• Math Diagnostic and Placement Exam (available after May 10); you are required to take this test before you meet with your advisor or register for classes.

We have received your enrollment acknowledgement form; we are very pleased to welcome you as a student of the Illinois Institute of Technology!

Your decision is an occasion for celebration to us. You and your classmates will join students from every U.S. state and over 90 countries. You bring to this community a multitude of talents, years of determination, and limitless creativity and intellect. We look forward to and anticipate the contributions that you will make as a student. Certainly, IIT will be a richer place because of your presence here.

As an IIT student, there are a few essentials to take care of before you start classes. Most of those essentials have been included in a package that we provided to you. For your convenience, here are links to some of those essential materials:

• Immunization Form

• Final Transcript Report
- for First-year students
- for Transfer students

On to the more "fun essentials." In the package we mailed to you, you will receive a couple of window decals and a laundry bag. (Students currently residing outside the U.S. will receive their package upon arrival on campus.) We've also included one of our favorite books, Not for Tourists Guide to Chicago (link on the left). This is the perfect book for everyone—from locals looking to get to know their neighborhood better to those newcomers about to encounter their first Chicago winter. You will have the lowdown on food, transportation and neighborhood life in Chicago. We're even mentioned on pages 55 and 247. However, with the amount of construction and new businesses on and around campus these days, you should look for a reprint soon! Enjoy!

As always, if you have any questions regarding our forms, or any other issue, please contact the Office of Admission at 312.567.3025, 800.449.2329 (toll-free), or admission@iit.edu.

I look forward to seeing you on campus, and welcoming you in person to the IIT community.

Sincerely,

Gerald P. Doyle
