Whos eligible for services?
All full-time undergraduate and graduate students currently enrolled at Eastern Illinois University are eligible to receive services at the Counseling Center. Services are free, voluntary, and confidential. How Do I Make an Appointment? Appointments may be arranged by calling 581-3413 or by dropping by the first floor of the Human Services Building. Our receptionists will place you on an appropriate staff member’s schedule. Appointments can normally be scheduled within a few days from your request but may take a few weeks during the Center’s busiest times. Schedule adjustments are made, however, in emergency situations. What Else Do I Need to Know? With the exception of the Group Counseling Program, the Counseling Center’s appointments are set up on an hourly basis. Appointments are normally scheduled between 9 a.m. – 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. Students often meet with their counselors on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis. How Do I Get Started?
