Midstate College welcomes applications from men and women whose academic record, personal ability, and desire to succeed show promise for success. Each candidate for admission is considered individually on merit and potential. Midstate College requires a high school diploma or GED for all degree- or diploma-seeking students. Students may also be admitted to Midstate College upon completion of an accredited associate degree program. To ensure compliance with state regulations, students must be approved to enroll from any state other than Illinois. Students who submit an application at a distance will be required to submit a notarized copy of his/her driver's license or state-issued identification. Additionally, some programs have requirements that must be met before acceptance into the program. Such requirements are outlined with the program information. Please note these requirements carefully. Counseling is provided by an admissions representative during a personal conference. Applicants are advised to enter programs in accordance with intellectual, academic, and interest criteria.
All applicants are required to complete an entrance examination prior to their admission to Midstate College. Examination scores will be used for admission, placement, and academic counseling. Academic counseling is provided by admissions representatives, program directors, and the Chief Academic Dean. Failure to take the entrance examination will result in the applicant being denied entrance into the College.
Individuals interested in entering Midstate College are urged to submit their applications as soon as possible. Current high school students (with the approval of their secondary school) may submit their records during their junior year, based upon the assumption that their senior year performance will be similar in quality to that of the first three years of secondary school. Midstate College reserves the right to re-evaluate the admissibility of any applicant whose secondary school performance indicates below average achievement. Applicants are informed of acceptance promptly after the application is received once all requirements have been met. The administration reserves the right to refuse applications for admission or readmission.
Prior to attending classes, the student has the right to cancel enrollment. The request for cancellation must be communicated to an admissions representative before the end of the fifth business day for a full refund of the application fee. Midstate College also reserves the right to cancel any enrollment. Reasons for cancellation may be obtained from the Admissions Department.
