ICC Financial Aid Facts
$6.7 million in financial aid was awarded in 2007-2008 to 1037 students. 96% of students who completed a FAFSA and enrolled at ICC received payment from some type of financial aid.
ICC awards a higher percentage of gift aid than other Minnesota schools according to a Minnesota Office of Higher Education study for FY07 published in August 2008. ICC students will be able to complete their first one or two years of school with more gift aid and less borrowing than students attending most other schools.
