Opportunity at Illinois College is matched by a strong network of support. In 2025, IC was awarded a $272,364 federal TRIO Student Support Services grant to expand resources for first-generation students, students from low-income backgrounds and students with disabilities.
Through personalized advising, tutoring, financial guidance and graduate school preparation, TRIO Student Support Services helps students navigate challenges and stay on track from their first semester through graduation. The program ensures that students are never navigating college alone. For families evaluating the value of an IC education, TRIO represents a tangible commitment to student success with outcomes that extend beyond the classroom.
