and even colleges, the IPS program is part of the Sciences
and Letters Curriculum. Thus students are required to satisfy the sciences and letters requirements
of rhetoric, general education foreign language, and advanced hours; they must also complete
at least 120 semester hours and satisfy the residency requirement.
Once an IPS program is formulated, the student and adviser make formal application to the
IPS Advisory Committee, which evaluates and decides whether a proposed IPS program is
appropriate for the aims of both the student and the college.
Students interested in IPS are encouraged to inquire at 912 South Fifth Street, Champaign,
IL 61820 (333-4710), as early as possible in their sophomore year. In all cases, IPS programs
must be initiated and approved before the end of the student's junior year.
Departmental Distinction: To graduate with distinction, a student must (1) have a cumulative
grade-point average of at least 4.25 (A = 5.0), and (2) successfully complete a project that has
been approved by the IPS Advisory Committee. Further information on requirements for
graduation with distinction may be obtained from the secretary of the IPS Advisory Committee.
Italian
This concentration is sponsored by the Department of Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese. See
page 281.
Latin American Studies
Requirements: At least 42 hours
A concentration in Latin American studies provides an integrated exploration of a major world
area. Depending upon the student's interests and career aspirations, individual programs of
study are designed in close consultation with a faculty adviser appointed by the director of
the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies. Study programs should be planned with
both an areal or regional focus (e.g., Brazil, the Andean countries) and a disciplinary or topical
focus. A disciplinary focus may be limited to one field (e.g., economics, literature) or may be
broader in scope (e.g., social science, humanities); a topical focus would include study in depth
of subjects such as population or economic development. All study programs should reflect
an integrative, cross-disciplinary approach, and courses must be taken in at least three disciplines.
Students are also expected to demonstrate a substantial command of Spanish or Portuguese.
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 263
This requirement may be satisfied by talcing an approved sequence of courses in either language
or by passing I proficiency examination. Although not a requirement, students concentrating
in I atm American studies are urged to include, during the summer or regular academic year,
a period of foreign residence and study in their program.
REQUIREMENTS
The field of concentration itself consists of a minimum of 42 semester hours of course work
as follows:
1. Primary focus (20 hours)
2. Secondary focus (10 hours)
3. Two courses in Spanish or Portuguese composition or conversation (5 to 6 hours) beyond
the level specified by the LAS language requirement, or the equivalent as demonstrated by
special examination
4. Two semesters in Advanced Special Topics, L.A. St. 295
Departmental Distinction. To be eligible, a student must achieve at least a 4.5 grade-point
average in the field of concentration, complete a senior thesis, and receive the approval of the
center's Research Committee.
Life Sciences
(Including Anatomical Sciences; Bioengineering; Biophysics; Biology General; Biology
Honors; Ecology, Ethology, and Evolution; Entomology; Microbiology; Physiology; and
Plant Biology)
Requirements for all options: 38-42 hours as given below. (Advanced and additional requirements
vary according to option.)
Mathematics: 5 hours of calculus
Chemistry: 13-15 hours of chemistry through organic chemistry
Biology: 10 hours of introductory biology
Physics: 10-12 hours of general physics
The School of Life Sciences departments have cooperated in developing a field of concentration
in life sciences with a number of different options suitable for students with different educational
objectives. Because of the interdependency of the biology subdisciplines and their reliance on
the physical sciences, all undergraduates in this field are required to have a strong background
in cognate sciences and broad exposure to biological materials, phenomena, and principles.
Students who do not begin mathematics and chemistry in their freshman year generally will
be at a disadvantage. In the advanced biological areas, students are expected to gain experience
with living systems at the molecular, cellular, organismic, population, and community levels.
The ways of achieving this training differ by option.
Notes
1. Each student is required to complete all requirements of an elected option to satisfy the
requirements of the life sciences field of concentration.
2. A student majoring or concentrating in an undergraduate program in the School of Life
Sciences may not apply toward graduation more than 15 hours of 100-level life science
courses (including cross-listed courses on this campus and courses transferred from other
institutions).

neurophysiology), the relations of lower organisms with their environment (comparative
physiology or physiological zoology), the relations of the human species with its environment
(ergonomics and human physiology), interrelations between and functioning of organ systems
in the whole organism (mammalian physiology), and the fundamental molecular and cellular
mechanisms of life (cell physiology and biophysics).
Numerous choices must be made amongst the physical sciences, physiology, and related
areas of biology. Therefore, it is essential that a student concentrating in physiology consult
with his or her adviser as early as possible and at frequent intervals. In addition to offering

The field of concentration in music is designed for students whose academic interests are
broader or more compelling than can be accommodated within the several FAA music programs
(page 224). This program, which incorporates a high degree of flexibility beyond the core of
required courses, is not professionally oriented, but can prepare the way for graduate study in
music theory, composition, or the various branches of musicology.
REQUIREMENTS
All students in the music concentration must complete or proficiency the following core of
courses for a total of 29 to 31 credit hours:
Music 101-104, 107-109, and one 300-level music theory course;
Music 110, 213-214, and one 300-level musicology course.
All students in the concentration must, in addition, possess or acquire some mastery of
keyboard skills, which may be demonstrated by successfully completing Music 160-161, or
through an appropriate audition. (Students who wish to pursue studies in applied music are
required to satisfy the instrumental or vocal qualifying audition designed for students outside
the School of Music; credits earned in applied music beyond the keyboard requirement stated
above are generally considered elective.) Students in this program may not use hours from
Music 100 toward the minimum 120 hours for graduation. Normally, students begin the study
of music theory with Music 101.
The remainder of the program, consisting of at least 8 to 9 additional hours of upper-level
music courses and 11 to 12 hours of cognate work in other fields, is planned by the student
with the help of a departmental adviser of his or her choice, subject to the approval of the
departmental advising chairperson. Three general options are available in the music concentra-
tion: music history, ethnomusicology, and music theory/composition. The choice of courses
within these options may vary considerably according to the interests of the student. The

Philosophy
Requirements: 44 hours, including
Philosophy courses: At least 23 hours
Cognate courses: At least 12 hours
Western civilization sequence: 6-8 hours as listed
Philosophy is the oldest, broadest, and most fundamental form of inquiry. Some philosophical
questions have to do with the understanding of ourselves and whatever else there may be.
Others concern the nature of different forms of knowledge and experience. And others have
to do with ethical issues and problems of value. The study of philosophy is one of the most
important elements in a good liberal education. Philosophical training is also very useful in
that it improves one's ability to think clearly and to construct, analyze, and criticize arguments
of any kind.
REQUIREMENTS
The concentration in philosophy involves taking a minimum of 44 hours of philosophy and
cognate course work and consists of four parts: (1) the core philosophy courses (14 hours); (2)
a cognate program, involving at least 12 hours of course work in some other department(s);
(3) a Western civilization sequence (6-8 hours); and (4) at least 9 hours of further course work
in philosophy beyond the 100 level, including at least two additional 300-level courses.
1. Core philosophy courses. If possible, concentrators should take these courses prior to their
senior year.
a. Either Phil. 102 (Logic and Reasoning) or Phil. 202 (Symbolic Logic). Students planning
graduate work in philosophy should take 202.
b. Phil. 203 (Ancient Philosophy).
c. Phil. 206 (Early Modern Philosophy).
d. Phil. 321 (Ethics and Value Theory).
