Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I get an LCSC transcript or copy of my LCSC grades? You can request official copies of your transcript from the Office of the Registrar only.  Currently enrolled students can access their grades and unofficial transcripts online via WarriorWeb.
     
  • Where do I get a copy of my previous school’s transcript? From the previous school (college and high school). LCSC cannot provide copies of other school’s academic records.
     
  • How do I verify my enrollment or degree? LCSC has authorized the National Student Clearinghouse to provide degree and enrollment verifications.  Simply use the "Enrollment verification" link on WarriorWeb to access the NSC.  They may also be contacted directly at  www.studentclearinghouse.org, (703) 742-4200, fax: (703) 742-4239, or service@studentclearinghouse.org.
     
  • What is a credit hour?  For a typical LCSC semester (15-16 weeks), 1 credit hour corresponds to 3 hours of student work per week (e.g. 50 minute lecture w/ 2 hours of homework/study).  For example, a course meets MWF for 50 minute lectures and the faculty assigns 6 hours of out-of-class work per week.  Therefore, approximately 9 hours of student work per week is devoted to the class. Hence, the course is assigned 3 credit hours.
     
  • How can I earn Academic Forgiveness?  Students can petition for Academic Forgiveness only after a minimum of 5 years has elapsed since the course work to be forgiven was completed.  See the college catalog for further details.
     
  • How do I file a petition?  Petitions are used to request a special action by the college to override existing policy (request a general education core substitution, request academic forgiveness, register for more than 21 credits, etc.).  Petition forms can be obtained at the Office of the Registrar or the division offices.  Fill out the form, pay the fee, and submit it to the appropriate office for consideration.  Instructions for completing the petition process are located on the back of the form.
     
  • Who can I speak to about transfer credits from another school? A transfer credit evaluator in the Office of Admission.  All transfer transcripts submitted to LCSC are evaluated by the Office of Admission.
     
  • How do I change my residency statusYou can apply to change the status of your residency at the Office of the Registrar.  The application must be returned to the Office of the Registrar prior to the first day of classes for the semester for which it is to take effect.  Decision on the granting of residency status is not retroactive.
     
  • How do I change my address or name with the college?  You must submit an Address and Name Change Form to the Office of the Registrar to change your local address.  Filling out this form does not establish you as an Idaho resident for fee purposes.  Home (permanent) addresses can be changed on WarriorWeb.  You can also submit a diploma address by sending a letter or LCMail message to the Office of the Registrar.
     
  • What is a "hold" and how can I find out if I have a hold on my account?  A hold is a restriction on your record which will stop you from accessing certain information (usually registration).  Holds typically involve financial concerns (parking fine, library fine, Controller's Office hold, etc.).  You can determine if you have a hold with the "My holds/restrictions" link on WarriorWeb.
