What you need to know before Signing up for a College Now Course
Financial Aid Implications
As a student registering for a College Now course, you are attempting college credit. The credit, your final grade, and/or whether you dropped a class after registration are part of your permanent LCC transcript. Financial Aid analysts use this information to calculate your Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards and how long it will take to complete your program (150% Maximum Attempted Credit).
Financial Aid analysts calculate all attempted college credit even though you were in high school and didn’t receive financial aid.
It is important that you enroll in College Now courses purposefully, taking time to consider future college degrees or certificates you may pursue and whether your College Now courses will meet the specific degree or certificate requirements (or prerequisites). LCC's Financial Aid website includes further information about the potential impact of College Now credits on Financial Aid.
