Distance Learning (DL)

Students enrolled in Distance Learning classes will be expected to follow all of the guidelines listed in the general catalog for Lewis-Clark State College.   Available classes are listed on WarriorWeb under search for classes (select Distance Learning under "locations" to view only web-based classes). 

Distance Learning offers an alternative delivery method of classroom instruction to students with time and geographic constraints. We offer classes online over the Internet; as hybrids, utilizing both classroom and web instruction; and interactive video conferencing, which allows for classroom instruction in one site to be transmitted to additional sites.

DL courses follow the same academic calendar dates and registration procedures as on-campus classes.

DL classes are as challenging as regular classes.  However, they also require a large degree of self-discipline and organization.  Falling behind in these classes will impact a student's grade, which will be reflected on a permanent college transcript.

To register for DL classes, students must submit:

1. Dual Credit Application.

2. Part-time fees

Fees for DL classes are regular part-time fees plus any applicable program and/or lab fees and are payable prior to the first day of the college semester.  Late fees will be charged if payment is not made or alternate arrangements agreed upon.  

The refund policy for terminating DL courses is listed in the LCSC General Catalog.   Refunds are prorated and determined by which week of the semester the student officially submits the paperwork to drop the class.

If students register for English or math classes, ACT or SAT test scores must be submitted.  Special requirements may exist in order for a student to enroll in a class, such as a prerequisite class.  If prerequisites exist, they are listed in the LCSC general catalog under the course description for each class offered.

High school students registering for DL classes need to submit all of their paperwork and fees to the Office of New Student Recruitment, located in Reid Centennial Hall, Room 114.  DL semesters follow the same dates as on-campus classes.

It is up to the student's high school to determine if a class will be accepted as high school credit.  Lewis-Clark State College does not make that determination.  Students need to meet with their high school counselor and the LCSC High School Relations Counselor prior to registration to determine which classes will be expected and what the best choice of classes would be for their chosen career interests.

Credit Transferability

Classes which apply toward LCSC's lower division general education core requirements are recommended for high school students.  Most courses will apply to the general education core requirements at in- and out-of-state colleges and universities.
