Students registering for GIS courses after 08/24/08 will have 6 months to complete their course.
Course Extensions
If you feel that you cannot complete the course in the nine-month course completion period, you may request a single, three-month extension. An extension requires a written request submitted seven business days prior to the end of your nine-month course completion period, an additional fee (of $100), and GIS approval. Send:
- Either this form or a written request
- A check (payable to the University of Illinois) or credit card information to:
Guided Individual Study, Academic Outreach
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
302 East John Street, Suite 1406
Champaign, Illinois 61820
Note that this additional fee is not covered by scholarships. Your request will be reviewed, and you will be notified. If your request is not approved, the fee will be refunded.
Course Transfers
Once enrolled in a GIS course, you are allowed to transfer only once to another GIS course and only if the transfer request is received within two months of your original enrollment date. A transfer fee of $20 will be assessed, and you will be charged $12 per lesson from the original course that you submitted to the GIS program. In addition, any difference in tuition charges must be paid. Refunds will not be given for lower tuition charges for the new course.
