On behalf of our students, faculty, and staff, I wanted to take this opportunity to welcome you to Irvine Valley College. Whether you are considering coming here as a first-time college student, a returning student looking for new skills, or as someone interested in lifelong learning classes, I encourage you to get to know us and discover all that IVC has to offer.
Drawing more than 22,000 students annually, IVC is dedicated to offering academic excellence paired with a critical awareness of equity issues. IVC is #1 in transfers among all community colleges in California. IVC also has among the highest rates of student transfers in the state, including to prestigious universities like Brown, Columbia, Caltech, Harvey Mudd, Penn, and USC.
Our college also prides itself on its wide range of student support services and financial aid opportunities, to ensure all students can thrive regardless of their goals.
