Before You Begin

Students at Illinois State University are expected to declare a major by the time they have completed 75 course hours.

As you approach this deadline, you will receive multiple notifications warning you of failing to meet this requirement. You will also be informed of the 75-hour appeal process in which you must describe your plan for admission to a major.

As a student who has completed 75 course hours but has not declared a major, you must complete the 75-hour appeal process to remain a student and continue to be eligible for financial aid.
