Official UIC application
Complete the undergraduate application online—just follow the instructions listed there, selecting Nutrition/Health Info Mgmt for the application type. There is a nonrefundable application fee of $60 for all non-UIC transfer applicants.
Transcripts
Request official registrar-issued transcripts to be sent directly to the UIC Office of Admissions from all colleges or universities you’ve attended, including mark sheets and grading scale legends.
Course outline
Submit a course outline form. Next to each course, indicate where the course was completed. Include the term, year, letter grade received—not the numeric score—and all courses in progress.
International students Heading link
If you’re granted immigrant, permanent resident, temporary resident, refugee, parolee or conditional entrant status, you must attach a clear photocopy (front and back) of your Alien Registration Card and/or other appropriate INS documentation. Be aware that submission of these copies is no guarantee of their acceptability. Additional documentation and/or review of original documents may be required.
Evidence of financial support
If you require an F-1/J-1 visa, you must submit evidence of financial support through a notarized Declaration and Certification of Finances form and Immigration and Naturalization Service’s Affidavit of Support Form (I-134) executed by the sponsor; or a notarized affidavit of support executed by the sponsor.
Any of these forms must be notarized and accompanied by a copy of a bank statement showing proof of sufficient funds in U.S. dollars. Checking accounts are unacceptable.
