• Associate in Applied Science

• Associate in Fine Arts
• Associate in General Studies
• Associate in Science
• Associate in Science and Arts
• Certificate programs in a variety of technical fields

The Associate in Arts, Associate in Fine Arts, Associate in Science, and Associate in Science and Arts programs generally lead to transfer to a four-year university and require at least two years of study. Students can begin most major career fields at IECC before transferring. The Associate in General Studies program is designed for students who wish to explore their individual interests and abilities within an academic structure.

The Associate in Applied Science programs at IECC cover nearly 60 technical areas and are designed to lead to immediate employment after approximately two years of study.

Certificate programs at IECC cover over 35 technical areas and generally require one year of study or less.

A student may be admitted to a degree or certificate program at IECC upon meeting one or more of the following conditions:

• High School Diploma or General Education Development (GED) certificate
• Transfer from a college or university accredited by The Higher Learning Commission (A Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools) or comparable regional accrediting association. The Commission may be contacted at the HLC website at www.ncahigherlearningcommission.org or by phone at 312/263-0456.
• For high school-age students, permission of the secondary school's chief officer or formal notification that the connection with the high school has been severed.
• Eighteen years of age.

Admission to the college does not automatically ensure admittance into all courses or programs of study or ensure eligibility for federal/state financial aid.
