Iowa College Access Network (ICAN)

Iowa College Access Network (ICAN) provides college and financial aid resources and services to Iowan students and their families. I want to be sure that you are aware of their FREE resources and supports and invite you to utilize them.

I have partnered with ICAN for years now, organizing countless ICAN community presentations and I have proudly served on ICAN's Advisory Council for the last two years. I continue to be impressed by their unwavering dedication towards educating students and families on making sound decisions when it comes to college selection and financial aid. 

Sean Hartnett is one of ICAN's Student Success Advisor, covering the Northwest Iowa region. His offices are located on the campus of Western Iowa Community College in Sioux City and Northwestern College located in Orange City. Appointments can cover the following topics listed below.

    Career Exploration (9,10,11,12)
    Career Assessment (9,10,11,12)
    College Exploration (9,10,11,12)
