Mattoon, IL-(Effingham Radio)-Lake Land College Summer enrollment is up nearly 9% as students take advantage of the historic $100 tuition guarantee and flexible scheduling options.
With more than 1,400 students enrolled for summer, Lake Land is experiencing an 8.8% increase in headcount and an 8.1% in full time equivalency or FTE.
In March 2022, the college announced in-district tuition would be reduced to $100 per credit hour for summer and the academic year beginning this fall.
“We are pleased to see students and community members take advantage of the historic $100 tuition guarantee opportunity. We know our students are resilient and applaud them for getting ahead this summer and returning to their goals of a college education,” Lake Land College President Josh Bullock said.
Of the students enrolled for summer, 34% are enrolled in workforce ready programs and 37% are enrolled in transfer ready programs. Sixty percent of these summer students are taking all of their classes online.
Because of this flexibility, more students have been able to pursue degree and non-degree programs in ways that are most beneficial to their lifestyle.
