Appointment Scheduling

Meeting with an Academic Success Advisor

Academic advising is most effective when students and advisors have time to set goals and work together to plan for success. Therefore, we encourage students to plan ahead and schedule advising appointments, which are typically available in all but the busiest registration times.

There are several student populations that need to meet with faculty or staff advisors outside of this office. These groups include:

  • All student athletes need to meet with the Athletics Advisor, John Bowler. Schedule an appointment with John Bowler.
  • Students who have been admitted to selective Health Professions programs will meet with their program director. 
  • Students who are in certain Career and Technical programs will meet with their program director for Advising. See the "I Know My Major" menu for more information.
  • Non-degree seeking, Early College, and UIUC Concurrent students can work with the Admissions Office for their registration needs. Contact the Admissions office at registration@parkland.edu or by phone at 217/351-2482


Walk-In Wednesday

Can't wait for an appointment? Advisors are typically available for walk-in meetings on Wednesdays between 9 am – 4 pm, though hours and availability are subject to change. Walk-ins are extremely limited from 12–1 pm. Walk-ins are first-come, first-served, and may be subject to wait times. If you are not able to come in-person, please call Academic Advising at 217/351-2219 to inquire about a virtual option.

Upcoming Wednesdays with Reduced Walk-in Availability:

Due to the increased amount of time off over the Summer, individual advisor availability for Walk-in Wednesdays may be limited. If there is a specific advisor you prefer to work with, we recommend contacting us in advance to confirm their availability for walk-ins or scheduling an appointment.

New Parkland Students New to Parkland? Read this first!

If you are a new degree-seeking student at Parkland, you must complete the admissions process before scheduling your first advising appointment. Review the New Student Checklist to make sure you are ready. Two steps on the Checklist that MUST be completed prior to your advising appointment are placement tests and orientation.

  • Placements (or transfer credits) determine the level of classes you are eligible to take for reading, English, and math. Before making an academic advising appointment, please confirm with the Assessment Center that your placements are in place for reading, writing, and math. You can reach the Assessment Center at 217/351-2432 or assessmentcenter@parkland.edu.
  • New student orientation is convenient and quick. It can be completed online in about 45 minutes. At the end of orientation you will be directed to links to schedule your new student advising appointment.

If your placements are complete, please see the information below to assist you in making an advising appointment. You must have placements in place before you can complete advising and registration. Your advising appointment may be canceled if placements are not complete. 

You will need to know your Parkland ID number when you schedule your appointment. Find it on you Parkland acceptance letter, or go to https://selfserv.parkland.edu/Student/Planning and click your username to view your user profile.

Once you are ready to schedule, select your program of study in the I know my major section below.

Know Your Major!
You should always meet with an advisor who specializes in your program of study. If you don't know your program, follow these steps to look it up: 
  1. Log into Parkland Self-Service
  2. Click on Student Planning
  3. Click on tile #1 - Go to My Progress

Your program of study will be listed in the "At a Glance" profile. If you already have an advisor assigned to you, their name will be listed here as well. Use this information to identify which academic area of interest (AOI) your program fits into. Not sure what Area of Interest (AOI) your major or program falls under? Choose a major or academic area that most closely matches your academic goals in order to be paired with the appropriate advisor.

Current Parkland Students Already a Parkland student? Make sure you know who your advisor is.

If you are an active Parkland student enrolled for the current semester, you have a designated academic success advisor assigned to you! Make sure to stay in regular contact with your advisor and meet with them as needed to plan for registration, graduation, and more. To look up your designated advisor follow these steps:

  • Log into Self Service and select Student Planning
  • Click on Plan & Schedule
  • Click on the Advising tab. Your Academic Advisor will be listed. If you do not see an advisor listed, that means you do not have one assigned and should book an appointment from the "I Know My Major" menu. 
    • Entering a note on the Advising tab does not reach an Academic Advisor. If you want to email your Advisor, click the envelope icon.

Once you know who your advisor is, continue to the I Know my Advisor section to select your advisor and schedule your appointment.

UIUC concurrently enrolled students

If you are a full-time UIUC student wanting to take a Parkland class, please follow the Concurrent Enrollment steps. This must be done every semester. Parkland Admissions will take care of the registration through this process as long as the student has met the prerequisites and there are still seats available in the course(s). If you have questions about UIUC concurrent enrollment, please email concurrent@parkland.edu.

Students who are not seeking to earn a degree or certificate at Parkland

If you are not a degree- or certificate-seeking student, it is not required that you meet with an academic advisor. If you need registration assistance, please email registration@parkland.edu. If you are a non degree-seeking student and need academic advising, please review the Areas of Interest above and determine which one best suits your goals/interests in order to make an advising appointment. 

Students who are undecided

If you have gotten this far on our page and have not been able to figure out who is best for you to meet with, please email academicadvising@parkland.edu and let us know what your goals are and we can help determine the best advisor to schedule an appointment.
