New Students Need to Apply Now for Lake-Sumter Community Colleges Spring Term

LEESBURG - It's not too early to think about getting ready for Lake-Sumter Community Colleges spring classes, even though they dont start until January 5, 2006. Increases in enrollment make it more important than ever to start the application process early.

Open registration starts on November 21. This is the first opportunity for new students, or those who have not taken a course in over a year, to register online. Though registration continues through January 4, the selection of classes, days and times decrease each day. In order to lock in the desired schedule, the LSCC staff suggests the following timeline to complete the admission process: during October, (1) apply for admission; (2) submit transcripts and other required documents; and (3) take placement tests. Through October and the first three weeks of November, (4) complete new student orientation; and (5) meet with an academic advisor. Now you are ready to register! The spring schedule of classes will be posted online by October 19. Copies will be available on LSCC campuses by the first of November.

Students interested in financial aid who are determined eligible and have completed all steps to have their federal and state financial aid awarded by November 28, may use this aid to pay for spring term fees. Through the generosity of area residents, organizations and companies, the LSCC Foundation also awards numerous scholarships. Spring term students must apply for these by October 31.

All registration information, except for class schedules, is available online now at: www.lscc.edu. For additional information call: 568-0001 or 352-787-3747.
