Types of Admission

Undergraduate Admissions

If you're currently in high school or have never attended college, applying for undergraduate admission as an incoming freshman is for you.

Graduate Admissions

If you've already earned a bachelor's degree and are interested in furthering your education with a graduate degree or second bachelor's degree, you'll want to apply for admission to The Graduate School.

Transfer Admissions

Looking to make the move to EIU from a community college or another university? Transfer students make up 35 percent of our undergraduate population, and our Office of Transfer Relations is here to ensure a smooth transition.

International Admissions

EIU is proud to be an excellent home for students from outside the United States. If you fit that bill, you can apply for international admission.

Interdisciplinary Studies Admissions

Not all potential students are high school seniors or community college transfers, which is why our BA in Interdisciplinary Studies program exists. It is specifically designed to meet the educational goals of mature adults in a format and structure compatible with adult responsibilities.

RN to BS In Nursing Admissions

Registered nurses (RNs) who are already licensed to practice and newly graduated non-licensed ADN's who are ready to advance to a BSN degree from EIU should apply to our RN to BS in Nursing program.

OPD Admissions

The Organizational and Professional Development (OPD) bachelor's degree program revolves around a distinct field of academic study focused on an understanding of the human aspects of professional organizations, aspects such as people, processes and practices.
