Ivy Tech invites 11th and 12th grade families to join them on September 24th at 5:30 in the Media Center to learn more about the Indiana College Core. According to Ivy Tech, "The Indiana College Core is a long-term certificate, known as a technical certificate, offered by Ivy Tech consisting of a block of 30 credit hours toward general education requirements. The credits are guaranteed to transfer to another Indiana public college or university (that's a guarantee backed by the Indiana legislature!). Thirty credit hours are equivalent to your first year in college. So if you're taking Ivy Tech classes in high school through Dual Credit or Dual Enrollment (see the difference), and you complete the Indiana College Core, you could earn your first year of college credits before you graduate!
The Core is offered at more than 100 Indiana high schools and 29 Ivy Tech locations throughout the state as well as 100% online. Full-time students typically take two semesters, or one year to complete the Core."
