Working Smarter Together

About Us
Independent College Enterprise is a consortium of higher education institutions working together to maximize the resources and value of enterprise systems on their campus. We are currently comprised of eight private colleges in West Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Alabama.
Significant Cost Savings
The total annual membership cost is about half of what an individual school would pay for the same software, hardware, and support on its own.
Shared Technical Expertise
Our collaborative approach allows members to share technical staff expertise as an extension of their own IT department, offering support and consulting with each institution's dedicated IT staff.
Business Analysts = Added Value
Membership supports business continuity and reduces Ellucian services costs at $250 per hour. Services include training and the encouragement and support of adding new modules and features.

IT'S OUR MISSION
The mission of the Independent College Enterprise is to improve efficiency and effectiveness for member schools through sharing information technology resources and supporting shared operational functions.



Member Profiles
The University of Charleston offers a unique opportunity for those who want an exceptional education in a smaller, private setting. UC is located in the capital city of Charleston, West Virginia.
