Welcome to my online appointment system! I advise students that are declared in the following majors/sequences and that have completed at least 24 credit hours:

  • Journalism students

  • Communication Studies students (Interpersonal Communication and Political Communication sequences only)

Advising Appointments:

To schedule an appointment, select a day and time below and enter the requested information. You have the option to schedule in-person or virtual (Zoom) appointments and will be asked to select a meeting preference when you schedule (either “in-person appointment” or “virtual appointment”). If you need to change your meeting preference after scheduling, please email me directly at kmsies@ilstu.edu. NOTE: Advising appointments on MONDAYS and FRIDAYS will automatically be virtual.

In-Person Advising Appointment Protocols:

In-person advising appointments will be held in my office, Fell Hall 438A. For all in-person appointments, the following protocols will be in place:

  • Illness & Symptoms: If you are sick or displaying any symptoms (such as fever, cough, sore throat, etc.), you should not come to your advisor’s office. If you arrive to your appointment and are displaying symptoms, your advisor reserves the right to cancel.

Virtual Advising Appointment Protocols:

Virtual advising appointments will take place via Zoom. Prior to your scheduled appointment, I will send you an email with a link to their Zoom virtual meeting space. For all virtual appointments, students must follow the protocols for appropriate Zoom etiquette as posted on our website.

Please visit the Communication Undergraduate Advising website for more information regarding appointment types and protocols for each.

Please Note: I only advise declared majors that have completed at least 24 credit hours. If you do not fall into these categories, your appointment may be cancelled, and you will be asked to reschedule your appointment with the appropriate advisor.

Freshmen Students: All freshmen students (23 or fewer credit hours completed) are advised through University College. Please call 309-438-7604 to set up an appointment with your University College advisor.
