  • I took classes at ICC less than 5 years ago

    Your previous placement test scores are valid for 5 years.

    Please send documentation (transcripts or current placement test scores from another institution etc) officially to the Admissions Office at Isothermal Community College, PO Box 804, Spindale NC, 28160.
