At Elgin Community College, our commitment to student success goes beyond the classroom. We help individuals achieve their personal, academic, and career goals—whether that means earning a high school equivalency diploma (GED/HiSET), improving English language proficiency through our ESL programs, or gaining the skills needed for college and career readiness.
Students benefit from holistic support services, including academic advising, tutoring, career counseling, and access to community resources that promote success at every stage. At ECC, every learner is valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential on the path to lifelong achievement.
