Experience ICC Scholarships

This scholarship is designed for students who plan to take summer classes at ICC...


The Foundation Board of Directors has once again voted to offer the Experience ICC Scholarship to those students looking to enroll in summer courses.  As you may recall, this scholarship is awarded to individuals who have never taken a course at ICC (students who previously completed dual credit or GED courses are eligible to partake).

News Release: February 2, 2015 ILLINOIS CENTRAL COLLEGE OFFERS SUMMER-ONLY SCHOLARSHIPS TO FIRST-TIME ICC STUDENTS

Illinois Central College again will offer its “Experience ICC” scholarships to anyone within the college’s district who has never taken a class at the college. The scholarships are available on a first-come, first-served basis and cover half of the cost of summer tuition, with a maximum of six credit hours and/or $375. Students may enroll full- or part-time in any major but must have a 2.0 or better high school or college grade point average. If it has been more than four years since the student has attended high school or college, the GPA requirement is waived.

To be eligible for the scholarships, students must first apply to ICC online at http://icc.edu/admissions/enrollment/apply-now/

Applicants will receive an ICC student identification number by email within 48 hours. This identification number will be needed when applying for the “Experience ICC” scholarships. The scholarships are not based on need, and a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is not required for eligibility. Students who have completed dual credit classes or their GED at ICC are still eligible.

Those interested should contact Ellen Tabor in the Financial Aid Office, Room L209, on the East Peoria Campus or email her atetabor@icc.edu for an application.

If you have specific questions regarding eligibility, please contact Stephanie Holmes at (309) 694-8420, or emailStephanie.Holmes@icc.edu.
