Amazing professors and a quality administration. It made my time here fly by. Not to mention how much they help their students succeed. Highly recommend.

It is still quiet- for now. Very good educational standards. Great & friendly staff. There is one dean in particular who is spineless, but the rest of the administration is top notch.

This school should receive a F for failure to accommodate dyslexic students. It is unbelievable that an educational institution has absolutely no understanding of what it takes for students with learning disabilities. Those disabilities could be any type of dyslexias such as dysphonetic, dysgraphic, or dyseidetic. Dyslexia is typically co-morbid which can include but not limited to ADHD/ADD, CAPD, memory disorder, oculomotor, etc.I am a Dyslexic Specialist and a mother of a dyslexic and I researched and toured Illinois colleges and found that most colleges will do what it takes for a student to succeed.A mother of one of my previous students recently reached out and shared her experience with Illinois Central College and I was mortified to hear that after 2 years of completing an associate level and entering into her PTA program they will absolutely not give her some needed accommodations. This student has various types of dyslexia as well as executive function weakness and CAPD and the mom was advocating for word banks during test taking due to word retrieval difficulties and the schools response was, no, there arent any word banks in the real world. You have got to be kidding me. Have you ever heard of Google. We have a word banks at our fingertips at all times. In the real world we learn through experiences and repetition. Standardized testing is archaic. This is no thoughtfulness to give Standardized tests. It is not representative of who we are as a whole person.Please send a message to this college that excluding 20% of our dyslexic population is unacceptable.

Disc golf course is challenging with 18 holes. Deep in the woods, not too awful weedy. My favorite course.

They have amazing Photography and Graphic Design programs that are their best kept secret, with new high-end studios and mac computers. I took ALL photo and design classes I could while I was there. I have transferred to a four year school now, but I miss ICC so much! The teachers at ICC were the nicest people, unlike at my current university... I wish ICC offered Bachelors.

IT Dept has some really good people that care about students. The IT Dept is great.The enrollment office, admissions office, and other academic support staff often couldnt care less and are just mostly downright rude and/or incapable. One gets the feeling that the enrollment office is tired of dealing with college-age youth... but then if thats the case, and if they cans support the mission, they need to leave their line of work.If you need to get an associates in technology field, though, the curriculum is good to go and the professors willing to help motivated students.

This school is awful. Most of the instructors are not supportive, they are short, they dont help, and its like they try to set you up for failure. And if you sign up for online classes, the instructors barely help and/or dont even respond to emails. Most of the staff here acts like youre an inconvenience. They are extremely rude. I dont know how this school is still running. Staff, instructors, the school as a whole is a terrible example of an organization. This place is a f#@%ing disaster.

This school is very nice.good-> they have free tutors to help you, I passed chemistry and english because of them->awesome library (but the students can be trashy and noisy, ITS A LIBRARY FOR GOODNESS SAKE)->if you want a nice experience on your learning, ask peers about good professors, look at Rate My Professor and read EVERYTHING no kidding because most of them are true, but take it with a grain of salt->VERY cold campus, we arent penguins please take note of thatneeds improvement-> their organizations, the school is just too boring to me, where are the organizations at?!-> some rooms kinda smell like old carpet, its an odd smell-> the cafeteria is MAD expensive, I never buy stuff there, they serve good wholesome foods but, come on, its general knowledge that college students are broke, why offer a meal for 4 bucks

One of ICCs biggest downfalls would have to be their financial aid staff! They are very inconsiderate. The 5 times Ive been in the office I have yet to see anyone there with a welcoming, Im ready to assist you attitude. You can complete everything correct on your part and they will still screw you over at the end and give you attitude as if its not their problem. Everyone there should be retrained with an emphasis on EMPATHY! The teachers are satisfactory. Not great, not well, just satisfactory.

Worst community college Ive ever been to in my life. They hardly seem to care about students as much as other schools. No free gym. No free bus. No amenities close by. Everything is over-priced. The general atmosphere is also pretty ghetto. Not a nice college at all.

Great school all around but what lowers it so much is theyre financial aid staff. They are hands down the most uncaring idiotic and incompetent group of workers I have ever seen. They dont answer your questions helpfully they are so smug. I wasnt able to get a loan because they lost my high school transcript so my account cant get awarded. Then they tell me they have it but dont take it off my to do list. I dont know if they dont care about theur jobs or theyre just stupid but if you need financial aid either go elsewhere or make sure you you let them know you will not be dealing with their incompetence.
