Central Illinois Foreign Language/International Studies Consortium

Five colleges and universities in central Illinois — Illinois College and MacMurray College in Jacksonville, and the University of Illinois at Springfield, Benedictine University at Springfield and Lincoln Land Community College in Springfield — have formed a consortium to expand opportunities for study in foreign language and international studies. The following agreement has been established offering students courses in foreign language/international studies, which are unavailable at the home institution. The conditions for enrollment listed below have been established:

  • Registration is accepted on a space-available basis.

  • The course credit is counted as credit at the home college.
  • Students are required to conform to the requirements of the accepting college.
  • Arrangements for each exchange are made through the offices of the representatives at the institutions involved. The registration shall be complete only when both representatives agree to the registration. Some institutions may also require that the instructor be in agreement about accepting these students.
  • The college accepting these students may limit the number of students it is willing to receive from the home college. It also may limit the number of exchange students in any particular class.
  • Upon completion of the course, the instructor of the college accepting these students report grades to his or her dean or department chair for transmission to the home college.
  • Transportation costs are the responsibility of the students involved.
  • There is no transmission of tuition funds between home college and colleges accepting these students.
  • Interested students should contact a foreign language instructor for guidance.
