Clinical Experiences Fee
Applies to students beginning Professional Education Sequence prior to Fall 2022
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign educator preparation programs have Board of Trustee approval to assess a one-time clinical experience fee, currently $790, prior to a students first clinical experience in the K-12 schools. This fee is assessed via a “course” that shows on a students registration for the term assessed as EDPR 203. This EDPR 203 “course” does not appear on transcripts or carry any course credit, but is a means by which students are assessed the program required clinical fee for K-12 supervision.
This fee is assessed when you begin your professional education sequence; fall of junior year for Early Childhood, Elementary and Middle Grades majors, spring of sophomore year for Special Education majors and spring of junior year for Secondary Education minors.
