The Urbana–Champaign site stopped accepting new students after Fall 2016 to make room for the newly established Carle Illinois College of Medicine.

The new school, located on Harrison and Honore streets, was named the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Chicago (commonly referred to as P&S).

[citation needed] At the West Side Free Dispensary, located on the first floor of the medical school, students in small groups could observe pathological cases and their treatment.

The dispensary also furnished material for college clinics in medicine, surgery, gynecology, obstetrics, ophthalmology, neurology and pediatrics.

Their purpose was to provide access to care for all citizens in the state and increase opportunities for Illinois residents to attend medical school.

[citation needed] In 1902, National Medical Honor Society Alpha Omega Alpha (ΑΩΑ) was founded at the Chicago College of Physician and Surgeons (later named the College of Medicine of the University of Illinois) by medical student William Root and colleagues.

Rockford teaches first through fourth year medical students and offers a family medicine residency program.
