Plan Now to Get the Classes You Need
Due to unprecedented state budget cuts, you may find that it's more difficult than it used to be to get the classes you need. LMC rarely eliminates classes completely, but you will find a reduction in the number of sections offered. Since there is no way of knowing how long the budget crisis will last, it is very important that you plan carefully and well in advance for upcoming terms. And be sure to enroll early!
The good news? You will still find the classes you need to transfer to CSU and UC campuses, and to complete career and technical programs — and the same excellent quality in instruction and services.

Graduation is Finally Here!
If you are approved or pending approval for graduation, you should have received a letter informing you of your status. It is now time to pick up your cap and gown at the LMC bookstore — see the bookstore website for complete information. This year we have changed the cap and gown color to black. If you have a gown from a previous year, you will need to purchase a new one. Fresh-flower graduation leis may be preordered. More information
Fall Registration is Under Way
Continuing students have been enrolling in fall classes since May 4th. If you have not yet checked your priority registration date on InSite/WebAdvisor, we highly recommend that you check it now and register as soon as you are permitted to do so. More information about registration
