First Semester Checklist |
 |
Make sure you know the name of your advisor and how to reach him/her (hint: Warrior Web Student Planning - Plan & Schedule - Advising). |
 |
Arrange for delivery of your final high school transcripts, college transcripts, and/or AP scores to LCSC. |
 |
Find out what you will need to pay (tuition, fees, room, board) and when it is due (hint: day five of each semester). Statements are posted to WarriorWeb in July (fall) or January (spring). |
 |
Touch base with the Financial Aid Office – Let them know you have registered for classes. Make sure you have submitted any necessary documents they may need. |
 |
Check your LCMail account regularly. You may receive messages from a variety of LCSC offices, even before classes begin. Respond to messages you receive. |
 |
If you need to provide documentation of health insurance, be sure to take care of this early. |
 |
Arrange housing far in advance of the start of school. If you are on a waitlist, consider finding an alternative option as a backup plan. |
 |
Get Microsoft Office for free! Go to the following website for information: /it/for-students/ |
 |
Plan to attend Orientation. You don’t want to miss this event where you will meet your classmates, learn about LCSC policies and processes, and acclimate to campus. |
 |
Purchase all required books and supplies before classes begin. Wait until you start classes to buy optional supplies…you will find out what you need once you attend each class. |
 |
 Planning to work while in college? There are employment opportunities both off and on campus for students. Check with the Student Employment and Career Center for more information! |
 |
Print out your class schedule during the week before you start classes (up to that point, locations may still change). Student Planning – Plan & Schedule in self service WarriorWeb |
 |
Once you arrive on campus, practice “walking your schedule” so you know how to get from one point to the next. |
 |
Get lots of rest before your first week of school – it is usually exhausting! |
