http://www.lcc.edu/registration and follow the instructions.
Before registering, see the
Counseling
and Advising section for important information.
Students needing assistance in registering for a TUID (User ID) or
accessing their account on the web should contact the LCC Help Desk
at (517) 483-5221 or at
lcc1@lcc.edu.
Courses Needing
Pre-approval
Students enrolling in classes requiring course approval must obtain
permission from the instructor and/or department prior to
registration. Courses requiring approval are noted in the course
listings.
Prerequisites
Course prerequisites could include any one or more of the following:
completion of other courses with a minimum grade; reading, writing,
and/or math levels; other placement tests and/or requirements;
curriculum restrictions; co-requisite courses (which must be taken
with the course); and/or department approvals. Be sure to check the
requirements for the course before registration. Students can find
out if they meet required skill levels by taking placement tests.
Students who do not meet the indicated course prerequisites will be
unable to complete the registration process. Students who have
met the requirements for the course through other methods such as
transfer courses and/or experience should contact the department
offering the course or submit a waiver request form. For a copy of
this form or more information about waiver guidelines, visit
www.lcc.edu/advising/waivers.htm. Waiver requests require one to
three business days to process. See the
Course
Descriptions for department office locations and phone numbers.
Registration Holds
Registration holds will prevent students from registering. Holds may
be placed on student enrollment for reasons such as outstanding
financial obligations or overdue library items. Students should
satisfy their holds prior to registration in order to save time
during the busy enrollment periods.
Registrar/Student Records
To get information on transcripts, registration, graduation or
residency call Enrollment Services, (517) 483-1200, or stop by Room
203, Gannon Building.
For more information on Admissions, Registration and Student Records,
visit:
www.lcc.edu/enrollment.
Auditing Classes
A class taken as an audit results in no grade or credit for the
student and is usually taken for purposes of self-improvement or
general interest. Students wishing to audit must meet all
prerequisites required for the course and indicate their intention
to audit at the time they register for the course. Audited courses
cannot be applied toward a degree or certificate and cannot be used
to meet prerequisites.
The college allows students to change from
credit to audit or from audit to credit by the end of the second
week of classes (and other equivalent dates as specified for
variable length courses). Students electing to change from audit to
credit are responsible for having course work up-to-date at the time
the change is made. Changes from credit to audit through the end of
the second week for 16-week courses (and other equivalent dates as
specified for variable length courses) do not require instructor
approval. Students should be aware that exercising this option
may have an impact on their financial assistance or on student
employment at the college. Any student balance due created by a
change in credit or audit status must be paid by the student.
Changes in audit or credit status must be requested by the student
through Enrollment Services/Office of the Registrar.
Student
Identification Cards (StarCard)
New students enrolling at LCC should have their identification
pictures taken for their StarCard at the time of registration. The
StarCard serves as a student photo ID card, parking card, LCC
Library card, and computer lab access card.
How do students
get a StarCard?
Students must be currently registered for classes before receiving a
StarCard. Please bring a picture ID (driver’s license, passport) for
identification verification, a copy of your class schedule, along
with your student number and Technology User ID (TUID) to assist in
speedy issuing of your StarCard.
The fee to replace a lost, stolen, or
damaged StarCard is $15. StarCards used for paid parking, which have
insufficient funds, will be confiscated. There is a re-issue fee for
confiscated StarCards.
Parking (StarCard)
Parking and ID Services provides assistance with parking options.
Simply stop by Parking and ID Services in the Gannon Building, Room
215.
For more information, call (517) 483-1798 Monday through Thursday,
7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., or visit:
www.lcc.edu/parking.

State and Federal Law Protects the Privacy of Your Records
Providing your Social Security number
is voluntary. It will be used for keeping records, doing
research, and reporting purposes. If you choose not to use your
Social Security number, you will not be denied admission to the
college. However, you may be denied certain services such as
access to some financial assistance and tax reporting. The
number may be used for the following:
-
Identify and maintain your student
records at LCC
-
Determine or verify eligibility
for services, certify attendance, and report student status
-
Maintain LCC databases and/or
other financial aid programs
-
Tax reporting purposes
You will be assigned an ID number
which you will need to access LCC records about you or to obtain
services. Please read the statement under
student identification
cards, which describes how your card will be used.
LCC complies with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
of 1974 which regulates the release of Social Security numbers
and other personally identifiable information from educational
records.

Selective Drop for
Nonpayment
Students are responsible for dropping all courses they are not
planning to attend, and are responsible for payment of classes in
which they are enrolled. Students should not assume they
will be dropped from a class or classes for nonpayment, as there are
many factors which will determine whether and when a student is
dropped for nonpayment. It is the student’s responsibility to verify
his or her enrollment status. To verify enrollment status, students
can view their schedule on the LCC web site (www.lcc.edu).
Proof of Residency
Students are notified of their residency status at the time of
admission. Lansing Community College verifies the residency status
of each student each semester by mailings sent to the current
residence the student has on file with the college. Residency status
may be adjusted for those students whose mail is returned to the
college. Students petitioning for a change of status will be
required to provide proof of residency.
Residency is based on where a student has
resided for the six months immediately prior to the first day of the
semester of enrollment. One or more of the following documents may
be required as proof of residency:
-
Current Michigan driver’s license or State
identification card issued not less than six months prior to the
first day of the semester in which residency is being sought
-
Paid current year property tax receipt
indicating LCC assessment. The receipt must include the name of the
student (or parent if the student is a dependent as defined by IRS
code) as the property owner.
-
Current rental or lease agreement indicating
six months residency immediately prior to the first day of the
semester in which residency is sought. The lease or rental agreement
must include: the date the lease or rental agreement was executed,
the beginning and ending dates of the current lease or rental
agreement, the landlord or property manager’s name, address and
phone number; and the student’s (or parent of dependent student)
name and signature.
-
Utility bills with the student’s (or parent
of dependent student) name and address for each of the six months
prior to the first day of the semester
If a change of residency status is approved
by the published deadline date each semester and the student is
eligible for a refund, the difference between the previous residency
status and the new residency status shall be refunded. No Petition
for Change of Residency Forms will be considered after the published
deadline date.
It is a violation of College policy to
present false documentation. Registrar staff may verify the validity
of the documents presented as proof of residency. Lansing Community
College reserves the right to make the final decision on residency
eligibility.
Please contact Enrollment Services at (517)
483-1200 for further assistance.
