Ivy Tech Community College is a public community college system in the U.S. state of Indiana. It is the state's public community college system and it has more than 41 locations. It is the nation's largest singly-accredited statewide community college system, serving more than 200,000 students annually on campus and online and 90,000+ dual credit students in high schools throughout Indiana. It is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.

With an average net price of just $6,544/year and median graduation debt of only $5,835, this is one of the most affordable higher education options in Indiana — making it a smart starting point for students watching their budget. The sheer scale (200,000+ students statewide, 41+ locations) means strong program variety and flexible scheduling, including online options. The honest concern: median earnings of $33,000 a decade after enrollment are modest, so think carefully about which specific program you're entering and whether it has a clear pathway to higher-paying work.
