Admission
Admission to the Certificate Program requires active standing in the Graduate
College. Applicants submit a statement of purpose and evidence of scholarly
or creative work to the Center. For more information about admission,
contact the UICB.
Application(s)
The deadline for application for fall enrollment in the Certificate Program
is February 1, with notification made by March 1. The deadline for spring
enrollment is October 1, with notification made by November 1. Deadlines
for schools and departments may differ.
Graduate College Applications
Prospective students applying only to the Center's Graduate Certificate Program must complete the application for "Nondegree Graduate Students" (nondegree Center certificate students are not subject to the two-classes-per-semester maximum). On this form, be sure to write "Graduate" under item B1. The prospective nondegree student must also submit a transcript that shows completion of a bachelor's degree.
For those applying to a graduate degree program alongside the Center's Certificate Program, the application for "Graduate & Professional Programs" must be completed. As part of the degree application, prospective students must include a transcript that shows all collegiate work completed.
Advising
Once accepted into the Certificate Program, students will be placed in
touch with the UICB academic advisor to discuss their interests and coursework.
The student may select another faculty member or professional in his or
her interest area to serve as an ongoing advisor.
