When Should I Apply for Admission?
You may apply up to one year in advance for admission to the start
date you desire. (If you have not yet completed high school, see the
requirements).
If your application materials arrive too late for the start date
you indicate on your application, you will automatically be considered
for the next start date. Final decision on start date rests with Lansing
Community College.
Orientation
Orientation is a mandatory formal program of
introduction to Lansing Community College. Orientation for new
international students is held approximately two weeks before classes
begin. During the orientation program you will receive information about
USDHS regulations related to international students, LCC services,

Students must attend orientation in order to be properly
prepared to register for classes. Additional information regarding
orientation will be mailed with the student's acceptance letter.

Housing
Nearly all students live in the Lansing area where student rental property is plentiful. Many Lansing city bus routes stop at the campus, so travel to classes is easy. The Student Life and Leadership Office offers a housing information service. This service consists of listings from property owners regarding available housing (type, location, cost), and listings from students looking for others to share housing. These listings are posted on the bulletin boards in the hallway outside the Student Life and Leadership Office and are updated weekly. This information is also available at http://www.lcc.edu/studentlife/housing/.
It is recommended that new students arrive in the Lansing area 1 or 2 weeks before orientation to have adequate time to arrange for housing. Students should bring adequate funds to pay for a hotel room and meals while looking for housing. It is customary to pay a minimum of two months rent to obtain housing. The college does not maintain housing units for students, nor does it enter into third party contracts or supervise off-campus housing. Home stay placements are not arranged by LCC.
