Admissions Policy
Lake Michigan College offers an "open door" admissions
policy for individuals who are interested in and capable of benefiting
from the post-secondary experiences. Admission to the College
is open to:
- Any high school graduate or GED recipient, or
- Any person who is 18 years of age or older, or
- Any person who demonstrates Ability to Benefit on an approved
College assessment instrument. For individuals who utilize the
Ability to Benefit option for admissions who are under the age
of 18, Provisional Admission will be offered until that individual's
high school class has graduated.
Individuals who are still in high school may enroll in classes
at the College during regular high school hours with permissions
of their high school guidance officer.
Guest Student status will
be granted to individuals who attend other colleges and universities
upon completion of the Guest Student Application. Guest students
may enroll in course work for which all stated pre-requisites
have been met.
If you are a high school junior or senior and want to take an
LMC course for college credit (dual
enrollment courses), you must submit the appropriate documents.
See your high school counselor or contact the LMC Admissions Office
for details.
Freshman Seminar
If you are a student coming to college for the first time
and taking more than six (6) credit hours at Lake Michigan College,
you will need to attend a Freshman Seminar course (CLS
100) to help you learn important information about program, activities,
and services at Lake Michigan College.
This one-credit class will provide you with the
opportunity to:
- ask questions
- meet members of the College staff
- update study skills
- acquaint you with college services
Students who score at or above approved levels
on the college placement tests may request a waiver from Freshman
Seminar classes through a counselor/advisor. For more information,
please contact Student Services.
Interested in applying? Read over our enrollment
process, then talk with a Student Services Generalist to see
how Lake Michigan can help you change your mind and your life.

CLEP Testing
The College Level Examination Program (CLEP), sponsored by the
College Entrance Examination Board, affords students and prospective
students the opportunity to demonstrate academic proficiency at
the freshman/sophomore college level in specific subject areas.
(While the CLEP does offer general examinations, Lake Michigan
College does not accept these examinations for college credit.)
The specific subject area examinations measure factual knowledge
and understanding, as well as the ability to see relationships
and apply principles to new problems. They are essentially end-of-course
tests developed for widely-taught undergraduate courses. The Assessment
Center is located in Room A203. For further information, call
(269) 927-8100 ext. 5243.
