Should you commute or live on campus? It’s a good question, but only you know the answer. You'll want to be thoughtful about your time, money, lifestyle and personal goals. 

Campus Announcements will end on Friday, May 29, at 8:59 a.m. Submissions received after this deadline will not be accepted.

Choosing a college is a big decision. You want a place where you can learn, grow and feel like you belong! A connected public university like the University of Illinois Springfield gives you the best of all worlds.

Here’s why:

Personalized Attention

At a UIS, you learn in a collaborative environment. Your professors know your name, your goals and your strengths. Both inside and outside of the classroom, you can ask questions, join discussions and get help when you need it.

Going back to school as an adult can feel like a big step. Many adult learners balance jobs, families and other responsibilities while working toward a degree. However, at the University of Illinois Springfield, our students are proving that it’s never too late to reach new goals.

Dear Students, Faculty and Staff:

The University of Illinois Springfield and the UPI Local 4100 Tenured/Tenure-Track Faculty Union have reached a tentative agreement on the terms of a 3-year contract. Union members have agreed to resume teaching on Monday, April 20. Students should resume attending all scheduled classes.

In the coming weeks, the parties will go through their respective processes to approve the terms of the agreement. Full details of the contract terms will be available for public release following that process.

Dear UIS Community: 

Collective bargaining negotiations between UIS and the union representing tenured and tenure-track faculty continued today. The parties met for 4.5 hours and discussed open issues. Questions were asked and answered, but no proposals were exchanged. UIS has requested to meet again on Thursday, April 16.
