Class sizes vary by discipline and the availability of facilities and equipment. Certain
disciplines, such as Nursing, must adhere to external standards that limit class size.
Other disciplines, such as Machine Trades, Welding, and Automotive Technology, set
class sizes based on available equipment. Most LCC classes range from 15 to 35 students.
In 2024-25, LCC's student-faculty ratio was 13.33 for all students, and 11.24 for
state-supported students.*
The student-faculty ratio indicates how many full-time equivalent students were on
campus for every full-time equivalent faculty member. Full-time equivalency is determined
by the number of credits students take and the number of credits faculty teach.
