ILEA Equity Plan | Elgin Community College (ECC)

There are wide and persistent gaps in college completion rates in Illinois, especially among students of color and low-income students. After an in-depth analysis of our institutional data, Elgin Community College (“ECC” or “the College” or “we” or “our”) has developed an Equity Plan containing annual growth targets for which progress updates will be shared publicly over the next five years. Our Equity Plan reflects the unique characteristics of our institution. For example, ECC is designated as a Hispanic Serving Institution by the US Department of Education, with just over 42% of the students identifying as Latinx or Hispanic. Also, the district served by ECC is widely diverse in terms of income and educational attainment. We will identify the obstacles students face and develop programs and policies that break down unnecessary college graduation barriers. Along with our fellow colleges, in the Partnership for College Completion organization, with this Illinois Equity in Attainment (“ILEA”) plan, we pledge to close the completion gaps by 2025.
