Spring 2026 Registration

Course Offering Formats

Fall course offerings fit into six types.

• HYF – Hyflex: Offers the flexibility for students to choose how they will participate for each class session: in-person, online during the meeting time, or online asynchronously.
• ON - Online: Traditional asynchronous online courses.
• ORT - Partial Scheduled Lecture: Online Real-Time (ORT) courses with some regularly scheduled online meeting day(s) and times.
• ORT - Full Scheduled Lecture: Online Real-Time (ORT) courses where all instruction is delivered online during designated meeting day(s) and times.
• OH - Online Hybrid: Courses with some regularly scheduled in-person classroom instruction along with online coursework and activities.
• Face-to-Face: Traditional in-person courses with all instruction delivered in the classroom.

Student and academic services will continue to offer remote options. Please check in regularly to see if services are being transitioned back to face-to-face.

LCC remains in close communication with our local health departments, and the college will continue to adjust its plans as needed to protect the health and safety of our students, employees and community.

How to Register

To register, Log into Banner, and click the Student tab. Then click the Registration link to drop or add course(s).

Many LCC courses are taught in a shorter timeframe than the traditional full semester teaching period and provide the same amount of credit. See the Academic Calendar for all start and end dates, and the teaching periods.

Students must be admitted to the college and complete the required steps prior to registering.

Students should determine that all of the required course prerequisites have been met and seats are available.

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 by logging into Banner.

Students should drop online until the deadline for each teaching period. Refunds are available based on the Refund Schedule listed in the Academic Calendar.

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. The last day to request a change of major or program of study is February 23, 2026.
