Registration Assistance

The Counseling Center is now operating on an appointment-based model.  Students should meet with counselors to plan classes, discuss changing majors, or review their transfer path. Limited walk-in visits and callbacks will be available on a first come, first-serve basis to students seeking general information, graduation checks, or minor schedule changes. 

To register for classes, reach us one of the following ways:

  1. Call: 815-224-0360 (Main Campus - Oglesby)
  2. For current students or students who have received acceptance letters, you can request an appointment by viewing the Counseling Card on myIVCC.
  3. Email: Counseling@ivcc.edu (include your availability)
  4. Visit: In-person in CTC-202*

Spring registration will open Wednesday, October 28th at 9am. Students should see a counselor before registration opens to plan their classes.