2. Cognate course work. A concentrator may select either of two types of cognate program
and should work out a specific program of the type chosen with the help and approval of
a department adviser.
Option I: Intensive study in another discipline. This comprises a minimum of 12 hours of
course work, normally beyond the 100-level, in one other discipline.
Option II: A special program of study built around a unifying theme or topic. This will
274 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
involve a minimum of 12 hours of course work outside of philosophy in one or more other
discipline(s), normally beyond the 100-level, together with one or more philosophy course(s)
related to the theme or topic. The program may focus upon an historical period, a certain
subject (e.g., language, politics, science, religion, art), or a particular philosophical problem,
with outside course work in appropriate disciplines.
3. Western civilization sequence. To ensure that they have a general knowledge of western
civilization, all students in philosophy must take an approved two-semester sequence in
western civilization — currently either Hist. 111-112 or C. Lit. 141-142.
4. Further course work. The remainder of a student's concentration is planned by the student
with the help and approval of an adviser. It may include additional cognate courses but
must enable the student to satisfy the requirement of a total of at least 9 hours of course
work in philosophy beyond the 100-level (including at least two 300-level courses) in
addition to the core courses.
Departmental Distinction. Concentrators may become eligible for graduation with distinction
in philosophy in two ways: by pursuing either the thesis option or the course work option. (1)
The thesis option involves taking a total of at least 28 hours of course work in philosophy
and writing a thesis. (2) The course work option involves taking at least 35 hours of course
work in philosophy and accumulating a grade-point average in all philosophy courses taken
of at least 4.5. Further information is available in the department office.
Physics
Physics courses: 20 hours (200- or 300-level courses)
Cognates/prerequisites: 11 (or 10) hours of calculus, 12 hours of general physics, and 20 hours
(chosen in consultation with an adviser)
This field of concentration allows students maximum flexibility to develop scientifically oriented
careers in fields requiring a physics background. See also the Engineering Physics, LAS Physics,
and LAS Teaching of Physics curricula.
REQUIREMENTS
1. General physics and calculus satisfied by the sequence Phycs. 106, 107, and 108, or equivalent,

neering, environmental sciences (see departmental office for listing), geology, life sciences,
mathematics, philosophy, social sciences, and education oriented toward the teaching of
science.
Departmental Distinction. Same as those listed under the curriculum in physics. See page 287.
Political Science
Political science courses: 27 hours (including Pol. S. 150)
Cognate courses: 20 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
The Department of Political Science encourages students to acquire a broad understanding of
political science and to pursue in depth selected subfields of the discipline. To accomplish
these objectives, the department provides courses of study that introduce students to the
discipline and to its principal fields. Among these are American government, politics, and
administration; comparative government, politics, and administration; international relations,
organization, and foreign policy; normative theory; and political behavior and empirical theory.
Cognate courses are an integral part of the program and should be selected with a view toward
building a coherent selection adapted to the student's particular needs.
REQUIREMENTS
The field of concentration in political science requires 47 hours. Of these, 27 hours must be
within the Department of Political Science. They must include the following:
1. Pol. S. 150
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 275
2. Any three of the courses Pol. S. 100, 240, 260, 270, 280
3. At least four courses at the 300 level. (Most 300-level courses will require as a prerequisite
the appropriate 200-level course [or, in the case of American politics courses, 150] or
consent of instructor.) Up to 6 hours of credit in Pol. S. 299 may be substituted for 300-
level credit. Pol. S. 296 counts for this purpose as a 300-level course.
Not more than 6 hours of individual study courses in political science may be included in
the field of concentration. Pol. S. 293 is reserved for those seniors doing honors theses for
distinction in political science and may not be counted in the 47-hour minimum required for
the field of concentration.
Outside the department, at least 20 cognate hours are required in a field or fields to be
selected in conjunction with the student's adviser. Cognate courses should complement subfield
concentrations in political science chosen by the student. At least 12 of these 20 hours must
be at the 200-level or above.
Departmental Distinction. Concentrators earn distinction in political science with a 4.25 grade-
point average in political science courses that must include 4 hours of Pol. S. 293 (senior
honors thesis). See departmental academic adviser for details.
Portuguese
This concentration is sponsored by the Department of Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese. See
page 281.
Psychology
Psychology courses: 32 hours (including an introductory course)
Cognate courses: 12 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
Psychology is the scientific study of human and animal behavior. Psychologists study behavior
in systems ranging from single cells to the individual person, from small groups to communities.
Psychologists strive to describe behavior and to understand its underlying biological and social
mechanisms. This enterprise, designed to better understand human behavior, accumulates
knowledge that can help solve problems faced by individuals and by communities.
Some specializations in psychology:
Biological psychology is the study of the biological mechanisms underlying behavior. Biological
psychologists generally are interested in the brain and the nervous system, in the endocrine
system, and in other organismic processes.
Clinical psychology is the study of problems encountered by individuals, groups, and families
— especially problems involving psychopathology. Clinical psychologists are interested in the
application of psychological knowledge and techniques for the alleviation of these problems.
Community psychology is the study of social processes and problems of groups, organizations,
and neighborhoods, and the development and evaluation of progress for social change and
social policy based on psychological understanding.
Developmental psychology is the study of intellectual development, emerging personality, the
acquisition of language, as well as psychophysiological and social development processes as
individuals develop from birth through old age.
Engineering psychology uses scientific study to develop an understanding of human behavior,
and to improve the efficiency of interactions between humans and machines.
Experimental psychology is the study of basic behavioral and cognitive processes, including
learning, memory, perception, attention, problem solving, motivation, and psycholinguistics.
Measurement and mathematical psychology specialists develop mathematical models of
psychological processes and devise methods for quantitative representation and analysis of data
about behavior. These are used in the study of differences between individuals in ability,
personality, preferences, and other psychological phenomena.
Personality psychology focuses on individual behavior. It is the study of ways to understand
and describe an individual's behavior and to predict an individual's future behavior.
Personnel psychology is the application of techniques of assessment, prediction, and intervention
to areas of human resources in organizations, including, but not limited to, standard personnel
selection and training, attitude assessments and interventions, and program evaluations.
276 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Social psychology is the study of attitudes, social perception and cognition, interpersonal
relations, interpersonal interactions, and social and cultural factors affecting human behavior.

psychology that will complement the core program. These courses must be approved by an
academic adviser.
UNDERGRADUATE AREAS OF EMPHASIS
A number of emphases within the field of concentration in psychology are designed for students
who are seeking a general liberal arts degree, an applied degree, or a degree that will provide
a solid academic background in preparation for graduate education in psychology and related
fields. Lists of the required and suggested courses are available from the Psychology Under-
graduate Advising Office.
General psychology is designed for students interested in a broad liberal arts education with
psychology as a focal area and for students who plan to attend a graduate or professional
school in fields other than psychology. Examples of these specializations include premedicine,
prelaw, and preparation for graduate work in fields such as social work, business administration,
and labor relations.
