Residence Requirements

All undergraduate degree-seeking students must observe the following residence requirements:

  • Once enrolled at Illinois Institute of Technology, a student is not permitted to enroll at another institution without obtaining permission. A student must submit an academic petition to the Office of Academic Affairs for approval prior to registration at another institution.
  • A course completed at Illinois Institute of Technology can only be repeated at Illinois Institute of Technology. No transfer credit will be awarded for any course equivalent to a course completed at Illinois Institute of Technology.
  • There is no maximum number of hours of transfer credit from a four-year college; however, the final 45 semester hours of any degree program must be completed at Illinois Institute of Technology. Any proficiency examinations or enrollment at another institution must be completed before this period.
  • Any Co-terminal or Accelerated Master’s Program with both bachelor’s and master’s components in the same department is to be considered a unified degree program for this purpose, and thus all graduate coursework in such a program may count towards these 45 semester hours.
