In-person academic counseling is available through a blend of scheduled appointments and on a first come, first serve basis for walk-ins.  We also offer phone and Zoom meeting options! Appointments are not available during peak times.

We are currently experiencing a high volume of traffic and do not have any appointments available. We offer walk-ins or call-backs on a first-come, first-served basis from Monday to Friday. 

Please call before making a special trip to campus to verify counselor availability as it is subject to change during peak times.

You can also contact the Ottawa Center for availability to see a counselor there. Call 815-224-0800.
