FORT PIERCE — Fall semester registration at Indian River State College (IRSC) is now open. Students are encouraged to register early to ensure they are ready when classes begin on Aug. 16. A comprehensive college, IRSC offers more than 100 educational options that range from career training programs (developing skills in a year or less) to four-year Bachelor’s Degree programs.

Five IRSC campuses are within a 20-minute drive for most Treasure Coast and Okeechobee County residents. Students also may choose from hundreds of online courses. Students are encouraged to view the Fall 2023 Main Session course schedule here prior to registration.

Financial aid is available to those who qualify — 91 percent of IRSC students graduate without debt! The College awarded more than $40 million in financial aid last year alone.
