| Federal Pell grants | 66% | $6,228 |
| State/local grants | 37% | $709 |

Because grants and scholarships do not have to be repaid, they are the most sought-after type of financial aid. At ICC, approximately 87% of the undergraduate population received grant aid that averaged $4,712 (for some 4293 students).
| Award | % of Undergrads Receiving | Average Amount |

How much a family pays depends heavily on income, because most aid is awarded on the basis of financial need.
| Family Income | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| $0 – $48,000 | $4,002 |
| $30,001 – $75,000 | $5,368 |
| Over $75,000 | $8,116 |
The numbers above are post-aid net prices, so they already account for grants and scholarships.
The net price strips out grant and scholarship aid from the sticker price to show roughly what families really pay.
| Cohort | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| On-campus title-IV students | $4,616 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $5,034 |
