Arrival Information - Fall 2024

  • Please plan to arrive in Champaign-Urbana no later than Saturday, August 17. We highly recommend you arrive even earlier, so that you have time to recover from jet lag, set up your household, and to take care of university matters.

    Arrival after August 17 is subject to approval. We are ONLY considering those who are not able to obtain a visa in time to arrive to campus on or before August 17; proof will be required. Email the MSPE office for approval.
     
  • English Placement Test (EPT)--ONLY for those international students who are required to take the EPT (check your Notice of Admission). The EPT is mandatory for new international students whose TOEFL score is below 103 (TOEFL iBT) or IELTS score is below 7.5.

    The EPT is administered online, and registration and/or testing is now open. Please register for your EPT now, as test dates quickly fill up.


    We HIGHLY recommend you register for one of the two MSPE private sessions, which are scheduled on August 5 or 12, or an earlier test if you prefer. You will not be permitted to register for your fall 2024 courses until we have received your test results

    Email the MSPE office with your EPT test date and time.