Applied psychology is for students interested in learning skills necessary for jobs in certain
service areas that require a bachelor's degree only. The following programs are available:
1 . The Mental Health Workers Program is designed to develop knowledgeable and experimental
mental health practitioners capable of providing direct services to clients as well as supervise
lower-level staff in the implementation of treatment programs. Training includes a core of
general and mental health-related psychology courses and a series of field placements.
2. The Developmental Child Care Program is designed to prepare specialists who will be
working with children, including children with special needs such as those who are maltreated,
hospitalized, and delayed in physical and/or mental development, and children with problems
in social/emotional adjustment.
Graduate preparatory in psychology is designed mainly to provide students with a solid
academic background that will prepare them for graduate education in a number of psychology
specializations. Career opportunities in these specializations vary as does the required level of
graduate school training. While a doctorate is needed for most areas of academic psychology,
a master's degree is sufficient for careers in many applied psychology fields such as Personnel
Psychology, Measurement Psychology, and Engineering Psychology.
A Combined Engineering-Liberal Arts and Sciences Five-year Program leading to bachelor's
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 277
degrees from both colleges (see page 238) is available with a psychology concentration.
Piycholog) ind cognate courses, including allied courses in personnel psychology, are combined
with the Student's engineering curriculum to provide a specialization in engineering psychology.
Tailored to complement the engineering curriculum, this program can be of potential benefit
to the student's engineering career or used as the foundation for graduate training in engineering
psychology. An engineering psychology program might include Psych. 103, 158, 230, 235, 245,
248, 258, 301, J56, J57, and 330 or 390.
Departmental Distinction. Graduation with departmental distinction requires successful com-
pletion of the department's undergraduate honors program. This program is a three-semester
pattern of courses designed to offer promising undergraduates an opportunity to do sustained
scholarly work in a specific research project, culminating in the preparation of a bachelor's
thesis. Consult the Undergraduate Advisory Office for details.
ACADEMIC ADVISING
The Psychology Undergraduate Advising Office is open to help students choose patterns of
courses relevant to the various concentration options and specializations, as well as to help
students explore graduate school, professional school, and career options. Advising is done by
the faculty and a staff of academic counselors.
A Psychology Student Information Center (PSI Center), staffed by student volunteers, provides
student-to-student information about various department and community educational oppor-
tunities, career and graduate school planning, and related information.
Religious Studies
Religious studies courses: 24 hours (minimum)
Cognate courses: 6-8 hours of Western civilization, together with sufficient courses to total at least
48 hours for the concentration
The first area below, Religion and Culture, is designed for students seeking a broad liberal arts
education with a focus in religious studies. Persons thinking of the ministry or rabbinate are
encouraged to consider this area seriously. It should be recognized that the high number of
hours involved amounts to offering more than the usual guidance in the choice of electives.
The last five areas are designed especially for students thinking about graduate work in one
of the traditional areas of religious studies.

Rhetoric
This concentration is sponsored by the Department of English. See page 252.
Russian
Russian courses: 30 hours (beyond the 100-level)
Cognate courses: 20 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser), including 6-8 hours of Western
civilization
Russian is spoken by some 250 million people and is used by many more in the USSR and
the countries of Eastern Europe. Russian is now second only to English as the language of
science, and it is also the language of one of the world's great literatures. Persons trained in
Russian normally find employment in teaching, government service, journalism, and in research
in many areas. Many students majoring in other fields find it useful to learn Russian as a
valuable research tool.
The field of concentration in Russian consists of at least 50 hours distributed as follows:
1. At least 15 semester hours of Russian language from the following courses: Russ. 211, 212,
213, 214, 290, 303, 304, 313, 314. Six hours must be at the 300-level.

Russ. 215, 216, and either 315 or 317 are required. Students concentrating in Russian will
be required to read pans of the required material for courses on literature in translation in
the original.
3. At least 20 semester hours of cognate courses distributed as follows — 6-8 hours of Western
civilization (either Hist. 111-112 or C. Lit. 141-142) and one of the following:
a. Twelve to 14 hours of courses at the 200- or 300-level in a single language other than
Russian.
b. Twelve to 14 semester hours of courses in European literature.
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 279

350.
d. Twelve to 14 hours of intellectually or professionally coherent combination of courses
approved by the departmental adviser.
Departmental Distinction. Upon graduation, concentrators must have a grade-point average of
at least 4.30 in departmental courses to qualify for the various levels of distinction and must
take Russ. 293 (Senior Honors Thesis). By the second semester of their junior year, potential
candidates are urged to see the departmental adviser for further details.
Russian and East European Studies
Requirements: 56 hours (minimum)
Two specializations are offered: one in Russian language and area studies and another that
broadly focuses on Eastern Europe as well as Russia and the U.S.S.R. The aim of each
specialization is to provide the student with (a) a base in one discipline that will permit him
or her, without much additional work, to qualify for graduate study; (b) an interdisciplinary
focus on the geographic area selected; and (c) a start toward the language training needed for
the area chosen.
SPECIALIZATION IN RUSSIAN LANGUAGE AND AREA STUDIES
1. At least 16 hours of Russian language courses or equivalent proficiency are required. This
requirement may be met by completing Russ. 104. Persons contemplating graduate work in
this field are advised to learn as much Russian as soon as possible during their undergraduate
years.
2. At least 20 hours in courses that focus on Russia or the Soviet Union are required, including
at least one course from each of three departments other than the department used for
component (3). Although some of the courses used to count under (2) may be from the
same discipline as those under (3), any one course can be counted in only one category
rather than in both. Courses currently being offered that focus entirely on Russia and the
U.S.S.R. include: Anth. 381, 382; Econ. 357; Geog. 353; Hist. 219, 320, 321, 326, 327, 328;
Pol. S. 335, 383; Russ. 113, 114, 115, 116, 199, 222, 225, 315, 317, 324, 335, 337, 338,
360, 370; Soc. 350. Others may be counted with permission of the center director.
3. At least 20 hours in a single discipline are required. Among those disciplines that are most
commonly used with this specialization are anthropology, economics, geography, history,
political science, Russian, and sociology. Among disciplines also used are business admin-
istration, education, English, fine arts, French, German, journalism, linguistics, mathematics,
philosophy, psychology, and various natural sciences. Others are permitted. If a foreign
language is used for this component, 20 hours must be taken beyond the introductory
courses (i.e., normally the first two years, or the 101-104 sequence). Students are expected
to obtain the advice of a faculty member in their chosen discipline to help in the planning
of this pan of their program.
SPECIALIZATION IN EAST EUROPEAN AND RUSSIAN STUDIES
1. At least 16 hours (normally two college years) or equivalent proficiency in one approved
language (usually Russian), plus at least two semesters or equivalent proficiency in a second
approved language are required. Approved languages are languages used to a significant
extent in Eastern Europe or the Soviet Union or for the study of those areas. The choice
is to be made in consultation with the center director, who will take into account the
student's educational goals. Professional work in these areas usually requires extensive
language training.
2. At least 20 hours in courses focusing on Eastern Europe as well as Russia are required. (See
2 above.) Courses especially recommended also include: Hist. 329, 330; Pol. 345, 346; Pol.
