Application
Requirements
To enroll in the certificate program,
a student must have a Bachelors degree or is currently a senior in a non-cartography
program at UI.
1. For students with a BS or BA degree:
-
If you think you might eventually be
interested in obtaining an MS degree, you can apply for admission to the
College of Graduate Studies. Follow graduate admission requirements
for the University and the Geography Department.
-
If you are not interested in the possibility
of using the certificate courses toward a graduate degree, you can apply
for admission as a non-degree student. Follow admission requirements
for non-degree status.
-
If you are interested in qualifying
for scholarships or other financial aid, you can enroll as an undergraduate
student in one of our BS programs (BS Geography or BS Cartography).
This will allow you to complete the certificate courses as a degree candidate,
whether or not you intend to complete the degree. Follow admission
procedures for undergraduate admission.
2. For UI non-cartography undergraduates:
-
Notify the Geography Department
of your intention, and complete the certificate requirements.
