The action ensures no increase on tuition and mandatory fees.

INDIANAPOLIS - The Ivy Tech Community College State Board of Trustees today voted to freeze tuition and mandatory fees for the next two academic years, ensuring no increase for both 2025–26 and 2026–27.

This decision reflects the College’s commitment to ensuring affordability and delivering value for Hoosiers. This decision follows Governor Braun’s request and a unanimous recommendation by the Indiana Commission for Higher Education that all public higher education institutions freeze tuition to support Hoosiers.

THE ACTION BY OUR STATE BOARD REFLECTS OUR COMMITMENT TO PUTTING STUDENTS FIRST.

– Dr. Sue Ellspermann, Ivy Tech President

“Holding tuition flat builds on our years of work to improve affordability, access, and completions for students, and that effort has brought positive outcomes for the state.”

In-state tuition for full-time students taking 12 or more credit hours will remain at $2,577.11 per semester; tuition for part-time students will remain at $178.38 per credit hour. Out-of-state tuition rates will also remain unchanged. Ivy Tech’s innovative Ivy+ Textbooks program, which provides students with all required textbooks and course materials at a low, predictable cost, will continue at $18 per credit hour in 2025–26 and $18.25 in 2026–27.

The tuition freeze is part of Ivy Tech’s broader mission to eliminate financial barriers and deliver high-quality, workforce-aligned education and training to Hoosier students