S. 346; Slav. 319; Ukr. 398.
3. At least 20 hours in a single discipline are required. See (3) above.
Among the East European languages offered in addition to Russian are Bulgarian, Czech,
Hungarian, Polish, Rumanian, Turkish, Serbo-Croatian, and Ukrainian. Others, such as Latvian,
280 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Lithuanian, Macedonian, Modern Greek, Slovenian, and Uzbek, may be studied under special
arrangements, including those provided by the center.
Additional Courses. In addition to courses that deal wholly with Eastern Europe or the USSR
and are mentioned under both specializations, there are many others devoted to Russia and
Eastern Europe that are normally taught by faculty members who have some knowledge of
East European languages. They may be counted toward the above specializations if the center
director approves. In cases where only a small fraction of a course deals with Russia or Eastern
Europe, partial credit toward specialization requirements may be given. Students may consult
the center director for further information on such courses.
Departmental Distinction. Students who hope to qualify for distinction in the field sponsored
by this center should consult with the center director at the beginning of the junior year or
earlier to prepare a suitable plan. This plan will usually include the writing of a substantial
research paper in consultation with a faculty member of the center.
Sociology
Sociology courses: 30 hours (including Soc. 100)
Cognate courses: 12 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser)
Sociology is concerned with the explanation of human social behavior. Its scope is broad,
from the social forces shaping changes in entire societies and even the world as a whole, to
social relations among individuals. In studying phenomena ranging from wars and revolutions
to love and family structure, sociologists develop theories and conduct research to obtain a
greater understanding of the social processes that shape our lives.
REQUIREMENTS
The field of concentration requires at least 42 hours, of which 30 are in the Department of
Sociology and 12 (the cognate) are outside the department. The sociology hours include a core
of four required courses:
The introductory course (Soc. 100) o
Sociological theory (Soc. 200) -j-
Social statistics (Soc. 185)
Survey research methods (Soc. 281 or 381)
For the remaining 18 hours of sociology, concentrators may choose general sociology, taking
various courses, or they may choose an area of specialization. An area of specialization allows
students to focus their sociology studies toward their interests and goals. In each area of
specialization, the 18 hours must include at least two courses from a specified list (available
from the Department of Sociology office).
The areas of specialization are:
Criminology Pre-law
Family and Community Social Psychology
Health and Medicine Science and Technology
Industry, Work, and Occupations Research Methods/Social Statistics
International Studies Social Service and Government
Population Studies
Examples of requirements for two areas of specialization follow. Suggested patterns of both
sociology and cognate courses recommended for other specializations may be obtained from
the Department of Sociology office.
Health and Medicine. Recommended for students interested in medical and health-related
professions. Students must take at least two of the following: Soc. 264, 333, 337, 338, and
339. Approved cognate courses may be chosen from among the following: anthropology, health
and safety studies, psychology, social work, and life sciences.
Criminology. Recommended for students interested in professions related to the criminal justice
system. Students must take at least two of the following: Soc. 231, 317, 324, 331, and 358.
Cognate courses may be chosen from political science, psychology, and related fields.
Cognates. Cognates are designed to expand the student's education in social science or to help
prepare for professional school or a career. All cognate courses are taken outside the Department
of Sociology. A student may have a cognate in one department, such as psychology, economics,
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 281
history or statistics. Alternatively, he or she may assemble a cognate from courses related to
a profession, such as law, social work, business, or medicine.
Advising. Concentrators should see a departmental adviser at least once a year to choose
sociology courses, to develop a cognate, and to monitor progress.
Departmental Distinction. To graduate with distinction, a student must have a grade-point
a\erage of at least 4.5 and must complete a senior honors thesis. See an undergraduate adviser
for det.uU.
Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese
Spanish. Italian, or Portuguese courses: 26-27 hours (depending on concentration)
Cognate courses: 15-18 hours (chosen in consultation with an adviser, total of 44 hours, plus 6-8
hours of Western civilization)
SPANISH
The field of concentration requires 44 hours distributed as follows:

Joint Degree Programs
BACCALAUREATE-MASTER OF ACCOUNTING
SCIENCE DEGREE PROGRAM
The B.A./B.S.-M.A.S. program is designed to enable qualified students to earn both a bachelor's
degree in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Master of Accounting Science
degree in five years rather than the normal six years. The program integrates an undergraduate
education with a professional education without diluting the quality or purpose of either.
Program objectives will be met primarily by students completing courses during their fourth
year that are simultaneously electives in their baccalaureate programs and requirements for the
M.A.S. degree. Students who are interested in the joint degree should contact a program
adviser (in 270 Lincoln Hall) early in their initial year.
The program is open to all students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences who meet
the requirements below. In most cases, participants in the B.A./B.S.-M.A.S. program will
complete their undergraduate concentrations by the end of their third year. As a consequence,
308 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
some students will have to plan their course work carefully to meet their undergraduate
educational objectives and to participate in the program; this will be particularly true for
undergraduates whose concentrations require extensive sequential course work.
Since the B.A./B.S.-M.A.S. program is based on careful course selection and program
planning, interested students should consult with a B.A./B.S.-M.A.S. adviser during their first
year. The program's objectives and requirements will be explained so that the students, in
consultation with their baccalaureate degree program adviser, may plan their course work to
meet both objectives.
Students who wish to participate in the B.A./B.S.-M.A.S. program must make formal
application by March 31 in the second semester of their junior year. To be eligible for
consideration, they must have at least a 4.25 cumulative grade-point average with at least 75
hours of course work completed and at least a score of 550 on the Graduate Management
Admissions Test (GMAT).
BACCALAUREATE-MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
DEGREE PROGRAM
The B.A./B.S.-M.B.A. program is designed to enable qualified students to earn both a bachelor's
degree in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Master of Business Administration
degree in five years rather than the normal six years. The program integrates an undergraduate
education in such diverse fields as English, political science, or economics with a professional
business education without diluting the quality or purpose of either. Program objectives will
be met primarily by students' completing courses during their fourth year that are simultaneously
electives in their baccalaureate programs and requirements for the M.B.A. degree. Students
who are interested in the joint degree should contact the program adviser (270 Lincoln Hall)
early in their initial year.
The program is open to all students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences who meet
the requirements below. In most cases, participants in the B.A./B.S.-M.B.A. program will

year. To be eligible for consideration, they must have at least a 4.25 cumulative grade-point
average with at least 75 hours of course work completed and at least a score of 570 on the
Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT).
Preprofessional Health Programs
PREPROFESSIONAL TRAINING
Because of the very large number of students interested in the health and allied health
professions and the limited number of spaces in professional schools, the competition for
admission to professional programs is very severe. In reality, those admitted to professional
programs have academic records well above the stated minimum requirements. It is, therefore,
extremely important for students at the preprofessional level to plan for alternate academic
and career goals. Students interested in the health and allied health professions are directed
into degree programs in the college so that they can make progress toward meeting requirements
for a bachelor's degree at the same time that they complete course requirements for admission
to their desired health or allied health profession. By doing this, students who are not successful
in gaining admission to a professional program may complete a degree program without
prolonging study beyond eight semesters.
LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES 309
ACADEMIC ADVISING
Since students who arc interested in the health professions are expected to enter degree
programs of their choice, their academic advising is provided by the departmental offices of
the curricula or fields of concentration that they have selected. Generally, students interested
in dentistry, medical dietetics, medical laboratory sciences, or physical therapy are advised to
elect the general biology option as their field of concentration in life sciences. Students interested
in medical record administration, occupational therapy, pharmacy, or professional nursing are
advised to elect the general curriculum.
PROFESSIONAL SCHOOL ADVISING
Advising for professional schools and career advising for the following areas may be obtained
from the Health Professions Information Office: dentistry, allopathic medicine, osteopathic
medicine, optometry, and podiatry. The Health Professions Information Office is located at
710 South Goodwin Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801. The office serves as a resource center for
information concerning careers in the health professions, coordinates visits of deans and
admissions officers to this campus to interview prospective applicants and to acquaint students
with the unique educational features of their institutions, and provides personal and individual
career counseling and guidance for students who are interested in the health professions listed
above.
The office provides students who are planning to apply to professional schools in the health
professions listed above with standard faculty evaluation forms. Students may request letters
of evaluation from faculty at any time during their college career. The office will maintain the
letters in a confidential file and will duplicate and forward them, unedited, to the professional
schools designated by the student.
Advising about professional schools and career information for medical laboratory sciences,
nutrition and medical dietetics, and physical therapy, is available at the School of Life Sciences,
393 Morrill Hall, 505 South Goodwin Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801. Career advising for medical
record administration, nursing, occupational therapy, and pharmacy is available at the General
Curriculum Advising Office, 912 South Fifth Street, Champaign, IL 61820.
TRANSFER CREDIT FROM PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS
If a student has satisfied both college and concentration residency requirements, it is possible
to transfer basic medical science credit satisfactorily completed at a fully accredited medical,
dental, or veterinary medical school for courses acceptable to the field of concentration and
to apply that credit to the requirements for the baccalaureate degree from the College of
Liberal Arts and Sciences. The amount of transfer credit cannot exceed 30 semester hours,
and duplication of courses completed on this campus will not be permitted. Credit will be
counted only upon completion of one year's professional study.
Students planning to complete their baccalaureate-degree requirements by attendance at a
medical, dental, or veterinary medical school must obtain an evaluation of credit before
attending that school. Because it is quite possible that less than the maximum amount of credit
may be acceptable as transfer credit, it is essential that students consult their admissions and
records officer in the college office as early as possible.
If there is any question whether or not a course meets the criteria for acceptability or the
amount of credit to be granted, the student will be responsible for providing the necessary
information upon which the head of the appropriate department (or his or her designate) on
this campus will make a recommendation to the college regarding the acceptance of credit.
Final determination of the credit will be made by the dean of the College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences or his or her designate.
The prior agreement regarding transfer credit from professional schools must be included
in the student's field of concentration contract form.
PREPROFESSIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR DENTISTRY
Preprofessional training for dentistry is basically a three-year program, although 60 to 70
percent of the students who are admitted to dental schools have a bachelor's degree. It is
310 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
advisable, therefore, to complete the requirements for admission to dental school in conjunction
with fulfilling requirements for a bachelor's degree.
It is essential for students to know the specific requirements for admission to each of the
dental schools to which they apply. These requirements are listed in the Admission Requirements
of the American Dental Schools, published by the American Association of Dental Schools,
1625 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20036.
All U.S. and Canadian dental schools requite that: (1) All applicants take the Dental
Admissions Test (DAT) as recommended and approved by the American Dental Association.
For information concerning the test write to the Division of Educational Measurements,
American Dental Association, 211 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611. The application
forms can also be obtained from the Health Professions Information Office, 710 South Goodwin
Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801. (2) Letters of evaluation from all applicants. (3) An interview may
be requested by the Committee on Admissions. The American Association of Dental Schools
sponsors a centralized application service (AADSAS). Application request cards can be obtained
through the Health Professions Information Office, 710 South Goodwin Avenue, or by writing
AADSAS, P.O. Box 1003, Iowa City, I A 52240.
Courses should include:
Rhetoric: Two semesters. Recommended: Sp. Com. 111 and 112, or Rhet. 105 or 108, and 133.
Mathematics (prerequisites for chemistry and physics): Math. 112 and 114.
Chem. 101, 102; 131, 134, and 122 or 336 or Bioch. 350.
Biol. 110 and 111.
Phycs. 101-102 or 106, 107, and 108.
General education sequences: Humanities and social sciences.
Electives: Foreign language, Math. 120, social sciences, and humanities beyond the minimum
requirements strongly recommended.
PREPROFESSIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MEDICINE
Although a few students are admitted to medical school after three years of preprofessional
training, over 95 percent of the students have a bachelor's degree. Therefore, students should
pursue study in a degree program. There is no prescribed curriculum for premedical students.
The fields of concentration in life sciences, chemistry or biochemistry, and the curriculum in
chemical engineering are especially suitable since requirements in these curricula overlap to
some extent with medical school requirements. Any concentration in psychology or in the
humanities or fine arts is acceptable to medical school. Since students who are planning to
apply to medical schools will need a number of science courses (even if they are concentrating
in a nonscience area), it is important that students elect mathematics their first year since
calculus is a prerequisite for some courses in chemistry, physics, and the life sciences.
All American and Canadian medical schools require that: (1) All applicants take the Medical
College Admission Test (MCAT) as recommended and approved by the Association of American
Medical Colleges. The MCAT must be taken no later than October of the year prior to
enrollment. For information concerning the test, write to Medical Colleges Test, American
Testing Program, Box 168, Iowa City, I A 52240. The application forms can also be obtained
from the Health Professions Information Office, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign,
710 South Goodwin Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801. (2) Letters of evaluation from all applicants.
(3) An interview may be requested by the Committee on Admissions.
The American Association of Medical Schools sponsors a centralized application service,
the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). Applications are available only
from AMCAS, Suite 301, 1776 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20036. Application
request cards can be obtained from the Health Professions Information Office, 710 South
Goodwin Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801.
Students who anticipate a career in medicine are advised to obtain additional information
from those medical schools in which they are interested. Specific admission requirements for
individual medical schools are listed in Medical School Admission Requirements, published by
the Association of American Medical Colleges, One Dupont Circle, N.W., Washington, DC
20036.

GRADUATE STUDY 314
TEACHER EDUCATION MINOR IN LIBRARY SCIENCE 314
The Graduate School of Library and Information Science offers courses
leading to the Master of Science, the Certificate of Advanced Study, and the
Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The school also offers some courses which
may be taken by undergraduates as electives, or as a minor in the College
of Liberal Arts and Sciences or in the College of Education. These same
courses also may be taken as electives by students in other colleges.
A master's degree is the entry-level credential for professional work in
libraries and information centers. Generally, the most desirable preparation
for such graduate study is an undergraduate major in a subject other than
library and information science together with a related and appropriate
minor. History, literature, the social sciences, the natural sciences, and foreign
languages are all valuable. At the present time, such subjects as chemistry,
physics, mathematics, education, engineering, law, agriculture, and computer
science are particularly needed and, when combined with professional
training, can lead to a variety of interesting positions.
Persons considering library and information science as a minor should
meet with the dean of the Graduate School of Library and Information
Science to discuss the type of preprofessional education best suited to their
particular needs and interests.
