How do I register for Illinois Tech classes while in a joint program?
Once you are enrolled in the joint engineering program, you are considered an Illinois Tech student and will have a designated Illinois Tech adviser. Please work closely with your Illinois Tech adviser to plan your Illinois Tech courses and obtain necessary course permits in advance of each term’s registration period. Illinois Tech registration periods are listed on the Academic Calendar.
Please consult your home institution for instructions on how Illinois Tech courses should be documented at that institution.
Will my home institution inform Illinois Tech of registration changes made at that institution?
No. Changes made at your home institution, e.g. dropping a class or taking a leave of absence, do not get reported to Illinois Tech. You must register these changes with Illinois Tech as well. In particular, please review Illinois Tech’s add/drop deadline each semester, as it may differ from the requirements at your home institution. Please view the Academic Calendar for term-specific dates.
How may I track my Illinois Tech degree progress?
Joint program students can access Undergraduate Degree Works through their portal. Students may print their unofficial transcript through the “Class History” link in Undergraduate Degree Works. Alternatively, students can login to the Illinois Tech Portal and search for the "View Unofficial Transcript" tool.
How am I billed for the joint program?
Illinois Tech will bill our partner institution for any courses you may take as part of the joint engineering program. Your home institution will bill you for all courses taken at Illinois Tech and at your home institution.
Why am I being offered the Illinois Tech Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP)?
All full-time and part-time Illinois Tech students are automatically enrolled in SHIP. If you have health insurance coverage through your parents or your home institution and wish to waive the Illinois Tech coverage, you will need to complete the Illinois Tech annual electronic health insurance waiver. More information is available at the Student Health and Wellness Center website.
Am I eligible for the Accelerated Masters Program?
Students enrolled in the joint engineering program are eligible to apply for the Accelerated Master's Program - Advanced Standing (AMP-AS). Students enrolled in the joint engineering program are not eligible for the Accelerated Master's Program - Plus One (AMP-P1) due to financial aid regulations and degree awarding requirements. Please see the catalog for more information on the Accelerated Master's Program.
