What is the application deadline?
The application deadline for the Fall 2026 term is August 10, 2026, and for the Spring 2027 term it is December 28, 2026, for most programs. While we encourage application early so they have the best selection of courses, we allow students to begin classes through the first week. Some programs have different application deadlines, so be sure to check your program's webpage for the most accurate information.
UIS offers rolling admissions, which means applications are reviewed and admission decisions are made throughout the year. Your ability to start in a particular term depends on several factors, including:
- Completion of your application
- Review of transfer credits (if applicable)
- Receipt of all required supporting documents
- Finalizing your funding plan
Most applications take 2–3 weeks to process after all required materials have been received. For important academic dates and deadlines, please view the Academic Calendar.
