Ivy Tech Community College is a comprehensive community college that offers convenient class schedules, transfer degrees, online course options, and workforce development for traditional and non-traditional students. The Bloomington campus recently exceeded enrollment of 5,000 students and was named by Community College Week as the third-fastest growing community college in the nation for its size.

The Bloomington campus now offers more than 400 credit hours that transfer to Indiana University for students who choose to pursue a bachelor's degree, as well as courses and associate degrees that transfer to other four-year institutions. The campus has grown into additional classroom space at Liberty Drive on the west side of Bloomington, and into the new Indiana Center for the Life Sciences, which is being constructed on the main campus grounds.