GRADUATE STUDY
For information about the graduate programs in library and information science, see the
announcements of the Graduate School of Library and Information Science and the Graduate
College, or call or write to the dean of the Graduate School of Library and Information
Science.
TEACHER EDUCATION MINOR IN LIBRARY SCIENCE
The Graduate School of Library and Information Science offers courses for advanced under-
graduates in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences who wish to qualify both as classroom
teachers and as librarians in small elementary, junior high, and senior high schools, or as
assistant librarians in large schools. Full professional training leading to a master's degree in
library and information science is required of those who wish to prepare for positions in larger
schools, for supervisory positions in the school library field, and for positions as media
specialists.
Students interested in this program should contact the dean of the Graduate School of

School of Social Work
1 West Oregon Street, Urban*, II. 61801
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS 315
The School of Social Work offers a program of undergraduate and graduate
Study leading to the professional degrees of Bachelor of Social Work, Master
of Social Work, and Ph.D.
The undergraduate courses in social work are for those individuals who
wish to pursue a course of academic study and supervised field work that
prepares them for beginning professional social work practice and graduate
study in social work.
The Bachelor of Social Work (B.S.W.) program is accredited by the Council
on Social Work Education. The focus of the curriculum is on teaching the
basic knowledge, principles, and techniques needed by the graduate to assume
the beginning professional direct-service delivery role in a variety of social
service settings, including child welfare, corrections, mental health, family
services, health care, rehabilitation services, public assistance, and programs
for the aged. Attention is also directed to the development of interpersonal
competence as a significant part of the program of study. Finally, the
professional study is based on the general education components of the
University and study in relevant social, behavioral, and biological sciences.
Beginning freshmen interested in a career in social work are advised to
enroll in the general curriculum of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences
and to meet with a social work adviser as early as possible to plan a program
of study.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Students are admitted after completing 45 semester hours of undergraduate college-level work.
Admission is based on the following: (1) a grade-point average of at least 3.75 (A = 5.0), (2)
satisfactory- progress in the required general education course work, (3) demonstrated volunteer
and/or work experience in human service areas, and (4) a written statement of intent and
interest. Applicants with less than a 3.75 grade-point average or unfinished general education
courses will be considered if they demonstrate strong career motivation and aptitude. However,
opportunities for admission are reduced if all criteria are not met.
Students admitted as B.S.W. candidates are advised in the selection of a course of study that
will enable them to develop an appropriate knowledge and skill base for social work practice.
The B.S.W. curriculum emphasizes the acquisition of knowledge and skills leading to improved
communication, both oral and written; sharpened analytic ability; enhanced problem-solving

CURRICULUM 320
The College of Veterinary Medicine educates men and women in medical
disciplines involving the animal kingdom. The four-year professional curric-
ulum leads to the degree of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. The program
gives students a broad foundation in the biological and physical sciences
and practical knowledge in the application of these principles to the
prevention, control, and eradication of animal diseases. The college also
strives to emphasize the profession's obligation to society.
Veterinary medicine offers an unlimited variety of intellectual and scientific
challenges. Most veterinarians engage in specialized animal practice. Many
others are involved in public health activities which include controlling and
eradicating diseases, assuring the wholesomeness of food products, developing
and producing biological products and drugs, and enforcing health regulations
for transported animals. Still other veterinarians engage in teaching and
research.
Students receive the benefit of an instructional program constantly enriched
by the lastest advances in veterinary medicine. The first two years are devoted
largely to basic veterinary medical subjects; the final two years consist chiefly
of instruction in applied clinical subjects such as medicine, surgery, and
obstetrics. Most of fourth-year instruction is in clinic and laboratory areas,
enabling students to apply knowledge gained in classroom work to the
diagnosis, prevention, treatment, suppression, and eradication of disease.
The college is affiliated with the Agricultural Experiment Station and the
Cooperative Extension Service and is a component of the Graduate College.
It cooperates with the state Departments of Agriculture, Public Health,
Conservation, and the State Natural History Survey on various projects.
PREPROFESSIONAL COURSE REQUIREMENTS
The preprofessional program must include a minimum 60 semester hours (90 quarter hours)
of college-level courses, as specified below, and must be completed at accredited colleges or
universities. The courses in biology, chemistry, and physics are to be equivalent in content to
those recommended for students majonng in biological sciences. It is strongly recommended
that the science courses be taken on a graded basis.
Biological sciences: Two semesters (8 semester hours) or the equivalent of college-level course
work in biological sciences with appropriate laboratory experience. These courses should
emphasize the cellular, molecular, and genetic aspects, as well as the structure and function,
of living organisms.
Chemistry: Four semesters (16 semester hours) or the equivalent of college-level course work
318 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
in chemistry, including courses in organic chemistry and biochemistry. Laboratory work and
familiarity with quantitative techniques are important aspects of this experience. To be
acceptable, the biochemistry course must be 3 semester hours or 4 quarter hours and should
have organic chemistry as a prerequisite.
Physics: Two semesters (8 semester hours) or the equivalent of college-level course work in
physics with appropriate laboratory experience. These courses should include heat, light, sound,
electricity, and mechanics.
Genetics: One semester (3 semester hours) or the equivalent of college-level course work in
genetics.
Animal science: One semester (3 semester hours) or the equivalent of college-level course work
in surveying the livestock and poultry industries with emphasis on the breeding, selection,
feeding, and management of food animals. (For successful applicants who take their preprofes-
sional course work at an institution where an acceptable animal science course is not available,
this requirement may be satisfied at UIUC during the summer session prior to enrollment in
the College of Veterinary Medicine.)
English: One semester (3 semester hours) or the equivalent of college-level course work in
English composition.
Humanities and social sciences: Four semesters (12 semester hours) or the equivalent of college-
level course work in the humanities and/or social sciences.
Electives: Optional courses (7 semester hours). Preprofessional course requirements can be
completed at most collegiate institutions. Students wishing to complete preprofessional re-
quirements on the Urbana-Champaign campus of the University of Illinois may do so within
a variety of curricula in either the College of Agriculture or the College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences. Information regarding admission requirements to preprofessional programs offered
on the Urbana-Champaign campus may be obtained by writing the Office of Admissions and
Records, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 10 Administration Building, 506 South
Wright Street, Urbana, IL 61801.
The Committee on Admission of the College of Veterinary Medicine will consider an
application only if the applicant presents a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.5 (A
= 5.0) at the end of the fall term preceding the desired date of admission. The applicant must
also complete the 60 semester hours of preprofessional course requirements by the date of
desired admission.
ADMISSION
Data
Completion of the minimum academic requirements does not guarantee admission to the
professional curriculum. Because of limited facilities and the amount of support available to
the College of Veterinary Medicine, the number of students who enter the professional
curriculum each year must be restricted. Recently, there have been approximately three qualified
applicants for each place available in the entering class. The mean grade-point average of the
applicants selected has been slightly above the 4.50 (A = 5.0) level, and the mean number of
preprofessional hours completed has been near the 120-semester-hour level. This level of
competition is expected to continue. Most applicants who are admitted have a considerable
amount of experience with and exposure to animals and the veterinary profession, as well as
records of strong participation in community and extracurricular activities.
