Transient Student (Incoming)

A student at another college or university can take classes at LCCC for credit at the home institution.

  1. Complete the LCCC Application if the student has never applied or completed an LCCC credit course. 
  2. Complete and submit the Transient Student Registration Form. Students will need to:
    1. Determine which courses they plan to register for at LCCC. (Learn more about selecting courses.) Consult with the home institution's academic advisor regarding course selection and equivalency. The Transferology system may also be used.
    2. Upload a copy of their unofficial transcript on the form.
    3. Students who have earned AP, IB or CLEP credit, please also make sure to upload a copy of the official score report. (Do not upload any document containing SSN.)
    4. Read the Acknowledgment Statement on the form, check the box, and click the Submit button to submit the form to Enrollment Services.
  3. Pay tuition bill.
  4. Send the LCCC transcript back to the student's college or university. Complete the process to have their transcript sent to their college or university so they can be evaluated and awarded credit for the course. The process can be completed at any time after you register for your class.

New students must create a MyCampus account after completing the application for admission. Students can check schedules, tuition information, and grade reports through MyCampus.
