Aggressive marketing of the community colleges begins in the next few weeks. This report clearly shows how important community colleges can be in Indiana s future, the commissioner of higher education said. The convenience and affordability of these institutions will attract workers who want to keep up with changing technology, and these campuses will also provide a feeder system for our more traditional institutions. The Community College of Indiana was established through a partnership between Vincennes University and Ivy Tech State College. Students can earn associate of arts and associate of science degrees.
Tuition is lower than in four-year programs.
The first four community colleges are on Ivy Tech campuses in Indianapolis, Gary, Evansville and Lafayette.
