LCU’s Dual Enrollment Program (LEAP) is a great opportunity for high school juniors and seniors to get a practical and affordable jump on their college education.
Through the LEAP dual enrollment program, students like you have the opportunity to enroll and receive credit for college courses at a discounted rate. LEAP students can take up to 12 credit hours at $99 per credit hour (some fees may apply)—that’s almost 75 percent cheaper than most college classes. Beginning your college journey early can give you a jumpstart on your bachelor’s degree and can even help you decide what you want to major in. If that sounds good to you, give us a call. We look forward to meeting you!
