Admissions

We are prepared to help you go as far as you want to go in your academic career.

Admission of students who do not meet the automatic admission requirements may be subject to conditions. Those who do not meet the automatic admission criteria and/or who do not satisfy the review process will be denied. For admission to a particular college or school, the faculty of that college or school may, upon approval of the Chancellor, establish additional admission requirements beyond the university's minimum standards for admission.

If you are beginning your college career and you are seeking a bachelor’s degree or an associate’s degree, you are an undergraduate. You’ll start the application process with Undergraduate Admissions. They’ll walk you through the steps and answer your questions. They might even answer a few you didn’t know you should ask.

If you are coming to SIU as an undergraduate from another university or college, you are a transfer student. You will want to use many of the same services as new freshmen, but you’ll also want credit for the college work you’ve already done. We want to make the transfer process a barrier-free one, and we’ll go out of our way to make sure that happens.

Graduate students apply to the Graduate School with a particular degree in mind, or they apply as a Nondeclared Graduate Student. Our graduate programs take you to that next level you seek. Initiative is always rewarded at SIU.