Application Procedure
Application materials for the professional curriculum are available from the Office of Admissions
and Records, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 10 Administration Building, 506
South Wright Street, Urbana, IL 61801, between September 1 and December 15. No application
materials will be mailed after December 1. (New students enter the College of Veterinary
Medicine in the fall only.)
All items submitted by the applicant (application form, fee, self-evaluation form, courses to
be completed form) must be received in the Office of Admissions and Records by 5:00 p.m.,
December 15. Letters of evaluation are also due December 15. All other required supporting
VETERINARY MEDICINE 319
credentials such as transcripts and Veterinary Aptitude Test (VAT) results must be received by-
February 1 tor the application to be complete and the applicant considered for admission.
Final grade* tor the tall term prior to enrollment must be on the transcript submitted for the
February 1 credentials deadline or consideration will be terminated. The application must be
.K^ompanied by a nonrefundable application fee of $25, which is used to partially cover the
cost of processing the application for presentation to the Committee on Admissions.
Requests for additional information should be directed to the Office of Admissions and
Records. You may write to the above address or visit the office at 177 Administration Building
from 8:30 a.m. to 12 noon and 1:00 to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Appointments are
recommended. You may also call at these times by dialing (217) 333-0302.
I. SELECTION CRITERIA (SUBJECT TO CHANGE)
Because of the size and quality of the applicant pool, only a few highly qualified applicants
have been admitted with the minimum of 60 hours in recent years. Therefore, students who
have completed the minimum requirements but have not been admitted to the College of
Veterinary Medicine are urged to structure their programs to qualify for a bachelor's degree
in their area of study within the normal four-year period.
In addition to submitting official transcripts of all collegiate work attempted, applicants must
also provide official scores of their performance on the Veterinary Aptitude Test. These scores
will be sent to the Office of Admissions and Records from the private organization administering
the examination (The Psychological Corporation, 555 Academic Court, San Antonio, Texas
78204). The examination is offered at various nationwide locations during the late fall and
winter of each year. Information on arranging to take the examination is available in the
application packet for the College of Veterinary Medicine.
Three letters of evaluation are required from persons who can evaluate the applicant's
experience and ability relating to professional and scientific study. Two letters should be from
college instructors or academic advisers. A letter from a practicing veterinarian is highly
desirable. Students who are currently enrolled in graduate school must accompany their
applications with a letter from their graduate adviser delineating current status in graduate
school and the likely completion date of the graduate program.
Applicants are expected to demonstrate potential for contribution to and advancement of
the profession. An interview may be required by the committee as a means of supplementing
information obtained from the materials submitted.
Preference is given to residents of Illinois. A limited number of nonresidents with superior
qualifications may be admitted. Opportunities for admission of foreign students are virtually
nonexistent.
The professional program of the College of Veterinary Medicine is accessible to qualified
persons, and such persons will not be denied admission on the basis of handicap. A qualified
person is one who meets the academic and technical standards requisite to admission and
participation in the educational program of the college. During their course of study, students
treat animal patients while under the supervision of veterinary practitioners. Such clinical duties
may not be waived since they are an essential part of the educational program. The technical
standards of the college (as well as the veterinary medical profession) require that the safety
of both animal patients and veterinary students be protected. The student shall not cause a
health or safety hazard to the animal patients or to other persons.
II. POINT RANKING SYSTEM (SUBJECT TO CHANGE)
Applicants are currently ranked on the basis of a 100-point scale, with the allocation of points
distributed among the following criteria:
Objective Measures of Academic Performance
Seventy points — from grade-point averages determined from official college transcripts and
from Veterinary Aptitude Test (VAT) results. The cumulative grade-point, science grade-point,
and total number of graded science hours completed, in addition to the score earned on the
VAT, will most likely be used to allocate these points. (If the VAT test is taken more than
once, the highest of the two most recent test scores will be used. The VAT test score must
be for a test taken during the current or preceding year's application period.) A limit on total
hours may be imposed in the graded science hours category.
320
UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Subjective Measures — Personal
Thirty points — allocated by College Admission Advisory Committee on the basis of information
submitted with the application and letters of recommendation indicating the applicant's
knowledge of, motivation toward, and experience with the veterinary profession; evidence of
leadership, initiative, and responsibility; animal contact and experience; extracurricular factors
influencing personal growth.
Bonus Points
Up to eight bonus points may be given to applicants for ancillary factors that have influenced
academic performance: consistently heavy course loads; the quality of courses or course
sequences; and significant improvement following a "poor start." Bonus points are recalculated
each year for applicants who reapply.
COSTS
The estimated tuition and fees for a student enrolled in a full or partial academic program are
shown on pages 50 and 52. Each entering first-year veterinary student must provide a microscope
for his or her own classroom use before the semester begins. Minimum specifications for these
microscopes are established by the college and will be provided to the student upon notification
of admission. This represents a recoverable investment of $750 or more.
HONORS PROGRAMS
For information about University Honors and the Dean's List, see pages 79 and 80.
Honors at Graduation
Honors are awarded to superior students in the professional curriculum. For graduation with
Honors, a student must have a grade-point average of not less than 4.35 (A = 5.0) in all
courses completed in the College of Veterinary Medicine; for graduation with High Honors,
a grade-point average of not less than 4.75 is required.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
Students who have fulfilled their general education course requirements, passed all courses in
the first two years of the veterinary medicine curriculum, and who have a cumulative grade-
point average of 3.0 (A = 5.0) or better in these courses, are eligible for the degree of Bachelor
of Science in Veterinary Medicine.
Students who have passed all courses prescribed in the four-year veterinary medicine
curriculum and who have a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 (A = 5.0) or better in these
courses are eligible for the degree of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (D.V.M.)

Appendix D: University of Illinois Regulations
Governing the Determination of Residency
Status for Admission and Assessment of
Student Tuition
March 1984
For the purpose of these regulations, an "adult" is considered to be a student eighteen years
of age or over; a "minor" student is a student under eighteen years of age. The term "the
State" means the State of Illinois. Except for those exceptions clearly indicated in these
regulations, in all cases where records establish that the person does not meet the requirements
for resident status as defined in these regulations the Nonresident status shall be assigned.
1. Residency Determination
Evidence for determination of residence status of each applicant for admission to the
University shall be submitted to the Director of Admissions and Records at the time of
application for admission. A student may be reclassified at any time by the University upon
the basis of additional or changed information. However, if the student is classified in
error as a Resident student, the change in tuition shall be applicable beginning with the
term following the reclassification; if the student is classified in error as a Nonresident,
the change in tuition shall be applicable to the term in which the reclassification occurs,
provided the student has filed a written request for a review in accordance with these
regulations.
2. Adult Student
An adult, to be considered a Resident for purposes of admission, must have been a bona
fide resident of the State for a period of at least six consecutive months immediately
preceding the date of receipt of the application for admission. An adult, to be considered
a Resident for purposes of assessment of student tuition, must have been a bona fide
resident of the State for a period of at least six consecutive months immediately preceding
the beginning of any term for which the adult registers at the University, and must continue
to maintain a bona fide residency in the State. An adult whose parents (or one of them if
only one parent is living or the parents are separated or divorced) have established and
are maintaining a bona fide residence in the State and who resides with them (or the one
residing in the State) or elsewhere in the State will be regarded as a Resident applicant or
student.
