Graduation
Graduation Information
Iowa Central’s graduation is held in May for the entire year’s graduates. We graduate students throughout the year as they meet all their degree requirements. Students should consult with their advisor each semester and run a degree audit to monitor their progress toward graduation. Students who have transfer credit should verify that the credit is on the transcript and degree audit.
Students who intend to graduate in a particular semester are to complete the Graduation Declaration when they enroll in courses for that semester. Graduation Declarations are to be completed with an advisor and submitted to the Student Records office in Fort Dodge or to a center office in Storm Lake or Webster City. There is a $25 fee for graduation that is used to defray the cost of gown, diploma and cover, tassel, etc. Every graduate pays the graduation fee for each degree that he/she receives. Total credits, grade point averages, account balances, and financial aid exit interviews are reviewed before degrees are placed on transcripts and diplomas are mailed.

The campus has a spectacular structure. ICCC has individual learning, as it is a school with a "smaller" number of students, the teachers give you more attention which helps you better understand the subject. The ARC helps students, as there is a reading and writing center inside, as well as tutors for general subjects.
