ICC news

All dual credit students who have applied for financial aid at ICC have received letters “Terminating” their financial aid. This is because we have all dual credit students use “Undeclared Major” on their ICC application.

They need to only change their major. They should come to one of the ICC campuses to do this. They may also e-mail Brandy Moore (brandy.moore@icc.edu) asking that their major be changed from Undeclared to their intended program of study. This will NOT affect their financial aid for next year once they change their major.

If you have questions concerning Financial Aid at ICC, you may call Beth McClain (694-5323 or bmcclain@icc.edu).
