Registration and Tuition Information

Registration for online Bilingual & ESL Endorsement/Approval courses is now open to post-baccalaureate students (i.e. you have earned your bachelor's degree, or equivalent)! Since course sequence is not crucial, you can enter the program at any point. Please check carefully to see which courses are required for the endorsement goal you have chosen.

There are two types of audiences served by the Online Bilingual & ESL Endorsements/Approvals: those currently enrolled at Illinois as a degree-seeking student; and students not currently enrolled at Illinois, who are considered non-degree seeking students. The registration process is slightly different, depending on which category you fall into:

Degree students will register through the Banner Enterprise system, just as with regular courses:
Degree-Seeking Registration Site

Non-degree students will register through the Office of Online and Continuing Education (OCE):
Non-Degree-Seeking Registration Site
