How to get started with Running Start:

• Attend an information session with your parent or guardian (mandatory for new students).
  Complete college placement assessment at LCC (email for current schedule). LCC will let you know whether you’re eligible, based on your assessment scores. Try Sample Test Questions from Compass.
• Once you qualify, complete Running Start and college application forms and submit to the LCC Running Start office (ask about application deadlines). We'll let you know if you’ve been accepted into the program.
• With your high school counselor, discuss Running Start participation, complete the Running Start registration form, and select LCC classes that are eligible for high school credit.
• Meet with an LCC advisor, review Running Start class schedule and register for college.
