Free Ivy Tech Courses for Students
Ivy Tech Community College offers a unique program during the summer that allows students in grades 9 through 12 to take college courses for free. They don't even have to pay for textbooks. The credits they earn can transfer to any Indiana 4-year public university, and they can work toward a certificate or degree at Ivy Tech. Most notably, this can help them save money in college and possibly allow them to graduate sooner.
