towards graduation. If the student intends to register for courses requiring prerequisites that have been fulfilled at another institution other than the one granting the degree, transcripts for those college or universities must be submitted for evaluation.

Conditional Admission of Transfer Students

A transfer student who does not have on file the official transcript(s) from each postsecondary institution attended including any additional documents required by the institution, may be granted conditional admission. No transfer student will be allowed to enroll for a second semester unless all required admission documents are received by LSCC prior to the pre-registration period for the second consecutive semester. A student who does not have the transcript(s) on file when pre- registration begins and intends to enroll in a math or English course must present a transcript or grade report to satisfy prerequisite requirements for these courses. If all required admission records have not been received by the College prior to issuance of first semester grades, the grades will be reported on the transcript; however, no official transcript will be issued until all transcripts are received. The transcript will note, “Continued enrollment denied pending receipt of admission records.”

C. Transient Students

Any student from another college may attend LSCC as a transient student during any semester. A transient student is a student attending college utilizing a letter of transience or letter of good standing. The letter should contain the courses approved for enrollment by th e student’s parent institution and a notation that the courses will be accepted in transfer. The letter of transience is valid for the single semester towards which it was issued. A transient student is ineligible for student financial aid or scholarships. A student wishing to enroll in an additional semester without a letter of transience must meet the criteria for transfer students as stated in the college catalog. A transient student must provide an appropriate form of identification as required by policy 801.01, Admissions General.

D. Accelerated High School Students

LSCC offers qualified high school juniors and seniors the chance to enroll for courses which fulfill college requirements. Upon graduation from high school, the student may continue enrollment at LSCC or transfer the college credits to another postsecondary institution.
