Initial Assessments
- We recommend coming in during our Same Day Access hours for an Initial Assessment.
- Scheduled initial assessments can also be booked online. Students must be in the state of Illinois for all clinical appointments, so please make sure to schedule an Initial Assessment at a time when you will be in Illinois.
- New appointments open daily or whenever cancellations or rescheduling occur, so we encourage students to check for appointments on a daily basis.
After-Hours Help
- The after-hour emergency service number is 847-491-2151. Answering service personnel will contact a CAPS counselor who will speak with you on the phone. A counselor is available via phone 24 hours a day, year-round.
