Carl Sandburg College is pleased to participate in the Illinois Virtual Campus. The IVC is a one-stop shop to assist in locating distance education throughout the state of Illinois. Students can search this virtual catalog for transfer, occupational, and continuing educational courses and/or programs on the IVC web-site.
Enrollment Process:
To enroll in a course listed on the IVC, the student should contact the institution where the course in question is being offered. The student will need to apply, register, and pay tuition and fees at the college where the course will be taught. If the student is taking a course for certificate/degree requirements, he/she must officially request that the transcript be sent to the institution where the certificate/degree will be conferred. Institutional contacts can be located on the IVC course web-pages.
