Advising PIN (required for registration each semester)
Each academic unit issues the Advising PIN required for registration in the first semester of student enrollment at Illinois Tech.
For graduate students in full-time programs:
- New master of science and Ph.D. students receive their PIN number from the director of graduate studies鈥擜ssociate Professor Igor Cialenco, who can be reached at cialenco@iit.edu. He serves as these students' first academic adviser. The professional masters students can obtain their PIN number from the program directors or academic advisers.
- For continuing semesters, if not on probation, students can find their Advising PIN number in their account. Information to find your Advising PIN can be found at this .
Graduate Academic Advising
Graduate students are required to complete an advising session with a graduate academic (or Accelerated Master's Program) adviser. The GP Graduate Advising Hold becomes active before the next semester of registration opens for:
- Accelerated master鈥檚 students in the first semester of graduate enrollment
- Traditional masters students at nine earned or enrolled credits
- Doctoral students at 18 earned or enrolled credits
The hold prevents registration before the following semester, until lifted by the adviser, and a mandatory advising session is required for the student to clear the registration hold.
One-on-one advising sessions can be arranged by email with the student鈥檚 adviser based on the student鈥檚 need.
Students in part-time professional programs have the Program Director as their adviser.
