Its district, Illinois Community College District 514, is a {{convert|2322|mi2|km2|adj=on}} area covering most of Peoria, Tazewell, and Woodford counties and parts of Bureau, Logan, Marshall, Livingston, McLean, Stark, and Mason counties.[1]{{As of|2009|alt=As of fall of 2009}}, ICC had an annual enrollment of 13,049 students. 91.5% of students were in-district residents.[1] AcademicsICC offers 69 transferable Associate in Arts and Sciences programs, 84 Associate in Applied Science programs, and 104 occupational Certificate programs. More than 3,300 classes are offered each semester, and the average class size is 14.[1] Its educational accreditation is from the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools,[1] which accredits most of the colleges and universities in the western United States. CampusesICC has three campuses:

The library faculty at the East Peoria campus run an associate degree program for future library technical assistants. This program has an agreement with the University of Maine at Augusta that makes it possible to quickly complete both the two-year degree and an online baccalaureate degree for those wishing to get a senior posting or go on to graduate school. ICC has agreements with the OSF and Methodist Colleges of Nursing and with Illinois State University's Mennonite College of Nursing where students can earn an associate and then a bachelor's in nursing; it also has an LPN-RN program, an LPN program, a medical technician program, and a CNA program.
