SIU Extended Campus looks forward to partnering with more departments and welcoming new students to the Saluki family, both online and at locations across the U.S.
For clarity and ease of understanding, here’s how the process works at Southern Illinois University Carbondale:
- Initiation: The program begins by preparing and sending a "Permission to Investigate" memo* from the program, routed through the Dean, to the Executive Director of SIU Extended Campus (SEC).
- Consultation for Approval: SEC will then consult with the Associate Provost for Academic Programs (APAP) to determine if regional approval from the Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE) is necessary.
- Notification of Approval: Upon completion of consultations, SEC will inform the program whether it has been approved to proceed with the investigation.

*All memos should be placed on departmental letterhead and signed before being submitted along with corresponding documents via email to ec.compliance@siu.edu.
In addition to the above approval process, there are many behind the scenes steps that need to take place in order to get a new site/program up and running. Once the Affected Officers memo goes out it will trigger many of these processes across the campus. The program should also expect to work closely with SEC Compliance on various pieces such as memoranda of understanding/agreement, facility use license agreements, state licensure approval (for out-of-state), state approving agency approval, and more.
