Lone Star College System News

Published on: April 06, 2016 Are you ready to take that next step? Join Lone Star College April 14-16 for Open House events with free food and prizes at all six of its college locations.
Lone Star College is hosting an Open House to give prospective students and their families the chance to meet with LSC faculty and staff to learn about the many educational opportunities available at LSC. In addition, visitors will have a chance to win prizes, and free food and giveaways will be offered at all of the events.
We often hear students tell stories about feeling nervous the first time they step onto a college campus, said Dr. Stephen C. Head, LSC chancellor. Attending an open house allows them to get a sense of the college experience in a very casual and relaxed way.
LSC offers high-quality higher education that is close to home and costs a fraction of four-year universities like Texas A&M University or the University of Houston.
Studies show that students who complete their first two years of higher education at a community college like Lone Star College and then transfer to a four-year institution are more likely to graduate with a bachelors degree than those who begin their college careers at a four-year university, said Head.
LSC offers many academic transfer degrees to help students launch successful careers, along with workforce and career training.
Representatives will be on hand to answer questions about degree options, admissions and the application process. Financial aid information and assistance with the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) application process will also be available to help students learn about options available to help pay for college. Student organizations will also be on hand to share what campus life is like, along with the numerous clubs and intramural sports that are available.
The Open House schedule is:
