Application Process

Follow the steps below to apply to Lansing Community College’s (LCC) Neurodiagnostic Technology (NDXT) Program. Admission into the college does not guarantee entrance into a Selective Admissions program. For questions about the application process, email selective_admissions@star.lcc.edu.

  1. Apply to LCC

  2. *Transfer Students

    Have ALL of your previous colleges send official transcripts directly to LCC’s Registrar’s Office by May 15th. Courses must transfer into LCC as the exact class to satisfy an admission requirement.

    1. Find out where to send your transcripts and how your classes will transfer to LCC using our Equivalencies webpage. Students submitting non-US transcripts for credit transfer evaluation should request a credit evaluation report to be sent directly to LCC Registrar’s Office. The report must be prepared by a member organization of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services, Inc. (NACES). Contact one of the NACES member organizations listed at naces.org to obtain a credit evaluation request form.
    2. ***Your transfer school’s grading system will be used to convert letter grades to numerical. Grading scales vary by school. For most Colleges (not all), a 2.0 grade is equivalent to a C+.***

  3. Meet with an Academic Advisor for Course Planning

    Schedule an appointment with an academic advisor. Academic Advisors are available in the Gannon building StarZone. The lead health careers advisors are Eric Bennett, Matt Boeve, and Angela Kuhlman.

Program Layout

Admitted applicants are required to attend a mandatory program orientation that typically occurs early August. Candidates are advised to plan accordingly.

The Neurodiagnostic Technology (NDXT) program, also referred to as EEG, is offered through a partnership with other community colleges as part of the Michigan Educational Program in Collaboration (Mi-EPiC) consortium. Upon completion, students earn a Neurodiagnostic Technology Associate of Applied Science degree from Lansing Community College (LCC). The program is coordinated through the EPiC Consortium, with West Shore Community College serving as the provider partner.

Students admitted to the program begin in August. The program runs for one year across three consecutive semesters. Lecture content is delivered entirely online. In addition to online coursework, the first semester includes approximately eight face-to-face labs, and the third semester includes four face-to-face labs. Lab sessions are held at locations selected by the program and are not conducted at LCC. Clinical lab sites are typically located within a 200-mile radius of LCC’s Downtown Lansing campus. For more information about the curriculum and career opportunities, visit the consortium website.

During the Spring and Summer semesters, students complete online courses and clinical experiences. Students will be assigned to 1-2 clinical sites, typically within a 200-mile radius of LCC’s Downtown Lansing campus, though placements may occur farther away. Students should expect to drive up to 2 hours to at least one clinical site. Clinicals are located throughout Michigan’s Lower Peninsula. Students are responsible for their own transportation and associated costs. Clinicals occur two weekdays per week, between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Upon program completion, students earn a Neurodiagnostic Technology Associate of Applied Science degree from LCC. Graduates will also be eligible to take the national registry examination to be certified as a Registered Electroencephalographic Technologist (R. EEG T.).

A complete NDXT program pathway, including course layout and course sequence, is available on the college’s Degree and Certificate Program Pathways page.

Please be advised that all verbal, written, and patient care are delivered in English.

Program Cost

The approximate cost during the 2025-2026 academic year to complete all of the admission requirements at LCC is $5,561 for students receiving in-district tuition rates. Use LCC’s Tuition Cost Estimator for a detailed look at LCC course costs and rates for other tuition residencies.

Once admitted, students will pay tuition for all Neurodiagnostic Technology (NDXT) courses as established by Michigan Educational Program in Collaboration (Mi-EPiC) consortium, with Michigan Workforce Training and Education Collaborative (MWTEC) and Michigan Colleges Online (MCO) supporting course delivery. There are 15 NDXT courses that are part of the consortium totaling 33 credits. The approximate cost is $21,423 for a student receiving in-state MCO tuition rates, and $26,790.50 for out-of-state MCO tuition rates. This does not include out-of-pocket expenses like textbooks, uniforms, supplies, and transportation.

Criminal Background Check

In order for this program to be in compliance with Michigan Public Act 26 of 2006, a Criminal Background investigation is required for all students. Directions for completing a Background Check, which may include fingerprinting and drug testing, will be given at the program orientation that occurs after admission decisions are made. Please note digital fingerprinting may be required by the State of Michigan at the time of application for career licensure. To comply with State and Federal statutes, admission to this program will be denied for any of the following:

  • Any felony conviction within 15 years + three years’ probation prior to application.
  • Any misdemeanor within ten years prior to application that involved or is similar to the following:
    • Abuse, neglect, assault, battery
    • Criminal sexual conduct
    • Fraud or theft against a vulnerable adult (as defined by the Michigan penal code)

It is the student’s responsibility – prior to pursuing the program – to know whether they are prohibited from providing clinical services.

The Michigan Workforce Background Check Program provides detailed information regarding the types of crimes and their implications to employment suitability in health care facilities and agencies.

Any student who has been charged with a felony or a misdemeanor crime after admission to the program must contact the Program Director within 72 hours of the charge. Students convicted of certain crime(s) may become ineligible for clinical/externship privileges and/or professional certification/licensure, and therefore, may be dismissed from the Program.

Environmental Conditions - Standard Precautions

Applicants must be aware students in this program and profession will be exposed to blood, body tissues, and fluids. There is the potential of exposure to electrical hazards, hazardous waste materials, radiation, poisonous substances, chemicals, loud or unpleasant noises and high stress emergency situations. Students enrolled in this program and career path are at risk for exposure to blood and body fluids and transmission of blood-borne and other infectious diseases, including HIV. The Americans with Disabilities Act forbids discrimination against patients with infectious diseases; therefore, students are required to treat all patients assigned, regardless of the disease-state of the patient. Standard precautions must be followed when treating each patient.

Immunization and Clinical Requirements

Applicants admitted to this program are required to present evidence from a licensed healthcare provider that they have completed ALL of the following immunizations.

  • COVID
  • Hepatitis B
  • Influenza (flu)
  • MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella)
  • Tdap
  • Varicella

Admitted applicants must also provide the following documentation:

  • TB test results showing they are free from infection
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) certification
  • A physical from a licensed healthcare provider
  • Negative results of a 10-Panel Drug screen
  • Results of a Background Check

These requirements are in accordance with professional standards and third-party clinical site requirements. Students are responsible for the cost associated with obtaining immunizations, physicals, BLS certification, and any other items relating to clinical eligibility. Clinical hours must be completed in-full in order to successfully complete this program as mandated by the program’s accrediting body and/or professional licensure/certification governances. Students who have not met all of the required clinical requirements, including vaccinations, are not eligible to participate in this program.

Applicants should be aware some vaccinations require a series of injections. In these instances, the entire series must be complete to participate in clinical activities. Titer results showing immunity are accepted for some of the vaccinations in lieu of proof of immunization. For most students the easiest way to verify your current vaccination status is to visit the Michigan Immunization Portal and access your State of Michigan immunization record from the Michigan Care Improvement Registry (MCIR). Students are encouraged to consult with their healthcare provider before starting the program to ensure they can meet these immunization and physical requirements.

More information about these requirements and how to submit them will be provided at the program orientation that occurs after admission decisions are made; do not submit these documents prior to being instructed to do so by program administration. Contact the Program Director for questions regarding clinical requirements.

Allergies

Latex sensitivity and allergy has grown as a health care concern in recent years. Beginning one’s professional life with a latex allergy presents unique problems because of the increased need to don gloves in both medical and non-medical settings, and unavoidable direct contact with products containing latex rubber (gloves, syringes, tubing, etc.), or by inhaling powder from latex gloves. Applicants with latex sensitivity and allergy are therefore encouraged to consult with their primary care physician to ensure their health and safety while participating in the program.

Insurance

Be aware Lansing Community College does not provide accident and health insurance coverage for students. The College provides liability insurance coverage for students in practicum for injuries and damages they cause to others. It does not cover injuries students sustain as a result of their own actions. Students must use personal funds or personal medical insurance as a primary medical coverage payment if accident or injury occurs or if emergency treatment is required.
