Early College and Career Academy (ECCA) – How to Apply for Students
- Ask your high school guidance counselor for the ECCA application materials. If more information is needed, please call the EFE #330/ECCA office at 217/355-1382.
- Fill out the Early College Admissions Application
- Apply as an early college services student.
- If you have already completed or are currently enrolled in a Parkland College course, you will not have to fill out the Parkland online application. In this case, skip to step 3.
- Fill out the ECCA Application
Please note: You will need to obtain a parent/guardian signature, which can be an electronic signature.
- Return the completed ECCA application to your counselor. Counselors will mail completed applications and supporting documentation to the EFE #330/ECCA office:
Education for Employment System #330
Parkland College Room A113
2400 West Bradley Avenue
Champaign, IL 61821
- EFE #330/ECCA will contact your counselor to inform you of your enrollment status. If needed, we will work with you and your counselor to obtain more information.
- We will meet with all admitted students in May to provide necessary information, including summer orientation dates.
For some students, there will be additional steps once you have applied to the program. For instance, students might need to complete placement assessments. We will keep you and your counselor informed of these requirements once we receive your application.
Please call the EFE #330/ECCA office at 217/355-1382 or email Nick Elder nelder@efe.k12.il.us if you have questions about any of this information.
