Lewiston offers a traditional campus experience with more than 125 four-year academic degrees and two- and one-year professional-technical degrees and certificates. Traditional, non-tradition and transfer students find the beautiful campus and mild climate comforting as they attend the most affordable college/university in Idaho.

LCSC features a private school feel with small classroom sizes, no graduate assistants teaching courses, and academic excellence, but at a public school price.

Lewis-Clark State College-Coeur d'Alene (LCSC-Cd'A) is a transfer degree completion center for Lewis-Clark State College. In collaboration with North Idaho College (NIC), LCSC-Cd'A offers 13 bachelor's degree programs in the areas of Communication, Social Science, Education, Nursing, and Business to residents of Idaho’s Panhandle. 

NIC students as well as residents who have completed an associate degree at other accredited institutions transfer to LCSC-Cd’A or LCSC-Lewiston.
