OGLESBY – The Illinois Valley Community College heard a presentation on student demographics by Vice President for Student Services Mark Grzybowski last week. IVCC continues to do a good job recruiting recent high school graduates, Grzybowski said. Last fall, 18-year-olds accounted for 23.2 percent of total enrollment, up 2 percent from 2018.
“This indicates the positive impact we are making with our traditional high school age students,” Grzybowski said.
IVCC President Jerry Corcoran agreed saying, “Our outreach to high school students is paying off. Thanks again to the board for supporting a tuition freeze for another year and allowing the administration to continue exploring incentive-retention programs with resources from HEERF (Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund).
“I urge high school students and their parents to take advantage of these opportunities while they can,” Corcoran added.
