Honors Program Awards
Each year, Lansing Community College offers up to 36 Honors Program
Awards to new, currently enrolled, or returning students who have
demonstrated outstanding academic achievement and plan to complete
a two-year transfer curriculum at LCC and then transfer to a four-year
institution to pursue a bachelor's degree. Although students following a
transfer program may plan to earn a general associate, associate in arts,
or associate in science degree, their primary objective in attending LCC
is to complete general education, required, and recommended courses
in preparation for transfer to a four-year college or university.
Lists of common transfer majors may be found at
www.lcc.edu/catalog/degree_certificateprograms/current/aaas.
The awards are offered for a maximum of five semesters over a period
of two consecutive years. Renewal each semester is contingent upon
the recipient meeting all award requirements. Each recipient will have
$1177 applied directly to his or her account to reduce the balance for
each fall and spring semester covered by the award and $589 if he or
she chooses to use the award during a summer. These amounts will
cover approximately 16 billing hours in Fall and Spring Semesters and 8
