Latest News: Senate Passes Bill Removing Age Restriction at U of I

SPRINGFIELD, IL – Legislation sponsored by State Senator Michael Frerichs (D-Champaign) may soon allow students of any age to attend the University of Illinois.

Senate Bill 263 removes the University’s requirement that students must be at least 15-years old to enroll at the school. Changing this policy would place the University’s admissions guidelines in line with that of other 4-year universities in Illinois.

The bill passed out of the Senate unanimously and now moves to the House of Representatives for further consideration.
