The online LCCC Donor Scholarship Application for 2026-2027 LCCC Scholarships is available now. The priority screening date is April 1 for most scholarships, so plan ahead and apply early!

 

If you haven't filed your 2026-2027 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid), that's also a good idea to complete now so that you are ready for next year!

 

Are you transferring to another institution for the 2026-2027 academic year? Check with that institution - it's probably also a good time to apply for scholarships there!

Student ID Cards


If you don't have your LCCC Student ID Card yet, the fastest and easiest way for you to get it is to request it online! Use your own photo, and then either pick up your card at your convenience, or we will mail it right to you!

Enrollment Verification


Do you need proof of your enrollment and credits for insurance? You may need to obtain an Enrollment Verification. You can access a ready-to-print Enrollment Verification from the Self-Service app in your myLCCC account by going to Self-Service > Academic Tab> Enrollment Verification.

Spring 2026 Graduates:


If you are finishing your program or a credential this semester, don't forget to apply to graduate! It's a good idea to touch base with your Student Success Coach first to verify your program requirements; you can do this by sending them an email, or scheduling an appointment through Navigate. In your myLCCC account click on Self-Service > Graduation Overview, and apply next to your completed credential.


After you apply to graduate, you will receive information from the Office of the Registrar on how to sign up to participate in the 2026 Commencement Ceremony and how to order regalia. Be sure to monitor the LCCC Commencement webpage for more information.

Resource Spotlight: Learning Commons

Students studying

We know - college classes can be tough. That's where the Learning Commons comes in!

 

The Learning Commons offers academic support through tutoring services, Canvas skills, basic computer skills, and academic success skills assistance. There are trained tutors available in many subjects to help you achieve your goals. All students can benefit from the support of a tutor. All Learning Commons services are free to students.


NetTutor is accessed through your class navigation in each course in Canvas.

 

Walk-in tutoring, tutoring appointments, asynchronous writing consultations, and online tutoring are available. The Learning Commons is located in the Ludden Library at the main campus in Cheyenne or RM 135 on the Laramie campus.
