Registration is an important part of the academic process. It is the practice of LCC to devote as much time as is necessary to preregistration and registration advising to help students select and pursue an education program consistent with their abilities and goals.
Students are responsible for reading the Lamar Community College catalog and understanding the curriculum requirements for their majors. Students also are responsible for checking their programs periodically to determine whether they are fulfilling all requirements.
Registration Procedure
All students, whether new, reentering, or continuing, are expected to register on the dates and at the times designated in the college calendar. Students must complete the steps listed under Admissions Procedures to be eligible for registration. The Office of Admissions & Records provides directions for registration. These are intended to guide the student from the initial consultation with the advisor to the completion of registration.
Preregistration
All LCC students who are planning to attend the ensuing semester should meet with their faculty advisors during the scheduled preregistration period. Some benefits of preregistration include bypassing long lines, ensuring availability of choice classes, and having the option of returning to campus on the first day of scheduled classes. Preregistration begins on April 1 for the summer & fall semesters and November 1 for the spring semester.
LCC offers Summer Preregistration Days (for fall semester). New students are encouraged to attend one of these days. See LCC academic calendar for scheduled preregistration dates.
Online registration
Students are encouraged to register using the MyCommunityEd quick links available on the Welcome and Student tabs in Lope Access, LCC's student/staff portal. Lope Access provides additional assistance for students to check their progress in their programs of study (DegreeCheck), confirm their schedules, print transcripts, and check their student accounts as well.
Payments, adjustments, and refunds
When a student registers for each semester, all charges (tuition, fees, room and board) are due at the time of registration. Credit will be extended only in those instances where the College has an existing contract with an outside agency (this includes various forms of federal and state financial aid), or where prior arrangements have been made with the Business Office.
Students who have an unpaid balance due from a previous semester will be automatically dropped from classes during the first week of the current term. Students who have applied for and have been awarded financial aid must pay the difference, if any, between the actual cost and amount awarded unless they have made prior arrangements with the Business Office.
If a student adds a class (or classes) creating additional charges, all charges are due at that time. If a student drops the class(es), he or she may expect to receive a refund check approximately 6-8 weeks after the Business Office the student completes the appropriate paperwork. This policy applies to all students.
