Open-Entry Courses/Modules
Lansing Community College has offered a limited number of
courses in an open-entry format to provide options for students
with unique schedules. In support of the Michigan Technical
Education Center (M-TEC SM ) initiative at the West Campus, LCC
expanded its open-entry offerings to include self-directed learning
modules. A module—a component of an approved college
course—is designated using a course number followed by a letter
of the alphabet, e.g., ELTE100A.
All open-entry sections have flexible start and end dates which are
defined by a Learning Contract. Open-entry courses and modules
are delivered in a variety of formats, including self-directed, online,
lecture, lab, or a combination thereof. For students and employers,
open entry means expanded access to training options in aviation,
computer-aided drafting and design, electrical technology,
employability skills, CPR refresher training, manufacturing,
personal enhancement, welding, and more.
Student Learning Contract
A Learning Contract is an agreement negotiated by the student
and the instructor/department which must be completed and
approved prior to enrollment in an open-entry section. This contract
clarifies the expectations for open-entry study and establishes start
and end dates for course/module completion. The Program
Department reserves the right to invalidate a contract if a student
does not enroll in an open-entry course/module within two (2)
business days of signing a Learning Contract.
Prerequisites
Questions about course/module prerequisites should be directed to
the department delivering the open-entry section. Prerequisites are
listed in the syllabus for each course/module at
http://toucana.lansing.cc.mi.us/ocsweb1.nsf.
Costs
Open-entry sections are priced differently depending on the subject
matter, delivery method, and materials and equipment used.
Where billing hours and course fee are listed, the standard $25
registration fee will be applied to each semester students are
enrolled. All other open-entry sections use a Special Section Rate,
which includes all fees and is the same regardless of residency
status.
Alternative Delivery
Registration
Students may register for open-entry sections at any time during
the semester provided:
• the course is open for enrollment,
• space is available,
• all required prerequisite assessments and/or coursework have
been successfully completed,
• orientation and/or submission of records, if required, have
been successfully completed, and
• a Learning Contract has been completed and approved.
To register for an open-entry section, contact the department
at the telephone number and/or web site in the course listing
below.
Payment
Students are responsible for payment of classes/modules in which
they are enrolled. A student may be administratively dropped if
provision for payment is not made within 24 hours. The student
must provide verification of provision for payment to the
department before beginning study.
Students should not assume they will be automatically dropped
from a class or classes for non-payment, as there are many factors
which will determine whether and when a student is dropped for
non-payment.
Drops/Refunds
Students are responsible for dropping all courses/modules they do
not intend to start or complete. Students have up through the day
before the start date recorded in the Learning Contract to drop an
open-entry course/module and receive a 100% refund. The student
will not receive a grade, and a record of attempting the class will
not appear on the academic record.
Students dropping an open-entry course on or after the Learning
Contract start date will receive a 0% refund, regardless of when
they enrolled in the course.
