See the HBCU website for participating schools and more details.

WUE is a program in which students in Western states may enroll in participating two and four-year public college programs at a reduced tuition; up to 150% of the institution's regular resident tuition which is considerably less than nonresident tuition. See the WUE website for details.

IVC students have the unique opportunity to attend California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) campuses while they are still at IVC. This program is especially useful for community college students who might want to transfer to a local CSU or UC campus, allowing them to take a course at that level each semester at a very low cost. See the Admissions website for details and an application.​​
