Restricted Course Approval Information

AHS 330, 393, and 402 are restricted to Applied Health Science students. IHS majors can take these courses as long as they are declared in the major and have met all prerequisites. Students can request approval during registration for their upcoming semester by submitting the Integrated Health Studies – AHS Course Approval Form. The form opens as soon as registration begins for the following term and remains open until Friday of Week 2 of the Fall/Spring terms.

Course overrides will be entered in the order that they are received. Should a course fill before you are able to register, an override will still be entered to allow you to register should a spot open up.

Submit one form for each class you are requesting approval.

BIOS 250 – Microbiology and Application to Health is restricted to Pre-Nursing students, Pre-Pharmacy and/or Bachelor of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences (BSPS), and Integrated Health Studies students. All students who wish to take BIOS 250 will need to sign-up via the waitlist form. The waitlist can be found on the Biological Sciences Advising website.

 

IHS students may request approval to register for 300-400 level BIOS courses required for the IHS major by emailing the IHS advisor, Trisha Garcia – tmgarcia@uic.edu, from their UIC email account with the following information:
