Adding a Class
- You must be admitted to the college and completed the necessary steps for first time students.
- Determine that all of the required course prerequisites have been met and seats are available.
- Log into myLCC and click on the Banner link to drop or add course(s).
Note: Prerequisite overrides are managed within each division/department.
Online registration is available until 10 minutes prior to when a face-to-face class begins (lecture, lab).
Online registration for online, online/hybrid and classes that state TBA as one of the meeting times is available until midnight (12:00 a.m.) the date the teaching period begins.
Do you want to register for a section that has already started?
Once online registration ends for a course, follow the Late Registration and Schedule Adjustment Guidelines below.
Late Registration and Schedule Adjustment Guidelines
Late registration at Lansing Community College is not allowed. Schedule adjustments are allowed within the first week of each part of term. Special circumstance may be considered after consultation with the instructor and the Academic Dean.
A schedule adjustment is defined as adding a course by a student with registration
activity for the current semester. Adding an additional course, switching sections,
and being reinstated into a section in which the student was previously registered
in are all examples of schedule adjustments.
Late registration is defined as adding a course by a student that has not had any
registration activity for the current semester.
What is registration activity?
Examples of registration activity include:
• A student is registered in a section for the current semester
• A student dropped a section during the current semester
• A student was on a waitlist for a section during the current semester
Procedure for Schedule Adjustments and Late Registration Requests
1. The student must complete the drop/add form found on the Registrar's Forms Page and obtain the required approval/signatures based on the following scenarios.
a. Schedule adjustments during the first week of the part of term only require approval from the instructor.
b. Schedule adjustments during the second week of each part of term requires approval from both the instructor and the Academic Dean.
c. Late registration requests must obtain approval from both the instructor and the Academic Dean once the section begins.
2. The student submits the completed form to any of the division or department offices, the StarZone (located in the Gannon Building), or email the Registrar's Office at registrar@lcc.edu for a final approval and processing.
a. Please note that some requests may be denied after obtaining approvals from the instructor and/or the Academic Dean due to seat availability, registration holds, or prerequisite errors. Students will be notified either in person or via LCC email if a request is denied.
3. The student will be notified either in person or via LCC email once request is approved and processed.
Dropping a Class
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 Website.
Students should drop online until the deadline for each teaching period. Refunds are available based on the Refund Schedule.
Please note: Dropping a class may require you to pay money back to the College if you have received financial aid. Contact the Financial Aid office before dropping!

Paying for Classes
Pay your bill to avoid having your classes dropped. Access your LCC Student E-mail Account for important updates If you are unfamiliar with your LCC student e-mail account, visit the Student Email Assistance page for a step-by-step guide to getting started.
Because of federal regulations, Financial Aid can only pay for classes that are in your major or program of study. It is important to keep your major updated and only register for courses needed so you don’t have to pay for classes without financial aid.
To update your major or program of study, access the Change of Program Request form.
