ECC student services offices open for in-person assistance on two Saturdays in August

Extended business hours will be available at Elgin Community College on campus to support students from 9 am to 3 pm on Saturday, August 14 and August 21. Offices that will be open include academic advising, admissions, registration, financial aid, student accounts, and First Stop. The extended Saturday hours are offered to incoming and returning ECC students who would like in-person assistance before classes start on Monday, August 23.

Placement testing is offered remotely and on campus. Due to ongoing social distancing practices, appointments are limited. Please visit the Placement Tests page to access the remote placement tests.