3. Minor Student
The residence of a minor shall be considered to be, and to change with and follow:
a. That of the parents, if they are living together, or living parent, if one is dead; or
b. If the parents are separated or divorced, that of the parent to whom the custody of
the person has been awarded by court decree or order, or, in the absence of a court
decree or order, that of the father unless the person has continuously resided with the
mother for a period of at least six consecutive months immediately preceding registration
at the University, in which latter event the residence shall be considered to be that of
the mother; or
c. That of the adoptive parents, if the person has been legally adopted and, in the event
the adoptive parents become divorced or separated, that of the adoptive parent whose
residence would govern under the foregoing rules if that parent had been a natural
parent; or
APPENDICES 347
d. That of the legally appointed guardian of the person; or
e. That of a "natural" guardian, such as a grandparent, adult brother or adult sister, adult
uncle or aunt, or other adult with whom the person has resided and has been supported
by for a period of at least six consecutive months immediately preceding registration
at the University for any term if the person's parents are dead or the person has been
abandoned and if no legal guardian of the person has been appointed and qualified.
4. Parent or Guardian
Except as provided in paragraph 10 of these Regulations, no parent or legal or natural
guardian will be considered a resident of the State unless that person (a) maintains a bona
fide and permanent place of abode within the State, and (b) lives, except when temporarily
absent from the State with no intention of changing legal residence to some other state
or country, within the State.
5. Emancipated Minor
A minor who has been emancipated, is completely self-supporting, and actually resides in
the State shall be considered to be a Resident even though the parents or guardian may
reside outside the State. An emancipated minor who is completely self-supporting shall be
considered to "actually reside in the State of Illinois" if the minor has maintained a
dwelling place within the State uninterruptedly for a period of at least six consecutive
months immediately preceding the beginning of any term for which the minor registers at
the University. Marriage or active military service shall be regarded as effecting the
emancipation of minors, whether male or female, for the purposes of this regulation. An
emancipated minor whose parents (or one of them if only one parent is living or the
parents are separated or divorced) have established and are maintaining a bona fide residence
in the State and who resides with them (or the one residing in the State) or elsewhere in
the State will be regarded as a Resident student.
6. Persons Without United States Citizenship
A person who is not a citizen of the United States of America, to be considered a resident
must have permanent resident, refugee, asylum, parolee, or G-4 visa status, with the United
States Immigration and Naturalization Service, and must also meet and comply with all of
the other applicable requirements of these regulations to establish resident status.
To the extent that federal law enables persons with visas in categories A, E, G, I, or L
to establish an Illinois residence for tuition purposes, such persons shall be deemed to be
in the same category as a person who has G-4 visa status.
7. Married Student
A nonresident student who is a citizen of the United States of America or who holds
permanent resident, refugee, asylum, parolee, or G-4 visa status with the United States
Immigration and Naturalization Service, whether male or female, or a minor or adult, who
is married to a person who meets and complies with all of the applicable requirements of
these regulations to establish resident status shall be classified as a resident.
To the extent that federal law enables persons with visas in categories A, E, G, I, or L
to establish an Illinois residence for tuition purposes, such persons shall be deemed to be
in the same category as a person who has G-4 visa status.
8. Armed Forces Personnel
A person who is actively serving in one of the Armed Forces of the United States and
who is stationed and present in the State in connection with that service and submits
evidence of such service and station, and the person's spouse and dependent children,
shall receive waiver of the Nonresident portion of tuition as long as the person remains
stationed and present in Illinois and the spouse or dependent children also live in the
State.
9. Minor Children of Parents Transferred Outside the United States
The minor children of persons who have resided in the State for at least six consecutive
months immediately prior to a transfer by their employers to some location outside the
United States shall be considered Residents. However, this shall apply only when the
minor children of such parents enroll in the University within five years from the time
their parents are transferred by their employer to some location outside the United States.
348 UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
10. Staff Members of the University and of Allied Agencies, and Faculties of State-Supported
Institutions of Higher Education in Illinois
Staff members of the University and of allied agencies, and faculties of state-supported
institutions of higher education in Illinois, holding appointment of at least one-quarter
time, and their spouses and dependent children, shall be treated as Residents.
11. Teachers in Private and Public Schools in Illinois
Teachers in the private and public elementary and secondary schools in Illinois shall, if
subject to the payment of tuition, be assessed at the Resident rate during the term in
which the staff member or teacher holds such an appointment at least one-quarter time.
This privilege also extends to the summer session or off-quarter vacation immediately
following the term for which such appointment was effective. Any Nonresident student
who qualifies for Resident tuition by reason of an appointment described in 10 or 11
above shall become subject to Nonresident tuition for the entire term if the appointment
qualifying the student for the Resident benefit is vacated prior to completion of three-
fourths of the term in question. Resignation or cancellation of the appointment prior to
the close of the spring term also cancels the eligibility for the Resident tuition privilege
in the following summer or Off-Quarter Vacation Term.
12. Definition of Terminology
To the extent that the terms "bona fide residence," "independent," "dependent," and
"emancipation" are not defined in these regulations, definitions shall be determined by
according due consideration to all of the facts pertinent and material to the question and
to the applicable laws and court decisions of the State of Illinois.
Voter registration, filing of taxes, proper license and registration for the driving or
ownership of a vehicle, and other such transactions may verify intent of residency in a
state. Neither length of University attendance nor continued presence in the University
community during vacation period shall be construed to be proof of Illinois residence.
The term "staff member" as used in these regulations shall mean a person appointed to
an established position for a specific amount of time at a salary commensurate with the
percentage of time required, under an appointment requiring service for not less than
three-fourths of the term. The term "staff member" as defined herein shall not apply to
persons employed on an hourly basis in either an academic or nonacademic capacity, nor
to persons on leave without pay. Persons appointed to established Civil Service positions
whose rate of pay is determined by negotiation or prevailing rates shall not be considered
as being paid on an hourly basis.
13. Procedure for Review of Residency Status and/or Tuition Assessment
A student who takes exception to the residency status assigned and/or tuition assessed
shall pay the tuition assessed but may file a claim in writing to the Director of Admissions
and Records for a reconsideration of residency status and/or an adjustment of the tuition
assessed. For purposes of admission, the written claim must be filed within twenty calendar
days from the date of notification of residency status. For purposes of assessment of
tuition, the written claim must be filed within twenty days of the date of assessment of
tuition or the date designated in the official University calendar as that upon which
instruction begins for the academic period for which the tuition is payable, whichever is
later. Students who file after the twenty-day period lose all rights to a change of status
and/or adjustment of the tuition assessed for the term in question. If the student is
dissatisfied with the ruling in response to the written claim made within said period, the
student may appeal the ruling to the University Counsel by filing with the Director of
Admissions and Records within twenty days of the notice of the ruling a written request.
If such a written request is filed within said period, the question of residency status under
the provisions of these regulations and of applicable laws shall be referred by the Director
of Admissions and Records through the Campus Legal Counsel to the University Counsel,
whose decision shall be final.
These regulations shall remain in full force and effect unless and until subsequently amended
or repealed by action of the Board of Trustees.
