As you complete a year of planning and prepare for your life at Illinois State University, make sure to finalize your admission profile. You will want to do this before you move-in and start classes.
Upon your graduation from high school, we will need an official final high transcript with your graduation date submitted into our Office of Admissions. Usually, your high school will send that document directly into our office. Once received, we will update your file to reflect your final high school academic status.
When a student applies and submits his or her official high school transcript, an unofficial copy of the test scores is sometimes included. These test scores, though unofficial, are used for the initial review of admission. Yet, the official scores are required in order to accurately report our statistical data to the State of Illinois. If you requested the official scores to be sent to Illinois State University when you initially took your exam, we should have those scores on file. If not, those test scores must be requested directly from the respective agency.
Please visit either the ACT or SAT web sites to find out how to send your scores.
To submit transcripts from college courses you have taken or for Advanced Placement information, please visit the Earning College Credit section of our site.
Visit our Welcome2ISU section to ensure your admission has been finalized. While you may have been conditionally admitted at the beginning of this process, at this point the status of your application should read, “Final Admit.”
Please contact the Office of Admissions with any questions you may have at (309) 438-2181, or toll free at (800) 366-2478 or admissions@illinoisstate.edu
