OGLESBY- Students attending Illinois Valley Community College this spring semester could receive payments made possible by the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund. The IVCC board members learned Thursday that students enrolled in 12 or more credit hours may receive $1,000. Those taking 6-to-11 hours could receive $500. Payments will be made to students enrolled as of April 7.
In addition, high school students enrolled in IVCC dual credit/dual enrollment courses this spring will have all tuition and the registration fee waived. Students who complete a Career and Technical Education dual credit course will qualify for a tuition waiver for three credit hours this summer or next fall.
With the exception of IVCC employees and high school students, any student who enrolls this spring will also receive a $100 IVCC bookstore gift card to use on books and supplies.
“We recognize the importance of supporting students throughout the pandemic and are committed to helping them achieve their academic and career goals,” said Vice President for Student Services Mark Grzybowski.
